@JohnnyShoulder Thanks for the sage info, man, I really appreciate you pulling that info from the steam community pages for me, hopefully I can get some Prosthetic Tool upgrades that will make for an 'op' build in some way, shape or form. Hope you had a good Xmas!
Currently watching the Boxing Day Cricket Test Match between Pakistan and South Africa and listening to music. Anyone else up to much today or just recovering from yesterday's festivities?
@BlAcK_Sw0rDsMaN No worries dude, hope it comes in useful and good luck in your journey in 14th-century Japan!
There is wall to wall football on Prime today, so will be dipping in and out of that before settling down to watch the Liverpool game later this evening.
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.
@HallowMoonshadow I’ve come down with whatever bug’s going round too. Horrible chest infection, barely even ate the turkey that I spent hours making yesterday. Went to bed at about 8PM with a fever and chills. Possibly the worst Christmas yet 😂
@HallowMoonshadow Feels like an awful lot of people I know are suffering from similar. Possibly it’s not being spoken about as much as it should due to people really not wanting a Covid scenario again. Truly miserable though (hence randomly waking up at 3am), I just hope others here have had a better time these holidays!
@nessisonett@HallowMoonshadow My mum has had a chest infection too, which is not a good combination with her asthma. She seems to be over the worst of it thankfully, with the antibiotics + steroids doing the job.

I also like hitting people with swords, and really hope some fresh new games which include some kind of sword-hitting gameplay release this new year 🤞🤞
@Jimmer-jammer@Th3solution Hey guys! I'm back now, how were your Christmases? I played a bit more of Sekiro in the interim, beat another mini boss and am now ready to face to the first main boss of the game, I don't know how far I will be able to get/if I will be able to get the platinum but it feels like a fitting epilogue for my FromSoft journey after beating all the mainline Souls/Soulslike games directed by Miyazaki. Sol, be sure to let me know how you get on with DS3 when you get around to it. 😉
What are you playing right now guys? How are your games going?
@Th3solution Also, Sol, are you at all familiar with Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin? I know you're an FF fan and this entry into the franchise is allegedly Souls-influenced, so naturally it's one I'm interested in playing. Do you think it's a game you might be interested in?
@Jimmer-jammer Don't eat that Canadian Chicken! 😉
Glad to hear you're enjoying Metaphor: ReFantazio. I was asking Sol, with regard to the FF game, about another game in the series, Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. Are you familiar with that one as well? I think it may be quite good, due to it's apparent Souls-influence.
Break was fine, thanks, no real Christmas traditions, aside from the usual family interactions and a traditional, non-traditional Christmas meal (Jerk Chicken this year - THAT, you CAN eat). 😉
Hopefully we will all have a Happy New Year in 2025. I don't know what the political situation is like in Canada, but over here we have moved away from the Conservatives into a new Labour era, anyway, I'm not really too interested in politics, but the governments of our respective countries will irrespectively have an influence on the type of year we citizens are going to have, in terms of the things their decisions influence in our day to day lives.
I'm currently listening to Aphex Twin, and my New Year's Resolution is to focus more on Jazz and Hip Hop Music and also continuing focusing on reading, playing guitar and playing video games as my main hobbies and interests from now on and maybe try and watch more films and anime as well - so, hopefully, that means a lot more discussion on here.
I'm still in the process of negotiating my hours for a new voluntary role, and playing Sekiro (just defeated the Great Serpent, as I said elsewhere (and the first Samurai mini-boss and the Chained Ogre before that.) so that's where I'm at.
@BlAcK_Sw0rDsMaN Yes, I have heard of it. I think it was received with middling reviews but I’m not opposed to trying it some day. I think the FF execution of it appears a little off. There was really weird dialogue from what I heard. “Chaos!” 😅
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@BlAcK_Sw0rDsMaN Hello sir! (and an even more belated hello to @JohnnyShoulder who I never responded to back in October.. sorry)
I tend to keep up with match reports and highlights of the cricket where I can but I've tickets to Edgbaston for later this year for day 2 against India which I'm hoping should be a good series! Do you have any plans to seen any matches live?
As for games, I finally bought myself round to play Outer Wilds over the Christmas break and have been playing FF7: Rebirth since.
I hope everyone is doing well though; there seem to be plenty of coming and goings on this place but I find it too easy to not keep up with this place with work and trying to entertain and keep my two year old alive these days. Always a couple of hours time in the evening for some PS5 action though
