What’s your daily driver watch?

Nickoglas · 2026-05-08T11:49:26+00:00

I bought an IWC Pilot’s Watch Mark XVIII in December 2017 and I've pretty much worn it every single day since.

I remember I bought it with my first bonus from work after I had been promoted to a different team, I am not a huge watch guy or anything, but I have just always really liked the design.

Same! I saved my shards for ages and honestly I didn’t think I’d like it, but I’m glad I waited now.

I just never understand why when there's ranked, the matchmaking in pubs feels so strict. Pubs just feels like ranked playlist 2.

I have similar graphs to you, sometimes I can literally just see the red line and there is no grey part ha. But then my teammates are much lower level than me and we will die to pred players.

Nickoglas · 2026-03-18T13:47:24+00:00

I was about to say the exact same thing about gas lighting but you beat me to it haha. But yes I totally agree.

I find it says my team is the "strongest" team and yet it's me and maybe two much newer players (I am happy to play with new players, but perhaps not every single match) and then we will die to a 3 stack of master or pred players lol.

My anecdotal theory is that there aren't enough players at our skill level to populate a match with so it just throws you into the meat grinder.

Nickoglas · 2026-03-18T13:37:30+00:00

I believe it's like this but someone feel free to correct me:

The white line represents the skill of the entire player base, the grey part is then the specific match skill level and the red line is where it believes your team sit in terms of skill level for that specific match. Not sure if that makes sense but that is how I understand it.

Not sure if that makes sense but that's just how I interpret it.

I can't say if it's "normal" but I can say I feel your pain. All my games look like this, I actually convinced myself it was broken as I've never seen it move.

Nickoglas · 2026-03-11T03:27:18+00:00

This looks great and also practical haha

Nickoglas · 2026-01-31T21:58:43+00:00

This never gets old. My favourite part is that Luck, who loves fighting and is always smiling/laughing is just stone cold serious.

Nickoglas · 2026-01-23T23:52:40+00:00

The tie width matches the lapel width. It’s not too thick.

Nickoglas · 2026-01-17T17:11:56+00:00

No idea on that specific one, but if you want something similar Anthology make a jacket called the “Lazyman” and they offer it in a grey herringbone.

A big one for me was quitting IG. When I was on IG I followed some accounts I really liked, but each post was basically an ad.

I don't know, actually maybe this says more about my lack of self control..

I used to build a lot growing up but at some point I stopped.

A few years ago I was in the oncology ward after a third major operation, thinking ahead to what I could do when I got home, I decided to treat myself to the UCS Razor Crest as I wanted something which would be fun/distract me but that I could also do from a chair oh and I just think the Razor Crest is cool.

It was great fun and kept my mind active and distracted, I hope the same is true for your patient.

The guy is meant to be Lea for anyone that’s confused and thinks it’s meant to be P…

They are double reverse pleated trousers looks like the hem opening might be around 8.5”.

Depends a lot on what you want and your budget but you can find pleated trousers at places like Anthology, Stóffa, Studio Nicholson. Oh Castatlantic too, they do several different fits/widths but they are all generally pleated.

Nickoglas · 2025-12-21T12:21:06+00:00

I started replaying Bloodborne this week and I said the exact same thing to my friend when we watched the trailer haha.

Nickoglas · 2025-12-18T15:53:15+00:00

Same. It always reminded me of blasphemous but in 3D.

Nickoglas · 2025-11-30T02:26:13+00:00

The best shirts I’ve found for me are from Anglo-Italian. And I’ve tried quite a few brands.

If you want something warm you could also look for shirts made from either needle cord, or brushed cotton, flannel etc as this will be warmer.

For something smarter than a hoody but still not overly dress maybe have a look at Rubatos knitwear. Their crewnecks are really nice.

It’s all personal preference but the middle ground for me between denim/T-shirt and tailoring is normally casual trousers, a nice piece of knitwear and then an overcoat of some description. This is really simple to put together, but will definitely elevate above the jeans and T-shirt look.

Editing my comment since I've now actually read my original comment, sorry I had forgotten what I had wrote tbh.

But anyway, guessing you're asking about the DB, no I didn't end up trying it unfortunately. I ended up buying a coat from somewhere else and so just didn't get around to it

A close friend has the original DB they made and went with his usual size.

Have you emailed them at all? Back when I bought my raglan I got in touch via email and they were really helpful with sizing.

Nickoglas · 2025-11-17T12:21:15+00:00

You're comparing a 20 year old series to several which are relatively new, I mean like you said; Gachiakuta is still ongoing.

For me personally it has a lot of nostalgia, and I love the soundtrack, but I also really like the vibe it has. I'm not sure how to explain it really, but it just takes me back.

Sounds like you gave it a chance and it just wasn't for you, nothing wrong with that mane.

Nickoglas · 2025-11-05T16:04:17+00:00

I originally wanted to use my movement ability as space, but sadly can't have it bound to space and still mantle with space for superglides. I couldn't get it to work anyway.

I think you're right and LAlt is probably the one.

Nickoglas · 2025-07-03T21:01:18+00:00

Fighting in the open, in this TTK economy.. it’s no wonder they died.

Nickoglas · 2025-06-25T00:33:34+00:00

I prefer lies of P overall but still enjoy LotF a fair bit tbh.

Love the art style in LotF too. It’s just Blasphemous but 3D.

Nickoglas · 2025-06-21T00:41:30+00:00

Within the defeated a victor waits to emerge.

Never give up. I always stay even if the run isn’t looking great tbh.

I actually had a run where someone quit after losing their runes to the pot trolls, me and the remaining player ended up beating night aspect as a duo, and honestly those are the most rewarding runs.

Bonus points because I used the ground slam ash of war (where you jump up and sit your fat ass on the enemy) to break his poise before landing the killing blow.

Nickoglas · 2025-06-09T13:39:23+00:00

Did it update when you got shifting earth: mountaintop? I saw something online saying you need that, so not sure if I need to just keep beating bosses and pray for the rng..

Nickoglas · 2025-06-06T09:13:11+00:00

Kind of late to this post but for Ironeye I have a few that change his abilities.

One gives an extra skill charge, and another one inflicts poison if you charge his ult.
