I think I’ve only replayed a handful of games - I used to be much worse at getting half way through a game then buying the next new release. It meant I had a fantastic library of games, but had only completed maybe 3 of them in total. I try to just focus on one games at a time now and with life being the way it is, never have cause to go back to a game unless it’s online based.

Last three books mentioned (bar the Uthred book which I've happily read) have now been noted for future buying.

How does the system in the US compare to the UK system? We pay National Insurance which covers state benefits (maternity pay, pension etc) and income tax which covers our National Healthcare Service, Education, Welfare etc. It's based on your current earnings, so increases the higher your income bracket - although everyone is guaranteed to have 12,500 as personal allowance (which isn't taxed) with the remainder looking like: Band Taxable income Tax rate Personal Allowance Up to £12,500 0% Basic rate £12,501 to £50,000 20% Higher rate £50,001 to £150,000 40% Additional rate over £150,000 45% Then for National Insurance, if you earn more than £183 a week, you pay 12% of your earnings, up to £962 per week.

My wife is thrilled. Thank you Wade. Could we please have CyberPunk for the PS4 please.

I just had a quick check and I’m roughly half way through the main story if Fallen Order. I’m still really enjoying it, though occasionally there are some performance issues and slightly annoying parts. I’m also still pretty poor at the gameplay - although not a massive fan, Dark Souls seems to give you a lot of practice against the enemies in it, which makes deaths feel more your fault. Fallen Order doesn’t have as high an enemy count and so I sometimes end up just blunt forcing my way through with force powers, holding triangle and running away. it has helped me enjoy games though where the point is to be lost, unsure but explore - even with a marker on it’s not like many games where it’s either a very obvious marker or the game literally has something that guides you. it’s also nice just seeing out the last few releases of this generation with my limited free time before we buy a PS5 and a new TV next summer.

Hopefully some magic happens and we my country can move past BoJo.

Even if they do, it’ll end up being like the improved 3DS - better but not essential as they can’t exactly alienate 68 million current switch owners.

The same feeling you’d get dangling your legs over the edge of a skyscraper.

I know I should be thinking about this as I have one child, I don’t think we’re going to have a second and contraception is rubbish. The thought of a vasectomy though makes me feel funny.

Resident Evil 3 Spiderman Final Fantasy 7 Remake Super Mario Odyssey Links Awakening Luigis Mansion 3 and then probably a few indies I haven’t played like Dead Cells, Hades, Undertale etc essentially seeing out the rest of the PS4 releases I want and starting a Switch collection.

As someone who isn’t directly impacted by the election but I’m interested in it, can we stop talking about getting stoned so I can read all the reposted tweets and opinions without having to scroll through all load of unrelated posts (except for the discussion of legalisation). Cheers.

Really enjoyed getting a bit lost in Zeffo in Fallen Order today and in general, the game as a whole. I like the traversal and the use of force powers in puzzles and combat and the way that levels will slowly but surely unravel. I did find I was running around trying to work out how to progress - when I just needed to be signposted a bit more, though I managed to work it out.

I think I'm going to starting relentlessly saving so next summer we can buy a new 4K TV and get PS5 to go along with it. As a side bar, I've always been someone that likes the idea of a Souls game, but I've never really played them (I've got to the Gaping Dragon, died a few times and not really touched the game since) - but that Demon's Souls remake looks pretty epic. I love the monster design (leaning more to dark fantasy than horror) and the lack of HUD looks great. It might tempt me to give the series another try (although with getting a Switch in a few weeks, I might get the Remastered Dark Souls and see if playing portably will help).

I really like Sleepy Hollow - campy but creepy. Also I remember watching it a year after release at 10 and it being pretty awesome even then.

To ask anyone else - playing on a PS4 (original) and when driving the game stutters and screen tears and just looking a fair few unstable textures. Hopefully there's a patch or surely this is refund worthy.

Always sad news to hear of someone dying, however at 90, being one of the most famous actors ever and dying in your sleep in the Bahamas is up there with the best ways to bow out.

Sad to read that Little Hope (the follow on from Man of Medan) is wank - really banking on Supermassive making something on par with Until Dawn, but it's starting to feel that it was a one-off from them.

This thread is a timely reminder to never give anyone you phone number unless you're seeing them in person - frequently.

I'm a teacher so I'll still be going to work, at least now there won't be any traffic on the way home!

After several weeks of the UK government saying that we will not enter a second lockdown and that our strategy of using a tiered, locally targeted lockdown system was working...there’s been a reporter leak that the UK will enter a second lockdown on Wednesday to last until December the 1st. Honestly, after this many u-turns by the conservative government you’d think Johnson, Gove and Hancock would have whiplash.

Apart from quite hardcore Nintendo fans, would the fourth game in a series really be the sort of thing to launch a new console with? (Speaking very hypothetically here). I do agree it sounds as though it will have that cross over, but I wonder if we’re going to be looking at a reboot rather than a follow up.

Wife has decided this will be her autumn game so currently downloading. Looks like all my gaming is going to be before 8am until we get a Switch.

I think I’m going to really push to complete MP after I’ve finished Fallen Order. I’m still across the room from the ice beam so it’s nice and easy to use a guide to get back in track.

That’s good to hear. I’ve not been able to play it any more but I’m actively thinking about playing it lying in bed at the moment. The last time I had that feeling was Last of Us 2.
