  • I tried to get into Mortal Shell twice now and both times I've ran away screaming. I hear great things about it, but I find the character feel so cumbersome from the outset that I just give up after an hour or two.

  • Did you not read the first part of my relatively short post where I indicated that there's probably a problem.....

  • I've seen Elden Ring on PC for as low as £30 over the last few weeks if that takes your fancy. I'm also fairly sure it's on sale on PSN and Xbox ATM (at least in the UK).

    Wo-Long maybe? It's from the folks that made Nioh and is on Gamepass.

  • More than you'd think to be fair. Lots of older people still rely on it, and homeless people might not necessarily have a bank account or a working debit card to use at a checkout.

  • Oxenfree messed me up when I played it a few years ago. It's got this super eerie vibe to it that really ratchets up the tension and sense of dread.

    A game I played recently might do the job too, it's called Signalis. It plays a bit like a 2D Resident Evil game, but with a slightly more interesting story.

  • I push back on Lee Anderson. He's got to be a leftie spy working his way through Tory HQ to bring the party down from the inside. Because I don't believe, I can't believe that the good people of Ashfield would vote for him without also being in on the plot...

  • I've got to assume there's some dodgy prints going around? I got a PAL version of the game on disc (standard edition) and it installed without issue, and so far I've not noticed any significant issues with that installation.

  • My children woke up and chose violence today, which means by 9:00am I'm officially over the weekend and can't wait for tomorrow to arrive. Hello School.

  • If you make it so that education is paid for by parents and parents alone you're going to find there's a lot less people willing to run the already incredibly difficult gauntlet of parenthood, not to mention you'll end up in a place where only the wealthy can risk becoming parents, which is a nightmare in itself.

  • Spent the day at a wedding yesterday, with two young children. So today is mainly going to revolve around doing as little as possible.

  • This isn't just an unpopular opinion as much as it's a deeply unpleasant one. We all pay taxes for things we likely don't need, it's called living in a society.

    Education kids is literally the most important thing we can do to maintain said society. Those 'additional strains' go on to become Doctors, Police Officers, Firefighters, Infrastructure engineers and (um) people that work in municipal services to help you, the tax payer. Strip away that education and wham! Guess who's just signed up to losing access to all of those things in 30 years (and let me tell ya, in 30 years time... you're gonna want that support Bob).

  • Could be wrong here but based on the URL of the website it's an industry type site. They're probably writing for people that make games, or are involved in their publishing more than they're writing for the average person playing them.

  • Maybe they took the contract out before being forced into welfare? Last I checked companies aren't overly happy if you ask to end your contract early.

  • I don't think I've encountered one Musk based post in the three months I've been on here. Maybe it's the communities you're subscribed to?

  • Spider-Man and this on the same day. It's too much.

  • Is a phone contract a luxury? Owning a smartphone allows you to both 1) look for a job, and 2) use the Universal Credit portal.

    Both of those things are absolutely essential if you want to claim UC because well, they made it mandatory to claim online, so...yah.

    Tory gonna Tory I guess. I won't lie, I do enjoy watching them shoot themselves in the foot as often as they do.

  • Having something of a bumper week (yay for annual leave).

    I've played (and finished) Supbar Pool and Strange Horticulture

    Subpar Pool is a golf/pool mashup that is super fun, and SH scratches an itch that I didn't realise i needed to scratch.

  • They're a relatively small company right, I imagine they have to be incredibly careful about how much they commit to making and thus, don't really have the ability to make large numbers of these things in one go.

  • The 'ol reverse 'Roy' move. Love to see it....
