Really can't praise No Rest For The Wicked enough. Only Early Access, so the size of it is a bit limited right now, but the Devs have released 2 Hotfixes already and are about to release another this afternoon. Best way I can describe it is kinda like a top-down Elden Ring, but with random loot drops like a more typical ARPG. It has the weapon variations of ER, character building is similar, and the combat is punishing until you really figure out what you are doing, but overall I'm having an absolute blast playing it. Through the Story part and I'm about to start on what currently makes up the end-game, and I'm already desperate to see them expand what's available. Multi-player is the first update on the schedule and that could make things really interesting if they are planning group dungeons and so on. If you remotely enjoy Souls-like games and/or ARPG's then this is a must play, but I will warn you if all you are interested in is a faceroll keyboard-piano ARPG like PoE or Diablo, then this isn't it. It's much more nuanced and you really need to pay attention or you'll die over and over. It's closer to a Souls game than TItanQuest/Grim Dawn/PoE.

They'll do exactly what they did the last time, and hire some consultancy firm who then go and hire a load of semi-retired physiotherapists, dieticians, aromatherapists and so on, who will give you a ten minute Q&A session and conclude your Consultant Oncologist or Psychiatrist has totally fabricated your life-long diagnosis off the back of nothing at all.

This started when they decided to put the cars in Parc Ferme between session. The reason they keep skiting off in light drizzle is because they are all running Dry setups courtesy of this idiotic rule.

Really interested in No Rest For The Wicked https://store.steampowered.com/app/1371980/No_Rest_for_the_Wicked/ Releases into Early Access later today. ARPG, but with "soulslike" combat rather than skill spamming. About 8 hours with this now. It really is a bit different. Combat is fiendishly difficult, far more so than the likes of Elden Ring. I don't think it's broken or over tuned, it just places a premium on not getting hit and working out the timing and combos of even the "trash" mobs. Loot is mostly random, but it doesn't spew out garbage left and right like a typical ARPG, so there is an element of "go with what you find" that seemingly stays true throughout, although there is apparently a shared stash that lets you hoard better drops and pass them on to alts. I'm hooked. Loads of whining online because the equipment has a durability mechanic, so if you die 3 or 4 times you'll usually have to run to the smith to fix it, but I suspect this is a skill issue and a case of "get gud scrub" due to typical ARPG button-mashers being used to playing while watching box-sets.

Due 3x Home 2x Away, but with only St.Mirren and Celtic due at Dens again. So either they are going to screw us out of a home gate, or send Hertz, Killie, or Rangers (yeah sure) for a third time.

2 points dropped. Let them aff the hook. Nowhere near good enough etc etc

Absolutely asking for a mugging. One-way traffic since half-time and nothing to show for it.

How the f**k are we no 1-0 up?

Kinda hoping for a Hibs goal to inject some life into this. Don't GAF about top 6 tbh

This has the feel of one of those games that will be decided by a totally random VAR decision either way, without a single person inside the ground having any idea what the review was actually for.

Grim stuff.

GIRFUY LAD

Binged this in two sittings. Well worth a watch. Doesn't really capture the humour of the games except for 2 or 3 things, but it's still nice to see that they included so many game references and kept it reasonably faithful. I don't think it's on a par with TLOU, but still a solid 4/5

Urgh... Dodgers series again already. How is it possible in a 30 team league there can be not one, but two franchises just as obnoxious as the New York Yankees?

Graham Stuart resigned from Government today for no apparent reason whatsoever.

I don't miss United at all and couldn't care less if there's never another derby as long as I live.

I'm just looking forward to the umpteen Portillo moments. What comes after is bound to be a let-down, so I'm not really thinking about it.

Yay! we're getting rid of the utterly corrupt tory arseholes, in favour of some less corrupt, slightly less tory, tory arseholes, is about the long and short of it. No wonder there's a palpable lack of enthusiasm.

Is a "conconversation" like a conversation, but concomitant?

"f**k all wrong with the drains and sewers" of Dens Road, which has a history of turning into a white water rafting course in heavy rain. Aye, ok then.

I have no issue with this, since the current iteration of Rangers is a completely different club to the one that died in 2012. I am a bit bemused though, at the apparent belief of the current iteration that the views and opinions of The Rangers Sevconians 2012, or whatever it is they are calling themselves now, on the matter of where, precisely, Dundee FC host their home matches carries some sort of extra weight or eminence. Simply put, this isn't "their" fixture and the SPFL needs to tell them to f**k off to the far side of f**k with their "suggestions".

We need to water our pitch more often. Amazing how wound up some folk are getting about this, especially those who are fans of clubs which don't even play in the same division and are therefore entirely unaffected

Ok, so are you still sticking by your assertion that it's an impossibility that there is anyone connected with Dens Park who has a background and qualifications in Civil Engineering, or that the club themselves have had the matter looked into by appropriately qualified people, or that perhaps they have had dialogue with the responsible local government department and perhaps Scottish Water? Are the photographs showing previous, catastrophic failures of the local infrastructure to deal with excess water simply photoshop jobs by random members of the Dundee fanbase?

To quote @RandomGuy. from a previous thread - "Do you understand how hills work?"

What bit about the fact Tannadice isn't next to Dens Road are you disputing precisely?
