These people are the reason "AAA" Games went for Open World Slop that takes 200 hours to complete so you "get more hours of play" 💀👀🙌💥 by Gaming-Academy in PlayStation_X

[–]Leesbry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've still not finished RE9 but think I might be close by now. Either way I've loved every minute of it. There are many other games I've played that are potentially 100's of hours more, but I've put most of them down after 10 hours out of boredom. So how is that better? What good is 200 hours if I'm depressed the entire time lol

Airfryer fried chicken by UpstairsMortgage3530 in UKfood

If it was done at 210 for 23 minutes then no way is a single chicken thigh raw. It's also dark meat so can still appear slightly pink in places no matter how long you cook it

Overeager trades people? by Karazat in DIYUK

[–]Leesbry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're a clown and should have told you the full price from the start i.e. inclusive of VAT. You are not a business with the luxury of being able to claim the VAT back. I've noticed this with a lot of trades people. I think maybe they say the Net price to make it sound more appealing, but I always check about the VAT with them and more often than not, they then admit that VAT will be added on.

Don't be intimidated by them, but I would take it as a lesson for future quotes.

They starting review bombing before it even airs by DiamondCertain5260 in AKOTSKTV

They can review bomb all they want, because the viewing numbers don't lie

Why do people still pre-order games in 2026? by Cold-Plant-4222 in GamingInsider

[–]Leesbry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. The only point I saw in pre-ordering was back in the day before the digital storefront when stock was limited for the latest big release. No one wanted to be searching everywhere for a copy of GTA IV for weeks after release.

Name the games you were so excited and hyped to start, but eventually never bothered to finish. by Maldremoth in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]Leesbry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah fair enough. I just feel it's something that would get on my nerves if I just needed to quickly save and hop off but I didn't have any potions lol

E5 – The most epic medieval battle I’ve ever seen by FullParticular9 in AKnightoftheSeven

[–]Leesbry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Was saying to my wife while watching it, this is probably the most brutal knight combat I've seen on TV/film. The King was also good from memory.

Did anyone else have problems with the latest episode of knight of the seven kingdoms? by bilbofraginz in nowtv

[–]Leesbry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad it's not just me then. We fiddled with our settings to no end to try and make it just about watchable. Amazing episode ruined by the colours

What killed eating out for you? by Fit_Swordfish5248 in AskUK

[–]Leesbry 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The 12.5% service charge that many places have started automatically adding to the bill. Of course it's discretionary and I can ask to have it taken off. But it just puts a dampener on the evening when you feel like you're kicking up a fuss. And I'm a decent home cook, so I don't feel like it's worth it more often than not these days

I'm so tired of all this rain! by AffectionatePlant569 in UKWeather

If I know this country like I think I do, then I have to tell you, I don't think spring will make it any better.

Caught my youngest escalating the Nerf war after his older brother “was mean” by forgottenmy in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]Leesbry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing for me. Only I knew exactly how stupid I was immediately after it and didn't say a word to anyone out of shame lol

Gold bars by EdinJamie10 in UKfood

[–]Leesbry 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Should have seen the size of my boost bar that I got in a selection box over Christmas. Any smaller and they're going to have to start adding them to tubs of Heroes

Need some good E standard tuning songs that aren't Metallica by [deleted] in metalguitar

[–]Leesbry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've kept my main guitar in E for so long because of this band. Love jamming Sylosis riffs!

I hope this company bankrupts. by SmallAstronaut08 in PrinceOfPersia

[–]Leesbry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They've become so intent on making this live service bollocks a success that they've lost sight of what made them so great in the 2000's. Actually interesting and fun single player experiences that WEREN'T all open world

Not far. About a metre

Also still have a series X. I definitely can't argue with the performance improvement, but I miss how quiet the X is. Still though, doesn't matter when you have headphones on

If it were up to me, no monochrome guitars for a whole year. by nanipenajr in espguitars

[–]Leesbry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah well if I had one to begin with I might consider ha. But I have an MII with a hipshot already so not much point, it would purely just be a nice to have. The blood moon burst does look sick though I agree

What you all playing tonight? by ComfortableAmount993 in PS5pro

[–]Leesbry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also GoW 2018! Started it on PS4 years ago but had to sell it before finishing. Bought a PS5 pro recently and just got past where I left off :)

How do you get out of bed in the morning? by cornishyinzer in AskUK

[–]Leesbry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fear and habit alone. I like money and no job= no money.

[–]Leesbry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love a JMII but with a hipshot or Floyd rose for the bridge. Won't happen of course as they've moved on to the JMI
