As long as the insects aren’t radroaches we will be okay

We probably won’t solve climate change. We might be able to make huge air conditioned complexes with just a single basic bed for everybody with insect farms underground for us to eat?

Nah not really

Hahaha, that got a good chuckle out of me

Hades really is a banger. I cannot wait for Hades 2, my goodness.

Another perfect game for me is Outer Wilds. It’s hard to really get across the emotional impact it has on you.

Unfortunately due to the nature of the game, you can only really ever play it once. You are able to complete the game immediately, but the whole point is you discover clues as you explore that eventually build up to a point where it all clicks together, and suddenly you know what you must do.

Go in completely blind. Play on your own with your headphones on and get truly immersed. Try not to look up any guides. If you can get there on your own it’s truly satisfying.

When people say videogames are stupid I think of this game and feel sorry for what these people miss out on!

Edit: Oh mechabellum too - great shout. It’s criminal how small the player base is for such an addictive and fun game.

Exactly what I came here to say! The theme song is set as my ringtone and I get chills every time I get a call haha

If you like TTRPG have you tried Warhammer? Where I live there are Warhammer stores in most large towns which regularly host games and events with other people. It can get very expensive I must admit but you can buy 2nd hand miniatures from eBay for much cheaper.

I’m sure you’ve played Hades if you’re into roguelites but that is such an awesome game.

A lesser known and interesting recommendation is Against the Storm, which is a top down strategy game with roguelite mechanics

My experience as someone who owns a HP Omen gaming laptop:

• Not as portable and convenient as you may think. It weighs about 5 pounds, like a bag of potatoes. It uses a lot of power and needs to be plugged in if you want to play for longer than 45 minutes. The charger consists of a heavy cable a power block. I can however move it from the Study to the Living room if I wish to.

• It boots up extremely quickly. I can go from power off to playing a game in about 5 minutes. I can exit a game and leave the power turned on, and then reopen the game and start playing within a minute.

• It has a 2080 super graphics card which means I can play any game I want. I have never had any performance issues even playing games like Elden Ring on max settings.

• It was expensive. Seriously look into refurbished options if possible. I got mine refurbished, works like brand new and have had no problems over the past 4 or so years. I saved about £3k doing this if I remember correctly.
