Another shoutout to summit, coming from an ex-Sync user. It's very nice.

+1 for summit

Excel

Looks interesting - bought the bundle for $2ish and will check it out

That and the Prometheans were just so unsatisfying as enemies.

The teleporting away (and appearing randomly), how you didn't seem to visibly hurt them / bullet sponge, disappearing on death etc all contributed to it feeling like a chore to off them.

5 was a bit better but still nowhere near the fun of 1-3/reach/odst

I found this study which would suggest it's ballpark correct, depending on your weight and what you're carrying

Will do - I jumped ship to Summit and haven't looked back. The only thing that would be nice to have here is an instance browser.

Can you reload old saves, or only the most recent? I think being able to reload an older save is important in the case of glitches (NPC walks through wall and is unreachable etc)

So the article mentions tarrifs by Mexico, and provides a link to them - but they just go to a tweet from the Mexican President that say nothing about tarrifs.

What action are they taking?

There are no eggs. Anywhere.

Introducing the B-52X.

Does the banana for scale have a source for its measurement? I can see 1 banana is 17.8cm.
Presumably that's an average?

I do like that you can keep the stats of gear you're wearing but change the appearance of it to anything you've collected before. Nice to actually be able to look good and have good gear.

One thing I've done is turn off the Minimap. It's made it more interesting - I actually pay attention to the landscape details and the golden path thing is actually useful. Just wish you could keep a compass visible.

I just bought a steam deck, and bought hogwarts legacy when it was on sale a while back on a friend's recommendation.

Decided to give it a try - such a great game! I tend to compare opens world's to Skyrim, and the detail in the quests is so much better. It's not just 'clear this dungeon'. Plus they've really thought about what sucks about those other games and really tried to avoid them. Plays great on the steam deck too, I've got it capped at 45fps and it never skips a beat.

I don't think I've had this much enjoyment from a gaming device ever. I've done the console and game pass on the phone mounted controller, and that was not very consistent. The instant pause/resume button is a game changer with young kids waking up in the night.

Not at all bothered by performance - in fact I've seeing articles about how 'this windows handheld beats the steam deck in tflops' but an constantly thinking - 'yes, but it's a handheld. Is it good at that? Battery life, pick up and go etc are super relevant, not just performance.

Bit of a tangent there, but I am having a great gaming time.

Yep - grated cheese is a good example. The stuff they put in to make it not stick together can contain gluten.

Thanks for suggesting summit - I've tried many but never felt like they clicked. Summit feels nice- it has many of the same features, you can customise how posts look (even the width of cards!)

This is what news.com.au in Australia (Murdoch media) sees as peak journalism.
They'll regularly trawl Reddit and twitter for 'stories' and how the public reaction (read: 1 comment) is.

It's become a bit of a joke in the Australia subreddit to ask to be included in the screenshot.
