Re: Warcraft 3 - Reforged Announced

Yeah, see it was the lore surrounding Arthas that I was interested in at the time, not really the gameplay. It was during the latter days of the Wrath of the Lich King era of WoW. I don't know much about the lore but I assume WoW has played fast and loose at times? (and presumably created its own p...

Re: Warcraft 3 - Reforged Announced

Campaign. There was nothing wrong with the actual gameplay, I just remember there being technical issues I wasn't prepared to find a workaround for at the time. I was trying to play it a good ten years after it was released, and I think there may have been severe resolution limits (and I hated how ...

Re: Warcraft 3 - Reforged Announced

They really should have ended the Blizzcon keynote with this rather than a mobile version of Diablo. You could almost hear the disappointment. I'm interested, largely because despite being a fan of the franchise I've never actually played much of Warcraft 3. I tried during my WoW days but it was si...

Re: Shithole or its lovely here

I've had a fucking worldy moving from Sunderland to Edinburgh. I feel better already.

Re: RimWorld [PC] - Due out 17th October

Executing an elderly person for complaining that it's cold... :lol: Don't be giving the Tories ideas... If we had limited stockpiles of goods as the result of a calimituous situation, worsened by the weather, executing the elderly might be a solid idea. Y'know, since this particular non-representat...

Re: RimWorld [PC] - Due out 17th October

Tommy, there is a mod you can download which lets you design your own colonists, which can help alleviate some of the early disasters (if not remove them completely, wouldn't be Rimworld if that were the case :D) To be honest, I've been looking at some of the tips since I posted that and realised t...

Re: Football

Pretty much the same. We have been pretty unlucky with injuries at the back so slightly concerned about the game against Liverpool. During our run people appear to have forgotten that we were written off after the Chelsea and City game with people saying it would take multiple transfer windows to g...

Re: Football

How are you feeling about Arsenal's rebirth under Emery, Dj? Pretty optimistic. I think we should make top four this year and possibly win a cup. It's nice going into a new season not knowing what to expect after 10 years of the same old same old under Wenger. It also means I can actually go back t...

Re: Currently Reading

I just finished reading Artemis by Andy Weir (of 'The Martian' fame). I enjoyed it. I haven't read much for years (bar Economics/Finance journals and textbooks), but it was gripping and accessible enough. A quick check shows the film rights have already been bought which is entirely unsurprising. Al...

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

It's pretty good, although we kind of fizzled out with it somewhere in the second series. Keep meaning to go back to it sometime, but there's always something else coming out we want to watch more. On that note, last night finished the second series of Making a Murderer. Avery is obviously a bit of...

Re: RimWorld [PC] - Due out 17th October

Been playing this on and off and it's fair to say I'm absolutely toss at it. I realise it's half the point, but from starting the game I'm on a timer for one of my colonists going on an eating binge and arresting them, and it's a downward spiral from there. I don't think it's necessarily complicated...

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

Been watching Ozark, not quite at the end of the second season yet but closing in. It's really good, plenty of plot twists and not too precious with characters. Finds a happy medium between traditional American heroes and Game of Thrones ruthlessness. Was thinking of starting The Last Kingdom to plu...

Hello! :)
Long time!

I'm assuming post approval is for new members and not reserved simply for boisterous North-Easterners?

Member of Prey's World. Checked up periodically over the last few years, though didn't actually post.

Today's random check led to here, so felt it would be a good opportunity to start posting occasionally.
