Hey thanks for the response! Glad to hear it :) definitely agree about the puzzles being spoiled by Aloy, really weird how they implemented that without even an option to turn it off. I also thought it was strange how she gladly risks her life with the amount of stuff she’s trying to handle already, but it does make for a more interesting game I think. Overall the side quests are a bit more interesting and fleshed out than in zero dawn. Also the stash is a really welcome addition compared to the first one.

I think we play in a similar way, at least on a first playthrough I play like that. I also play the game without fast travel but that’s not for everyone :) hope you make it to the end! It definitely has me excited for Horizon 3.

I got the Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster last week as well, it’s really well done for a remaster and I’m enjoying a full new playthrough. On the way to Meridian now.

Well said! And now on PS5 it plays so great at a smooth 60 fps, amazing stuff. I frequently start the game just to wander around and fight the machines. At ultra hard it can still be quite challenging even after all these hours.

The remaster seems to be really well done as well according to early reviews, so looking forward to putting even more hours into it :-) hope they made the inventory management better as that is basically my only issue with the original.

I do agree the first has the better vibe and story but I think you’d still enjoy finishing Forbidden West and the Burning Shores DLC. The ending was interesting and if you stopped halfway through you might not even have seen some of the new enemies yet! How far did you get?

Horizon Zero Dawn is my all time favorite game (a remastered version is coming out next week so might be a great time to jump in). Celeste is a 2D platformer and also really great. Been having fun with Zelda ToTK and Astrobot as well.

Damn noob ;-)

It means “I am not a lawyer”, usually at least ;-)

Half-Life 3

You could finally visit the only real Legoland in Billund of course!

You could also see it as you preventing someone else from learning from their own mistakes. Maybe reframing it like that could help with skipping :)

SystemD also contains things like a network manager, dns resolving, ntp time sync and more, which I agree should not be so tightly coupled to the core init system.

It’s in America so yes.

Agreed! He even has the best line of the entire saga.

“Vegeta, what does the scouter say about his power level?? … IT’S OVER 9000!!!”

Strongly disagree, I think it’s very useful to accept your own addictive tendencies so you can stay mindful of the risks, but as with most of these things it’s probably personal. Use what works for you.

Sorry if I misunderstood your comment, it seemed like a metaphor for social media but perhaps I assumed too much. My bad!

You know you don’t have to doomscroll social media right? You can just, you know, not do social media.

No worries, it appears that most of the world uses the word “scooter” differently than we do in the Netherlands :-) with your definition of scooter I agree that my statement was ridiculous haha.

Yeah it’s my bad as apparently most of the world uses the word differently :-) I’m a big fan of electric vehicles, both the noise and pollution are reduced which is great!

That’s why I said compared to their speed. I don’t know any brands or example models, all of them are obnoxiously loud and driven by simple minded fools imho. Cars make relatively little noise, and newborns and trees do not belong in this comparison in my opinion.

Edit: tried to find a picture, seems these are not universally called scooters even though they are where I live. I mean models like this: https://www.scooterforyou.nl/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/34_G7_99_KISBEESPORTLINE-1.jpg

Ugh yes, and ban scooters and motors as well, they make such a ridiculous amount of noise compared to their speed.

I feel this is missing a couple of !important statements :)

Too soon man
