Pretty much.

In some good news, however, a large quotant of FBPE are now questioning the purpose of the Queen and suggesting regicide. At least, the ones who aren't suggesting that Boris worked his sinister Brexit magics and forced her, against her will, to prorogue parliament (that's not a joke BTW). Swings and roundabouts.

I didn’t realise it was possible to be so thrilled and at the same time completely terrified.

This is good news and I support it. And yeah everyone's loving terrified about having a kid, it's good to be, shows you actually care and also have a realistic sense of your qualifications (ie none) but just do your best to be a decent person and you'll probably raise a decent person.

Oh I did that a few years ago, and got relentlessly murdered by turtles in the Hinterlands because Mages loving suck without the right gear. For how relentlessly streamlined and efficient the game is now (and too much for my taste), I still wouldn't trade those QoL improvements for how much of a dick punch - wandering dust devils in Westfall! Defias fire mages that could one shot a clothie - some of the game could be

Thanks everyone, I’m really hoping it’s not a false positive.

Just have a million things racing through my head at the moment. The timing isn’t ideal admittedly, as we wanted to have a mortgage and our own home first, but since when do things ever go to plan? Still got 9 months to sort something out I guess, I just don’t want to be at the mercy of a landlord if I can help it.

Then I think given Hell world, climate change and late stage capitalism and wonder if bringing a new life into such a world is a good idea, but this is a new human, a new life that we made together who will go on to have hopes and dreams and aaaaaaaaaaaaa

I’m going to have some whisky.

most of the streamers I follow have been playing WoW classic and it's kind of making me want to get into it again (though really I didn't play much more than a few months and that was years and years ago) but like gently caress am I paying £15 a month for a 20-year-old game

e: on the other hand the streamer I'm currently watching has spent the last hour doing laps of a cave grinding mobs with lovely drop rates and god drat do I not miss that poo poo at all

WoW Classic is everything I don't want in a video game, seeing people playing it is like staring into a world I have no understanding of.

Quite liked FFXIV for a little while though, it's humongous but at least respects the fact that you don't have endless free time by immediately funneling you into the main story and requiring no grinding to stay at the right level for each MSQ.

I came in quite late, I think just before the sunwell patch dropped in BC, but vanilla was still there in it's dick-punching glory. Skills were expensive, drops were pitiful, green quest loot was poor and quests took you from the arse end of the EK to the other and then to Kalimdor and back. Nah, I'm good thanks
