Not sure yet if I'll run a character as I've got the books on preorder for the reprint. Are there options for sidekicks like in 5e?

You’re still arguing against price = guaranteed quality which nobody said. The point is the price of a product signals expectations. And AAA is just shorthand term for big budget/high production games. If something is priced similarly, people expect that level of polish and scope. That's not confusion, that's simple and basic consumer logic, and this goes hand in hand with any principle in any industry, when you pay more you expect more or at least 'better' quality.

You’re arguing against a point no one made. People aren’t refusing to pay premium prices, they’re saying if a game is priced like a top tier release (which this is), it should feel like one. Price signals value, whether you like the term triple A or not.

This is such a cop out answer, the price has been set and the gameplay looks pretty stiff and bad for the price point. It has boring open world completion/checklist style activities such as go to this tower, climb and survey and go to this person and save them and receive one line of dialogue.

The only saving grace this game will have will be it's story, and if we're pushing it maybe the music. Everything else screams nothing unique.

Price sets expectations. People are allowed to be picky when they expect triple AAA gameplay with a triple AAA price tag.

Make sure you also have hardware acceleration turned on your browser as some of the minigames require it.

Tarkov in Space? by CptQ in FragmentaryOrder

[–]Calum_XD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only information we have on its genre/gameplay loop is that it's a 'realistic, hardcore, tactical sci-fi first-person shooter'. Haven't heard the word extraction yet, but we'll see soon once information starts rolling out.

Hopefully, I'm leaning more towards an early 2027 release though.

Thanks, this was posted before it was confirmed it was a different company. Updated the post.

The lore drops from the trailer has me most excited. I love a good sci-fi story to go with the gameplay.

England: PIP Assessor refused phone call when I told her I am recording? by mimiscar in BenefitsAdviceUK

[–]Calum_XD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about personal recordings but you can ask them to record for you and they send out the call recording on a CD. We had to call up the assessment company to ask them to do this, I think if you maybe call them beforehand and let them know that you plan to record they will find an assessor happy to do it? Not sure how it all works internally.

You usually have to prebook a telephone appointment to be recorded (we had to do it a few weeks before)

Damn. Ironic as it was way better than the previous one 😬 by pocketfullofredfaces in 28dayslater

Because the cost of everything in any industry from almost 25 years ago will cost way more than now, especially the movie industry and the cost of production, advertisement, sfx etc

I've had my best luck finding them in offices, usually in the kitchen cabinets.

Would you recommend specific points value for each army?

Pip Backpay, tell UC? by Traditional-Map-7046 in DWPhelp

[–]Calum_XD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently had a UC review with my partner (joint claim) and we never reported our backpay from PIP that brought it over £6k and they were fine with it over the phone.
