@ThereThere The Dead Daisies are kind of a supergroup, currently fronted by Glenn Hughes (of Deep Purple fame, among others) - their 2021 album "Holy Ground" is very good.

Nothing worse than getting woken up by bloody flutes and drums. It’s too warm to shut the windows as well so I just had to put up with it. God the couple of years’ worth of reprieve thanks to Covid was worth it. At least the ones on my street haven’t kitted out their house in union jacks.

@Kidfried I was still feeling it in my legs last night but I'm mostly fine today
A little sunburnt maybe (and there wasn't even much sun) but it was all worth it

I'm a very tall person pushing 40 so back problems and a bad knee or 2 kinda come with the territory - I'm actually doing rather well all things considered

@ThereThere Just your totally normal celebration of a 400 year old massacre and wider ethnic cleansing!

@Thrillho Got to be one of the most bizarre things I’ve seen in a while. Just… why?

@ThereThere Have you tried that Radiohead experience thingy on PlayStation?

How does everyone rate this months ps+ games? Trying to decide if I should redo my sub now or not. Could always just do the 1 month if it's a particularly strong month.

@Kidfried
Welcome back!

Hiya!
I got Youtubers Life 2 PS4 from play-asia this afternoon. 😃
Untitled

The game was arrived 2 weeks earlier from my prediction. 😱
I was excited but also I have to pay again some money after some games purchase last two weeks ago. 😣
Also, now I have two version of Youtubers Life 2, on PS4 and Switch version. 😁
Untitled

The base game version 1.03 on PS4 version was 1.7 GB and became 4.66 GB after update version 1.05. It was smaller than the number displayed on back cover (6 GB).
From gameplay technical and frame rate, the PS4 version was way smoother than Switch version and have more stable 60 fps. 😄
Well... My Switch version of Youtubers Life 2 will be retired after this, it will be back up games. 😏
Btw, this is my looking in Youtubers Life 2 PS4.

I named with my real name David and I named my YouTube channel in the game with DE-STRAD, based on DDR SuperNOVA alias name.

@Kidfried. I’m impressed that you remember my endorsement of that book. 😄 I really need to re-read that someday.
For my most recent ‘historical war fix’ I watched a great WWI documentary while you were away a couple weeks ago and my mini-review discussion is here on the Movie Thread if you’re interested in those thoughts. I seem to recall you really liked the game Valiant Hearts and had some fascination in The Great War so that discussion might interest you.

@ThereThere You say that as though there is a clear and sober alternative. There absolutely isn't.

Both main parties are awful. The electorate haven't taken leave of anything, they're fully aware they're both crap.

I imagine the most popular party at the next election will be the "I'm not even going to bother voting because they're both crap" party.

@ThereThere it's truly grim, have you ever seen any of the Charlie Brooker Black mirror series? The Waldo episode feels disturbingly on the nose in our political landscape.

Anyone try out the phone version of into the breach yet? I've been playing today and though I'm pretty bad at it, I feel disturbed by how quickly time dissappears when playing it!!

@ThereThere Ultimately though only two people were going to be PM in 2019, Boris or Corbyn. Corbyn would have been far worse in my opinion and that of the electorate.(not saying Boris was good, just the lesser of the two evils). I'm worried going forward as I think there is a massive disconnect between parliament and the electorate.

Being an MP has become a career instead of actually standing for an idea or values. The only way this country will move forward politically is if the Tories and Labour are destroyed. They're zombie parties sustained by instilled generational voting or "I vote for A because I hate B" mindsets.

@kyleforrester87 Welp, you’re not the only one. For some reason I had never thought of that either. The fact it’s used in Final Fantasy games as a way to revive a dead or “downed” character has always made me think the word down referred to its purpose rather than the fact it’s literally “down” as in feathers.

Honestly, it’s probably supposed to be a clever play on words. Which, if so, always amazes me that translating something over from Japanese can do a double entendre like that. How is it that the translators can be so clever when native English writers don’t even think of these things? 😅

I see it a lot in the Persona localizations too, not to mention Yakuza. There’s constantly play on words that is very English specific.

Yo! 😃
I still enjoy playing Youtubers Life 2 on PS4.
I have entered Autumn season year 1 and I saw a thick mist and Halloween stuffs around NewTube city.
I still have some Main quest that I still need more time to finish as there are some requirements to continue the main quest by befriending other peoples to trigger specific events and get the items to continue the storyline.

Btw, I met with these famous four Youtubers during gameplay (Farhan, Rubius, Vegetta, Willyrex) and they have side quests to be finished. I got a big poster of them + 4 reaction cards from them as the rewards.
Neat!

@kyleforrester87 I think PS fans (and only PS fans) said it will end when Andy Murray wins Wimbledon again.
