Love that 😍

@JohnnyShoulder What's the procedure if you're not there to pick it up? They don't just leave it there, do they?

@velio84 @colonelkilgore Never in doubt!

@NedStarksGhost yup, as sure a thing as you’ll get these days.

@Voltan @R1spam They will either leave it in my porch or with a neighbour. I only live 10 mins away from work, so can dash back if needed and the timing works out OK.

@JohnnyShoulder That's not too bad, I guess. Hope you don't get porch pirates in your neighbourhood

So I WAS going to start as wretch, but it looks like they’re not actually the best for min-maxing because other classes actually have some stats lower, and all have the same total if you account for level.

Wretch would mean that I don’t start with cool armor I keep the whole game and have to find stuff…. Still, now I’m torn.

Side note, related, Arcane says it’s used for some spells, but none from the network test needed it. Do we know if it’s used for more than luck/

@JohnnyShoulder happy days and nice for commuting! My order has now shipped too so outside chance of tomorrow but more likely Saturday.

@Voltan @R1spam Yeah Simply Games has emailed me to say it has been despatched. And delivery has been changed to my work address!

And no porch pirate's that I'm aware of. The neighbourhood is pretty sound. But still a bit wary of almost 200 quids worth of stuff being left on my porch.

Apparently my copy will be with me tomorrow sometime between 11:00am and 3:00pm. With the way the two deliveries have panned out, I’m kinda glad I opted to play Horizon Forbidden West first now… as if I’d gone with Elden Ring by booking tomorrow off, I’d be fuming if I didn’t get a chance to play it until 3pm.

Mine just got delivered

@kyleforrester87 jealous bud, enjoy!!

@R1spam Thanks man! Hopefully get a few hours in this evening before bed.

@kyleforrester87 Do report your deaths-per-hour number

@EclipseZero someone ordered it for me actually, from The Game Collection - I never heard of them but would use them again based on this.

@kyleforrester87 @EclipseZero Yeah TGC are solid, have used them a few times so I can recommend them.

I managed to get a couple of hours in, and once I stopped trying to throw Pokeballs at everything.. damn it’s enthralling. There are gunna be some good weekends for people!

Elden Ring will be coming tomorrow. Decent price actually and hopefully it compliments Horizon playing both at the same time.

@nessisonett I couldn’t do that.. I really struggle playing 2 third person games at once, I can’t jump between the control schemes. I am already struggling trying to play some Pokémon to wind down before bed lol.
