Physical Editions of Starfield will not contain a game disc
  • I guess the reason it'll have a physical release is that they want to get it into stores. As much as things are going digital, having product on stores and in front of people who otherwise might not know about it is still a pretty solid way of moving units.

  • Best and worst murder mysteries / thrillers
  • I'm not sure they really fit into the category of murder mystery that you're looking for, but I recently read both The Seven Deaths if Evelyn Harcastle and The Devil and the Dark Water and absolutely loved both of them.

    Desert Island Discs: Book edition.

    Stranded on an Island. By random chance you've got your three favourite books with you.

    What are you reading?

    Let's get some conversation going and lift this community. So, what's your greatest sporting achievement?
  • Once scored an overhead kick during our in-school football tournament. Even got a pat on the back from one of the bigger kids.

    I peaked at 9 years old.

    You get to play one videogame for the first time again. What you picking?

    Okay. If you could play any videogame again for the first time, what would it be?

    Favourite game music?
  • The Outer Wilds soundtrack is something I go back to regularly. Even considered buying the Vinyl...and I have no way of playing it.

  • What are you reading this week? [6/18/23]
  • I'm still working my way through The Social Distance Between Us by Darren McGarvey. I mainly read at work, so maybe only 30 minutes a day, but I'm slowly getting through it.

    I also just finished reading through George RR Martin's A World of Ice and Fire.

  • Videogame tracking question.
  • I've been searching for a 'letterboxd for games' for years, and iirc that's partly what Ggapp bases it's site on. I'll absolutely give Backloggd a look though, thanks.

  • Monday morning musings
  • Desperately hoping my 16 month old has a nap so I can start my next book.

    Videogame tracking question.

    I've been a user of GGapp.io for a good few years now, and whilst the service has always been pretty solid, I'm wondering if maybe it's worth taking a look at an app called Questlog.app.

    So in short, I'm just sort of wondering if anyone has any experience with the two?

    If this sort of content isn't allowed then feel free to delete. Thank you.

    Where's everybody from?
  • Leicester

  • Sunday chat
  • Fathers day. Mum is at work however, so my day is like any normal Sunday... Looking after a sassy five year old and a miserable one year old.

    Le sigh.

    Favourite Game of 2023 so far?

    We're getting towards the mid-point of the year, and (unless I've missed it) I can't seem to find a thread for discussing what our favourite games of the year have been.

    So, what have been your favourite gaming experiences so far?

    Redfall developer Arkane currently safe, Microsoft says
  • Wasn't it recently reported that Microsoft and Bethesda had no real love or interest in the game, and they sort of just left them to it?

  • What are some good switch games for kids to keep their brains active?
  • My (then) four year old had a lot of fun with Donut County. For the most part she figured it out entirely on her own and even managed to beat it. And given the nature of the puzzles involved, I like to think she learned a thing or two at the same time.

  • Who else lost their Steam Deck to their kids?
  • They've already taken the SX, the PS5 and the Switch. I'm not even going to let them have a sniff of the Steamdeck.

    Once my eldest gets her hands on it I'll never see it again.

  • What do people use to track their reading?
  • Goodreads, although if I can figure out the process of exporting my data over to Bookwrym then I'll likely do that.
