It sounds like you’re at a good point to join a campaign with actual people in all honesty.

It’s easier said than done, but there are newbie friendly groups out there who’ll more than happily help you fill in the gaps and I think you might find it more rewarding.

Thank you! Really clear and appreciate you taking the time to explain!

Can someone explain like I’m stupid on kernel level anti cheat and why I should watch out for it? Not a dig at all, a genuine question!

I’m hopeful but cautious.

For me the big issue with Starfield was the obsession with massive maps/worlds etc that were either empty or filled with junk. The travel system and loading screens also made the game as a whole completely disjointed.

The only reason I’m hopeful is the continuous map as opposed to content being spread way too thin on thousands of planets. If they get the content more dense then hopefully it’ll be at least half decent.

I’m totally with you on Bethesda / Microsoft trying to get the most money out of the least effort and that’s my biggest reason I’m not getting hyped for it. The goal for them is currently the most cash rather than making the best game possible. Annoyingly this has infected pretty much all big game studios these days. Ironically, that approach is better for the short term but horrendous for the long term outlook.

I’ll be sticking to the golden rule though: NO PREORDERS!

Pretty interesting read

Anything by the sounds providers is my jam. The album with surreal is great, although I do prefer “an evening with the sound providers”.

It’s kinda chill hop but a bit more jazzy.

Nope.

I’m so sick of click bait.

Does it come pre-installed on any phones? Might be a reason the downloads are inflated.

Only pulled a couple shots but it’s definitely an improvement in workflow. Not having to temp surf is nice and the auto pre-infusion is a plus!

My only annoyance so far is that I like to rinse my portafilter out after I’ve knocked the puck and it does the pre-infusion so it takes a little longer. Not really a dealbreaker though!

It is! Pretty straight forward to install, but there’s a part in the instructions which mentions “be careful and don’t lose this screw into the group head as it will be a real pain to sort”. I would highly reccomend sticking to that instruction…unfortunately I didn’t!

Risk of Rain 2 for me. I’ve “finished” the final boss but there’s so much more to unlock and do in that game that I’m not sure I’ll ever be done with it. Absolute blast to play with friends especially when you get those miracle runs where you get all the items that are amazing for your respective classes!

I’ve been drawn back into modded terraria recently and loving every minute. Highly recommend modded if you’ve played before or if you’re new to terraria magic storage is an amazing addition that doesn’t change the core experience.

I’ll give it a go, thank you!

I think overall the devs are doing a great job but this update feels like it could have done with a bit more testing before full release. Think i might have to sign up to the test flight to put my money where my mouth is!

£50 seems like a lot, is it worth it over emulation?

I’ve not seen anything but I’d imagine Ukraine is targeting further depots/storage facilities to continue pressure on Russian supply lines.

At least that’s what I’m hoping for, slava Ukraine!

Anyone got a non paywall link?

I used to be super loyal to brand name ketchup but in the UK at least, the brands are taking the piss with their pricing. Since then I tried supermarket own brand stuff and for me it tastes miles better and I think it has more % of tomatoes vs brands.

Not saying you’re wrong! Just my experience recently :)

Honestly, I’m surprised it’s that many.
