@Thrillho Are you watching the cricket this morning? Root getting over 200 was great, it's a shame Buttler didn't get a higher total, though.
"Preoccupied with a single leaf, you won’t see the tree. Preoccupied with a single tree, you’ll miss the entire forest. Don't be preoccupied with a single spot. See everything in its entirety...effortlessly. That is what it means...to truly "see." "
@TheBrandedSwordsman yeah that was ages ago, their all plat’d now. The only Miyazaki From Soft game I’m yet to plat is Sekiro but that should be done in March or April.
@TheBrandedSwordsman Caught the final session again and a little bit before so missed out on Stokes’ innings. Great performance by Root though. Great ball for Buttler and Archer shouldn’t be batting above 10!
Some movement for their seamers towards the end so England will need some of that for when they’re in to bat!
@Thrillho Yeah did you see that impressive 4 that Leach hit? I thought that was great. We are way ahead now though, so I think it's looking good. 500 and something for 8 eh?

@colonelkilgore All plat'd? Nice, A Knight's Honour in Dark Souls Remastered must have been tough, though? With all your platinums you seem like an impressive gamer, do you reckon you would ever have a go at going pro? I'm being serious here, not taking the p*ss.

@TheBrandedSwordsman no way, there are guys on here and my friends list with 10x the amount that I have. Also, I don’t really think you have to be particularly ‘good’ to plat everything you play just... persistent.
And with the Souls games in particular you can just over-level your character if you ‘need’ to.
@colonelkilgore Yeah but with the Souls games that doesn't necessarily working on NG+2 or +3? The PvE difficulty ramps up each time, as I'm sure you already know.
But it's good to know about being persistent, I might have a go at plating either DS3 or DeSt, one day, maybe...

@TheBrandedSwordsman seriously just ‘aim’ to achieve it and think about what it will actually take and you’ll be fine. Btw check your friend requests... just saying 😉
@TheBrandedSwordsman also, I didn’t find the ng+’s ‘that’ much more difficult that ng if I’m honest, though it probably helped that I played each dlc on ng first before starting the respective ng+’s. Also, I’ve never been past ng+3 and it’s when you start getting into ng+6 that things start to get particularly difficult from what I gather.
@Jimmer-jammer I remember the angels but can’t remember what my strategy was... my vague recollection is that you don’t deal with them at all (basically take cover when they ‘fire’ off projectiles and progress when they’re not) I could be remembering that wrong though.
As well as being a brilliantly designed area with awesome enemies and bosses, it (together with The Ashes of Ariandel) is also a great ‘end’ to the Dark Souls narrative (although you might have to watch a YouTube video or three to understand quite what that ending actually is... I know I did).
@Thrillho Yeah did you see that impressive 4 that Leach hit? I thought that was great. We are way ahead now though, so I think it's looking good. 500 and something for 8 eh?
Yeah, nice shot that one. Not as nice as Root's sweep 6 to bring up 200 though
Just settling in for the rugby now. Today just lacked an F1 race on terrestrial TV this afternoon for a perfect day of sport!
@Jimmer-jammer I developed a complex method for dealing with those angels in the swamp in The Ringed City. I'm going to share it with you here, but I'm going to put it in spoiler tags because it's such a high-level, pro strategy that amateur players might not be able to handle it.
I ran like a f***ing coward
Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.
@Jimmer-jammer well if you do go back keep us updated with how you get on. Also, I think you need to take cover behind scenery rather than behind a shield (if that’s what you meant be ‘turtling’).
@BearsEatBeets Yeah he mentioned that in one of his podcasts a couple of weeks ago. Interestingly, the developer has been bought by the Embracer Group, the same group that purchased Gearbox. If true, at least it means they won't be locked on one platform like the originals.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
@RogerRoger I didn't know that they had already handled other ports. It's not a good sign if some of them aren't well done. Hopefully all the extra talent they are employing and the money being pumped into it will help ensure a better outcome. @JohnnyShoulder yeah, I couldn't imagine Lucasfilm wanting to restrict any future games to one platform.
