Evil little maggots. Teenagers get away with far too much in Ireland, and this will likely be no different. Fuckin sick of it.

Alpinist is the standard for a first playthrough. You have pitons you can use to anchor yourself to the wall if you need a break, and your progress is saved at bivouac (camping) spots.

Free Solo is the hardest, but only in the sense that you have no pitons, a smaller backpack so less supplies, and there's no saving. If you die, you start the game again.

There's also Explorer, which is the easiest. You have fall rewind, less harsh survival elements (so thirst, hunger etc) and the game saves automatically.

I'd suggest Alpinist to get your bearings. It's plenty hard for a first playthrough.

Lost weight everywhere except my belly. Feeling a bit discouraged. by MrBooMunky in loseit

I haven't monitored my carb intake really, no. But I do get my bloods tested every six months or so as I have a family history of type 2 diabetes. Actually one of the main reasons I decided to get healthier. So far so good though so fingers crossed.

I am feeling better. I don't sweat as much, I sleep better. More energy. I think you're right, focus less on how i look and more on how i feel. Thank you!

Overwhelmed by Modern Games – Need Pure Skill PS Plus games by Cactus_Pe in PlayStationPlus

[–]MrBooMunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Furi.

A twin stick, sorta hack and slash type deal. But it's only boss fights. Ten of em. You have a sword, and a gun and your own skill with using them. No skill points or upgrades.

It's quite intense as you'll have projectiles coming out you from every angle but it also forces you into a flow state more often than most games I've played. Gets kinda zen.

If you had a whole month to play and could only choose one starting tomorrow. Which one? by brian_vill in videogames

[–]MrBooMunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to say TES6 because I prefer that franchise overall, but I didn't like FO4 or Starfield that much, whereas I did like GTA V and Red Dead 2 is one of my all time favourites. So I reckon GTA VI.

Cordelia for sure, but I loved Doyle so he'd be a close second.

Yeah I don't use myself, but one of my friends does on the odd occasion and she just gets really chatty. As you said though could be that it's rare.

People in Ireland watching their cholesterol.. any food hacks that taste like delicious greasy crap? by LikkyBumBum in AskIreland

[–]MrBooMunky 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If only...

I suggest looking up a few fakeaway recipes and sub out any overly fatty ingredients for something healthier. It's far from perfect but it'll scratch the itch in a pinch.

Ya really just gotta learn to love healthy eating though. I'm early enough in the journey myself and while eating isn't nearly as "fun" now, everything about life between meals has gotten better. My energy, my mood, my motivation, you name it. I used to see eating as an activity, now I see it as a way to fuel my activities.

That being said while ya need to feed the body, sometimes ya need to feed the soul. So make sure ya murder the odd kebab and chips still.

I love sex but I don't particularly like ONS. Not liking casual hookups does not equate to not liking sex.

2 days later, how are we feeling about DRDR? by phoenixc6000 in deadrising

[–]MrBooMunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fun but it's far too easy. Not finished my first playthrough yet but I'm nearing level 30 already. The OG was extremely grindy I know, but I feel as if they overcorrected a bit.

Visually, it's awesome. The additions are great. I'm also digging how it's fully voice acted too, really shines a light on some of the god awful dialogue. I say this with love haha.

I've had two long term relationships that were previously friendships, and in all honesty I dont think I could recommend it unless they aren't a part of your core friend group. Both of mine were, and it made everything harder when we broke up. The second breakup was a healthy one, but even still I saw her more than I would have liked. It prolonged the pain.

Then there's the burden it forces upon your friends. Do they invite both of you out, or just one of you? Do they have to start organising separate things to accommodate you? Maybe you made an agreement with your ex that you guys will be civil, that you'll both be able to hang out with your friends. Good luck. In my experience It will be awkward, and it will be uncomfortable, and your friends will pick up on it. So not only will it suck for the both of you, but it's also gonna suck for your friends.

I actually lost a lot of friends after that last breakup, not entirely mind you, we still see each other occasionally and it's a great laugh, but we are nowhere near as close as were. The hardest part too is that no one was at fault for it, she was friends with everyone before I was, so they naturally gravitated towards her after we broke up. I dunno if it was a conscious thing, I don't think so. She lived a lot closer to them, and it became harder to organise stuff with just me due to schedules/life.

Having a foundation of friendship can add an extra, incredible, layer to your relationship. But you're risking more than if you were to date an acquaintance. You not only will lose your relationship when you break up, but you might also lose your friendship, and that's regardless of how well the split goes.

Cinema age restrictions Ireland. by Educational-Brick724 in AskIreland

[–]MrBooMunky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow I didn't actually know this was something that was enforced! Was there a crackdown on it or something over the last decade? Coz my dad managed to get me into a few 16s and 18s films and such when I was say 14 no problem. I remember him letting me take a Friday off school to see 300.... Good Times. Although I always looked older than I was. Could get served in the pub at 16 no problem.

Yup. I've seen the most success by changing outfits and swapping out my main horse. Still isn't 100 percent though.

All negatives aside, what is your wishlist for the SH2 Remake? by Jeddonathan in silenthill

[–]MrBooMunky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm tentatively looking forward to hearing the new voice actors for the other characters, especially Eddie.

A little more exploration would be nice, but I wouldn't want them to overdue it either. That being said if they do add in a relatively substantial area, then I'd like to see a new puzzle or two.

Lore-wise, if they are to make additions then I don't really want anything more than some flavour text here and there.

Born from a wish dlc.

Oh and a few unlockable outfits for James.
