    Soccer 2022–2023 (EPL, La Liga, etc)

    yeah, bit crazy. think there's still some hospitality seats available at 215 pounds a ticket which I think is my worse case option. If it was anfield I'd be more inclined to splurge. Hopefully there will be a good liverpool pub in london I can watch the game at with atmosphere.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    yeah, I'm not really seeing that. Certainly not to the degree that everyone is splooging over. I don't even see it as open world. It have very specific areas that are linked together. Nothing like Skyrim or any other great open world game. Sell all junk is just one of many small beefs. adding...

    Anyone know what the chances of getting tickets to the liverpool wolves game are? Ones that aren't horrendously expensive? I'll be in london that weekend and debating whether it's worth trying to get up there for the game

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    it seems the chest of mundane objects bugs out when you enter act 3, so be sure to empty it beforehand. Quite enjoying the game so far but really don't get all the hype. It's very good but on par with the pathfinder games imo. In a lot of ways I prefer them. The UI for this constantly feels...

    it was an epic game. great last ditch defending and awesome goalie heroics from both sides.

    I blame the Truman Show for the rise of reality tv.

    Cities Skylines II

    I'd actually like a city simulator that did a better time of simulating build times and issues. Anyone who has seen a road/highway/freeway upgrade happening in real life, knows it's not a matter of demolishing what's there and laying down something new that pops up instantly. It probably falls...

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare II 2022

    Really like the new map. Season in general is pretty good. The change to the DMZ missions is probably an improvement but still not quite perfect, and the interface to them seems like step backwards

    Project Hail Mary

    Hope they can raise it up a notch, since I agree that it pales in comparison to The Martian.

    Silo

    That's not really true. You got a pretty clear sense of the situation after the first book, the shortest by far.

    Battlefield 2042

    new map is a tad on the small side. Breakthrough is too quick

    The Lazarus Project

    really good show. takes the groundhog day premise to some interesting and sometimes dark places.

    The Netflix Thread

    got the notice last night also. We share our account with family members but mostly use Plex so not a major factor for us. How do they take into account travelling or multiple location? ie, we used to watch netflix at work and at home, which would be two different locations but still just us?

    Europa Universalis IV

    I finally did a First Come, First Serve achievement run. Holy horde and Siberian Frontiers were insanely overpowered for it. Had to take negative traditions to fit them in which basically meant not taking more than 8 ideas total. Was pretty much easy mode being able to declare whenever I...

    Battlefield 2042

    sadly, it looks like there's only 2 half full servers in my region, playing only conquest, so doubt I'll be getting back into this

    The Diplomat - Netflix

    Quite enjoyed this but the end is trash and kinda taints the whole show really.

    Land of the Vikings ("It's 'Banished', dude")

    Looks like this is on my wishlist, and it's the sort of game I'd like, but is it significant better or different from Banished? Or even better, Banished with mods?

    Starsector (formerly Starfarer)

    Same. I don't think I have more than an hour in it yet. I do with it was on steam though since it would be closer to front of mind for me, though still no guarantee of being played.

    "Wool" series by Hugh Howey...

    Really need to reread this. After starting the TV show, I realised so many of the details have faded, though I can still remember the big stuff

    Age of Wonders 4

    I love 4x games but I'm really turned off by the ones that try to meld tactical combat with their strategic components. despite this, they always attract my interest, especially since there hasn't been a great 4x game for a while. I'll probably wait on this one until it's on sale, unless it...

    Europa Universalis IV

    finally got a chance to dive into the new DLC anyone know a good guide / youtube about the changes? the patchnotes are always so dry I find it hard to work out what they actually mean in real terms. The dev diaries are a bit too long and drawn out. Just need a simply summary of the changes and...

    Europa Universalis IV

    this has probably been linked before. I seriously have no idea how this is possible, or how people even work out how to do it. I play the game at such a lower level even though I have 1000s of hours in it.

    so this happened recently: wired wrote an article on Sanderson https://www.wired.com/story/brandon-sanderson-is-your-god/ I think its worth giving people time to read it first before commenting further.

    Holy shit you weren't kidding. Had to pass via the outskirts to get some shopping done and it has to be the most feral place I have ever seen. Including shit on TV and movies. Time really got away from us to do any of your interesting things. Ended up just doing the tourist crap which were...

    Burma Love looks awesome. Sadly my wife can't eat Garlic or Onion ( and whole bunch of other things) due to allergies, so limits food options a lot. She was amazed to discover a place here that made quesadila's without the ingredients that made her sick!

    Seems like San Diego will be spent adjusting to jet leg. Really struggling to get used to it. We're staying in the gaslamp area. definitely lots of bars and places but those days are behind me sadly. Are prices here indicative of everywhere? Seems quite pricey, but that could just be the...

    cheers! Just the Wife and I, no kids. No car either, so that limits a lot of things. Beaches / Zoo probably skip since we have good ones here. Mostly aiming for the unique things that aren't available or common anywhere. Old Town sounds good, as does Coronado Island, so I'll investigate those...
