Re: General Film News

Kind of feel a female centric marvel already has a handicap. I thought it looked quite fun from the trailer and I’m generally super harsh on marvel.

Schmigadoon Season 2: Schmicago
God dang wondeful. Loved it! So much fun, plenty of laughs and really well made. I hope they get green-lit for a third season. Magic.

Re: Currently Playing

I found the most fun was to be stealthy but have a big katana for when it goes south and just go nuts on them.

Diablo 4 (free trial)
I have never been so bored at the start of a Diablo game. Generally the opening act is the most fun but this was embarrassingly bad.

Re: I Just Watched (Films)

I think 6/10 is very generous but sober at least. Its not the worst movie I've seen this year but its possibly the one I disliked the most.

Re: Currently Reading

Uh so lets see.... Holly - Stephen King Other than End Of Watch which is probably the worst thing King has ever wrote I quite enjoy the Bill and Holly books. They're just fun little easy reads with some dumb stuff and this is more of that. The politics did annoy me a bit though. I'm pretty much with...

Re: General Gaming News

Seems more of a directors cut. Wonder if it'll head to PC and take heed of what they should have learned from the last one.

How is TLoU PC now anyway, did they fix it?

Re: Steam News & Updates

Theres some nice start up animations. Hades, Vamp Surv and Elden Ring ones are real nice. Quite like the minimalism of the Dead Cells one. This lead me to have a look at the other profile customisation on their little store with optimism but its 90% anime girls that may or may not be getting shagged...

Re: Tech assistance required!

Re: Steam News & Updates

The DF quick review was hugely positive. Amazing screen, cyberpunk battery life increasing by nearly an hour and around a 7% fps bump.

I wonder if the oled+front shell is something you could install on a gen 1 if you buy the parts.
