Re: Star Wars: Outlaws
Pfft. At least Disney keep a tight control over their franchise. Do you think Tom Clancy would approve of that Punk Rock Mosh Pit nonsense? Ubisoft can't be trusted. Well I am never going to argue against that case, it's a slam-dunk. But regardless, resident Star Wars fan, hush now and support my c...

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series
Haha well that's somewhat different to the potted review a mate of mine sent via WhatsApp: I started watching the latest series by the people who made GoT. It’s called 3 body problem . The first episode was intriguing. The second was confusing. I have just turned off half way through 3rd episode bec...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan
I think the closest I've come to that level of assembly disaster was at the start of the pandemic where I decided to reorganise the second bedroom as proper office / entertainment room. It's a tiny room, but there wasn't room to do DIY anywhere else upstairs so I ended up putting together two 6ft b...

3/6. but these ears have taken a pounding with far too many too loud gigs etc, so not a great surprise.

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series
Shogun A remake of the 80's show based on a book. This one seemed to have arrived with little fanfare which is odd as it's very good. Set in 1600's Japan, an English sailor is shipwrecked and taken prisoner. There's a civil war a brewing and he's getting dragged in. Two episodes in so far, it's a s...

Re: The Absolute State Of It - It's The UK Politics Thread!
I live in North Hampshire, where you could stick a blue rosette on a piece of shit with a KKK hood on it and it would be elected over any other party sadly. I have to put up with this Serco funded Edwin, whose only brief moment in the spotlight was being made a minister by Liz Truss: https://www.the...

Re: Currently Reading
Yeah, I read a Jay Kristoff series last year, Nevernight Chronicles I think, and enjoyed it a lot, so will check that out when I finished this current series :) Yes he is a really good author, I also loved the Nevernight Chronicles. With the Vampire series he has really raised the bar though, such ...

Re: Currently Reading
I found the Blood Song trilogy to be the same, I enjoyed the first book massively but the change in perspective and the bringing in of swathes of largely forgettable characters killed it. I stopped reading after book 2. I have enjoyed a few recently: - We are the Dead by Mike Shackle - a very dark a...

Re: General Gaming News
The problems are twofold I think. Firstly you now have a space in which decisions about gaming - what will be made, who will be laid off etc are being made by people with zero understanding of games and gamers. The second is simpler, the older I get and the more I see, I just feel that the utter, en...

Re: Skull & Bones PC
That's fair DJ, I remember being worried about the change of scenery but was excited enough for the story that I took the plunge - and enjoyed it mightily. It doesn't have the location though I agree, visiting towns and cities (in Italy mostly) that I have explored as Ezio is always so funny, you lo...

Re: Skull & Bones PC
I haven't replayed it in years but I remember always enjoying getting back to the sailing. I don't remember the combat that fondly but I did like the recreation of the ship, the ocean etc. I did read that in co-op you can heal your buddies (or at least the ships they are represented by) by shooting ...
