There are potential pitfalls with procedural generation, and Starfield definitely did it poorly, but as a fan of TES since Daggerfall I’m happy to get behind this. I’m sure it’s possible to make proc-gen work well and I’m hopeful they’ll manage it. Only time will tell I guess.

It just hit 100% 🥳

I can’t say it’s something I noticed, but I’m sure there will be options to adjust that. It also seems like the kind of game that will attract modders, just like all TES games.

Streaming on either Xbox Cloud Gaming (beta) or GeForce Now.

I mean that my latest save from my Xbox is never available via the cloud on other services.

I too stream IPTV, which is what the VPNs primary use is. I’m glad Mullvad has worked well for, it’s the one in thinking of sticking with. Fortunately, I’m able to try it for a month for the same price I’d normally pay, unlike their competitors. The only thing that’s holding Mullvad back are their comparatively poor apps.

It does. I found a workaround. but it required changing settings. Librewolf is a little too secure for some websites to work correctly it seems.

Thanks.

No Starfield for launch though.

Thanks for the feedback. My thinking was if by going with Palit or Zotac I can get stretch my budget to include a 4080 (if going AM5) or 4090 if going (Z790 or B660 + 13600K) etc, then it would be worth it, providing these basic cards would prove reliable. I just don’t know their reputation as I’m unfamiliar with the brands, since this will be my first gaming PC.

Which CPU did you go for?

That’s a great idea!

Oh, has it been removed for everyone?

That’s strange, it’s not showing as an upcoming free game in the UK. Disappointing 😞

AWOL On The Appalachian Trail by David Miller, narrated by Christopher Lane.

The man is physiologically incapable of honesty.

I spoke with an employee at my local recycling centre earlier in the year, when dropping off a car load of waste. I asked him how they recycle the plastic and his response was “Don’t worry lad, we burn it all to recycle it into nice clean energy”.

As an animal lover, I fucking loathe fireworks. Fortunately, we’ve managed to condition 3 of our pets to largely ignore them, and the 4th is deaf. I can’t help worrying about the wildlife they scare to death though.

Yes.
