  1. You get a free pass LeeπŸ˜…
  2. I wouldn't start crying about it just yet. It's just one 'review' from a guy who hasn't played the game and whose whole schtick is "I wish it was the 80s". Never trust someone nostalgic for the 80s πŸ˜…
  3. A crappy weekend of weather meant I actually managed to find some time for gaming and I pretty much, other than a bit of PUBG with a friend from the bookshop, played Zero Seivert as much as I could. I am totally addicted to this little game. Its so brutal but every time I die I want to jump straight back in πŸ™ƒ Top down Stalker meets Tarkov and I'm loving it.
  4. Nice to see you getting this up and running @Lurchzy and yep, DnD Beyond is definitely the best site to use to set up characters. I take it you're doing 5e DnD? Are you using another site for visual representation of players or not going with that? What campaign are you doing? Who's DM? How many ppl are you expecting or hoping for? I'm in between sessions at the moment but I'll have to check if I can commit! If I think of anything else I'll be back πŸ™‚
  5. Working from home on a Thursday allowed me a quick 40 minutes during lunch break. The time flew by and that's always a good sign. It runs well and I managed to extract without dying. Although I'm doing rookie settings for now until I'm used to the movement, shooting and medicating. Lovely little game.
  6. There are still some out there who think the idea of men admitting to, or discussing mental health is a sign of weakness. It's the opposite. Like has been said above, fair play to Dele and the like for their bravery. It's a tough world for a lot of people for a lot of different reasons and the more we understand and help each other we can at least make our part of it that little bit better. I feel this community is generally pretty good at that or I wouldn't be here. That and getting to have the occasional row πŸ˜…
  7. Picked this up yesterday, the pixel games are on fire lately
  8. Personally mate I think it's all moot at this point, we're beyond doing anything now more than mitigating the worst effects. I'm glad I don't have kids.
  9. I don't care about what protestors are doing or Sadiq Khan. Totally irrelevant. I'm also not a debate lord and so this is just me saying my piece. You can think what you like my friend πŸ™‚ BP and Shell know whats coming, I promise you that.
  10. If its used as an excuse then yes its a cop out. How many people live in China and the UK? How long has China been industrialised compared with this country? You do know that China is the workshop of the world doing our dirty work? Come on mate, how many shitty businesses in this country use China to make their tat? So yes, all countries need to sort their shit out but yeah its called whataboutery and its a cop out when we start the old "it's not just us" game, we practically started it all off πŸ™‚
  11. China is shit, what's new. So are we sunshine πŸ™‚
  12. That's some of the most idiotic shit I've ever read. You'll be sticking your head in the ground until kingdom come as far as I can see. Its not just heatwaves ffs but I'll leave you to it, whatever fits your own personal narrative. Nothing personal both James btw I'm beyond arguing with backward thinking idiocy, you play right into the hands of the cunts who are destroying this world. Also, using China as a cop out is weak as fuck. Let's find someone else worse than ourselves so we don't have to do anything. Pathetic. Fear mongering versus sweeping under the carpet lol, we're truly fucked when ppl can't see what's happening right in front of their eyes. This is me mildly annoyed but then I'm in a rich country that will suffer a lot less than a lot of very poor people all around the globe. So sick of this country. Full of conspiracy nuts too afraid to acknowledge that it is capitalism, colonialism and consumerism that's fucked us....apparently no it's the lizard people innit fml πŸ˜…πŸ˜­ Time will tell and I've never been more certain of anything in my life. I had a beer tonight πŸ™ˆ
  13. Totally get that, and we all know the climate crisis won't affect the rich as much as the rest of us. You're right not to trust media, it's all owned by billionaires, its their agenda and too many people fall for the narratives they create. I don't blame the younger generation having doubts about these things, it's a pretty scary future unless something drastically changes. I'm a glass half full kind of person but I'm very worried about how it's all going to play out...
  14. Go and read the history of how electricity was first rolled out in this country. If that's anything to go by then yeah good luck πŸ˜…
  15. Oh PES what did they do to you πŸ˜”πŸ˜­πŸ˜…
  16. It's an interesting topic, I certainly have no trust in any of the corporations and their plans for our future. AI would be super useful, machine learning already is, but unfortunately how we as a species organise our society, economically, politically and socially is pretty much unfit for the challenges we face. I'd say the climate threat will escalate a lot quicker than ppl realise and if you see how we're dealing with that then good luck with managing AI...
  17. I'm still more scared of human beings, just take a look at the world right now πŸ™‚
  18. I wish neither of these companies were involved in publishing games, it's all so stupid and anti-consumer. The triple A space is all about profit, and short term and short sighted profit at that. Its not about a love for making great games, it's just cynical, exploitative, soulless and I'm pretty sick of it. It's nothing new though. A recent Dice to Pixels episode goes into the demise of Sega, and I recommend watching it, very interesting πŸ™‚
  19. EA Sports, its in the name πŸ™ˆπŸ˜…
  20. It a bit like old school Gauntlet maybe
  21. They say the album with Nico and the banana peel cover is Velvet Underground's best work. Personally I prefer the Loaded album, which is pretty much just Lou Reed by that point, and is full of amazing songs. I was going to put up Oh Sweet Nuthin but noticed Black Crowes did a cover of it...so I'm going to give it a listen now see how it compares πŸ™‚
