Well of course not, they're not stupid—look how it turned out last time

Start cramming the Doctor Who and Monty Python! Oh, and Young Ones, of course.

Peep Show is really more my speed and I've only half watched Doctor Who, starting with Eccleston through to Picardi, but stopped there. Felt kind of weak at that point and Sonic Sunglasses were ******* dumb.
I think we did actually get through the Series with him as the Doctor, but never got around to watching the next series. It was really more my wife's interest, so I mostly only paid half attention and I'm pretty sure she watched plenty without me.I really disliked Peter Capaldi at first, but he has some really great episodes. The episode "Heaven Sent" in particular is really good and "Fatality Index" has one of my favourite Doctor Who moments.
I have only seen 2 or 3 episodes of the one after Capaldi and didn't really care for those, but maybe the later episodes are also better.

No. No!! That isn't true! That's IMPOSSIBLE!!Haven't seen any Doc Who....
That's IMPOSSIBLE!!
Fromsoft Merch seems to sell out quick, any book or guide starts going for 5 or 10 times more on Ebay when theyre out of stock, its an investmentThe DLC for Elden Ring has its own collector's edition. If you're wondering how much it costs, this product is not for you. If you SHOULD be wondering about the cost, this product is also not for you.
I don't remember ever seeing a collector's edition of a DLC before.

Oh wait, wrong IP....
imo timed missions are the worst.Haven't seen any Doc Who, but Peter did a great turn in Prime Suspect 3 which I watched last week.
Uninstalled Far Cry 5 in disgust when one of the obnoxious capture sequences bugged out on me. It was the last of the 9 'regular' ones too—I'd eliminated Faith and John, and this was #3 for Jacob.
These set pieces are so stupid, get this: they happen as you make progress in each region, after roughly 25%, 50%, and 75% completion—so they can be many hours of gameplay time apart. So you'd expect 3 different if annoying encounters—but what you get is the exact same mission each time!
My guess is there's less time in each repeat, but how stupid is that, repeating the exact same mission? There's a lame-ass excuse about this conditioning you to kill one of your friends, but that was pretty obvious going in—there had been a load of broad hints dropped to that effect beforehand.
Anyway, 3rd repeat I failed a couple of times doing it the 'normal' way—ie melee corridor shooting, exchanging weapon for stronger guns at transition points. So I ignored the guns and just did takedowns, which worked a treat and left me with more time than usual when I finished it by killing my buddy. But the damn thing didn't end—Jacob told me to 'Keep Moving'… which I did, until the timer reached zero and mission failed.
Here's my current In Play:
I would never buy that, but if I were someone who would buy that, I still wouldn't buy it unless I could pick it up and take it to a register then drive home with it. There is no chance I would get that in the mail before the DLC releases. That's just the way things work, at least for me.The DLC for Elden Ring has its own collector's edition.

Highly recommend it as a hobby and painting is easier than you probably think. 5 years ago I could never imagine myself doing it, but here I am...I would never buy that, but if I were someone who would buy that, I still wouldn't buy it unless I could pick it up and take it to a register then drive home with it.

All that said, I would love to have that figurine. I need to get into making my own figurines like @BeardyHat or my old friend, Amy, who lives in Vermont and has her own shop.

I’d say going straight into 3 would be best as each game is essentially a better improved version of the last. They try to jam in some sort of backstory which is entertaining to watch but not essential to the core gameplay experience at all. The third game just feels the most polished with the most amount of content and levels included. There are some DLC available for purchase but the base game seems like it will take a very long time to unlock everything.@neogunhero I really liked those games. I have always planned on going back and finishing them, or at least trying to finish them, on a higher difficulty, but I've never gotten around to it.
“new player pit stop” … help other players is very fun and I enjoy doing it
Love Fallout 76. Put 100s of hours into it. Built some mighty fine bases if I say so myself. I quit playing right after the basement update.I’d say going straight into 3 would be best as each game is essentially a better improved version of the last.

I wish I would have gotten back into Fallout 76 right as the show launched. I’m a little late to the huge influx of new players, but when playing last night there was till 52K players online which is massive for FO76. The reason being is that I wanted to create a “new player pit stop” right along the road to the first main mission after leaving the Vault. I tried to do that yesterday but ran out of materials, I completely forgot to scrapping your base does not give you 100% of crafting resources back. I got the main structure built though, it hangs over the main road that a lot of new players follow to the first mission, and I’m going to have tons of lights around it. It will be full of all crafting stations, beds, any decoration that gives you buffs (musical instruments, gymnastics equipment, bench press, etc), stash boxes and my bartender. It will also have vending machines full of ammo, aid items, low level and cheap weapons, clothing, armor, everything you need to outfit yourself for adventure. I plan on making the vending machine prices very fair for new players. That’s one thing I love about this game, doing stuff like this to help other players is very fun and I enjoy doing it.

I haven’t tried out the basement base building parts much at all. I much rather have a large monumental base that players can come across while wandering the world, however it sounds like the basements are where the best decorated player homes are at. I don’t think I’ve ever visited another players basement home yet.Built some mighty fine bases if I say so myself. I quit playing right after the basement update.
I wanted to start a new character but I ran into that exact problem, no way am I gonna scrounge for enough resources when I have a character with 150 hours that has it all already lol. I started playing my old character and it’s just the getting used to my build part that has been difficult. Also, imo FO76 is the best MMO for people like me who don’t want to use a mic, but still want some minimal player interactions. Nearly every person you come across just emotes at you, runs around your base, then leaves. I also really enjoy how there is no PVP if you don’t want any.Every time I've started a MMO I will get the idea to do something similar, then quit playing well before I have enough money or resources to actually do something like that.
Also I don't like interacting with strangers.

I finished all the main parts of the new player friendly base. All crafting stations, a few beds, stash boxes, bench press station, guitar, and got my vending machines up and running, though I want to go through all my items for sale and rework the prices to be more affordable. Right now I’m focusing on decorating the base and gathering more items to sell that will benefit new players.
I had to grind a bit for some screws. I went to Wendigo Cave, which according to Co-Pilot, should have tons of screws. I found maybe two. I then found a Reddit post from 6 years ago that suggested a specific office building called Sugar Grove, so I headed over there and found about 30 total screws, though I think I have a perk to give me a chance to get more components when scrapping.
I had a few newbies come over and take a look but left pretty quickly. I need to find a way to make them aware of the buffs you get from sleeping, working out and playing an instrument. They’re easy to miss if you aren’t aware of them because it takes almost a full minute of interacting with those things to get the buff, but they’re really beneficial especially when first starting out.
I’ll post some tonight! It’s definitely function over style, but I still like how I laid it out. I hope it gets a lot of use and helps some players out.you should post some screenshots if you get a chance.
I far prefer function over style and will gladly kill all aesthetics to make something more functional. When it's as functional as it can get, like in Enshrouded all the crafting tables and storage and buffing decorations are properly taken care of, then I do try to style it up a bit, but I never create anything special. Looking at my bases and not being revolted is acceptable.I’ll post some tonight! It’s definitely function over style, but I still like how I laid it out.

I have both the Scavenger Collectron and the bartender human ally. The bartender is cool because he adds to the look and feel of the base, but he is very chatty. While building up my base I kept quoting him because he only had a couple idle lines that get recycled over and over lol. I haven’t tried to new ally that came out with the show, I’m not sure what purpose that guy serves.By the way, my favorite house companions in 76 are the robots that go out and find things. Mostly it's just because they are hilarious. In that case, making me laugh beats function.
