Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

Yep, I finished it yesterday and thought it was superb. Really strong characters that I’ve become invested in, an intriguing overarching conspiracy, fun self-contained mysteries per episode and just the right level of humour. Mitchell’s really shown his drama chops in this too - there were a few mom...

Re: I think i've been 'hacked'

If you haven’t already, I’d do a deep virus and malware scan of all your devices where you’ve accessed Amazon or your email. I’d imagine sorting out Amazon shouldn’t be too hard when you finally get through to someone, as presumably you’ll have previous emails from them where you can prove who you a...

I did feel slightly bad being the cat's paw that thunked the metronome. :lol:

Re: Starfield has a release date

I've very much enjoyed my replay of the base game, but Shattered Space doesn't do anything to sway people who didn't enjoy it the first time.

Re: The Absolute State Of It - It's The UK Politics Thread!

Re: Starfield has a release date

I’ve only played a few hours of Shattered Space, but I have thoughts. First and probably most crucially, it’s not going to sway anyone who isn’t a fan of Starfield in the first place. As someone who is a fan, the experience arriving on the Va’ruun homeworld is frustrating at best, mind-numbingly ted...

Re: Dragon Age 4: The Veilguard - out October 31st

I'm even more glad Veilguard is basically dropping the open world thing in favour of smaller, more impactful areas and story beats Absolutely this. Inquisition is a great 30 hour Bioware game draped over 100 hours of busywork. In some ways I prefer DA2 to Inquisition, as despite its many flaws it's...

Cheers, first ever victory in god knows how many years! :lol: And purely by virtue of Snowy missing a bunch of days at the start of the month.

Oh wow, hadn’t realised the full series was already on iPlayer- I’d been watching it weekly like a peasant on TV! :lol:

Re: VR!

Interesting, cheers. I’ve gone for the 3 rather than the 3S, so hopefully my glasses should be fine. And the Wi-Fi around my house is pretty solid (it’s a small house with thin internal walls) so I’m not anticipating any issues around that, though I’ll be using it right next to my PC if I do need to...

Re: VR!

I've treated myself to a Meta Quest 3 for my birthday, which was luckily timed with the price drop. Hasn't arrived yet, but any tips for someone who's only lightly dabbled with VR in the past? A couple of specific things I'm curious about: - Is it worth getting prescription lenses? I've read varying...

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

Ludwig I normally avoid detective dramas like the plague, but I'll watch anything that stars David Mitchell and the setup for the show is quite fun: he plays a puzzle-maker who's completely withdrawn from the world, but ends up having to pretend to be his identical twin brother who is a detective a...
