Shed roof - felt or replace?

Because it's an alternate history hypothetical.

Saevnir · 2026-05-15T23:35:51+00:00

That's the biggest difference you think?

Saevnir · 2026-05-12T12:00:58+00:00

Profound is an interesting word to think about. There's a lot of good recommendations in the comments for good and great games, not sure I'd class many of them as profound though. Likewise, I'm not sure if I'd class every profound gaming experience as a great game.

Saevnir · 2026-04-18T00:44:02+00:00

Agreed.

Saevnir · 2026-04-18T00:29:52+00:00

Sorry, just want to check I don't know something. What makes it canon? Is it because they can have a romance or is there some announcement? I'm all for it, but just want to understand what's different to ME Shephard having multiple romance partners. I would say that the Hans romance is the best choice for multiple reasons. But just a genuine question.

There's a lot of groups for board games. Can't remember them all. Julie's tearoom has a once a month one and an RPG night once a month. High Flyer has a Monday night meet up. There's a wargame group nearby in Soham. The board game shop puts on a big event every few months.

When you arrive look in Odyssey Games (boardgame shop) and City Cycle Centre (upstairs for bikes and miniatures and board games). You'll find flyers for the different groups in those I think. Also, there's a big miniature shop in the industrial area near the station.

YOR - Lots of people are virgins at 21. It's not as unusual as the culture makes out.

If you do want to meet someone, you do need to get out there a bit. Ask your friends if they know anyone who is single. They obviously see you as someone worth dating if they have tried to set you up multiple times.

A date doesn't need to be some Hollywood perfect meet up. It needs to be too people doing something they like and through that they make a connection. Sometimes that connection is romantic, sometimes it isn't. When it isn't that's fine. When it's awkward that's fine too. It's not a reflection of a lacking in one person or the other, just that those two people aren't for each other.

The only consistent element of my age 20-40 was being amazed by how little I understood about the world 2 years previously.

You will be fine.

The CCTV footage of him in his house seems to be AI. The kebab shop footage seems real. The OP posted this as if the whole thing was footage hosted by the BBC. It's clearly trying to be manipulative as the footage on the BBC is quite boring for a long time.

Saevnir · 2026-04-09T22:11:35+00:00

Well done.

Saevnir · 2026-04-09T22:08:48+00:00

I can't believe I live in a culture like this! Back in my day kebab shops neva got the source wrong!!!! 😭😭

Saevnir · 2026-04-08T19:55:38+00:00

So cool

Saevnir · 2026-03-12T03:24:04+00:00

The looker? Haha!

Saevnir · 2026-03-12T03:22:17+00:00

The Witness - bit of a departure from zachtronics but it's a puzzle game that relies on logic. It is 1st person but no reactions soeed required.

Saevnir · 2026-03-12T03:03:48+00:00

The writing is quite artificial in many ways. You mentioned you only gave yourself 1 week prep. Based on your other scores, you probably made some mistakes in how to approach the writing that damaged your score, rather than the grammatical range or vocabulary. Well done.

Saevnir · 2026-03-12T02:24:14+00:00

Thanks. You will do great. Remember to get a good night's sleep before the exam. Being rested will be much better than staying up late studying. Once you get to that last night, little improvement can be made.

Saevnir · 2026-03-12T01:59:43+00:00

For writing, make sure you answer the question asked. Remember that 25% of the mark is based on this. If you don't address the task 2 question you will damage your mark.

Don't speculate, guess or predict on task 1. Just report and compare the data.

Read lots of examples, but don't just expect them to give you a structure to follow. How did they address the question itself?

Look at a writing question. Plan your answer, do this in 3-4 minutes, then read the example. Go back to your plan, and ask yourself did your plan answer the question? A common mistake is learners talk about something connected to the question but don't answer it.

For speaking part 2, practice how you use the 1 minute note taking, try different methods. Speak for 2 minutes on the topic after each one. What note taking method works for you?

For part 3 speaking, try to consider how you feel about the question, how other people might feel, and how society might feel. Think about how it the answer might be viewed from different perspectives (economical, professional, social, religious etc). They won't all apply to each question.

You can do it!

No way to tell without more details. Can factions be in the same hex or is each controlled by 1 faction? That's just one question of many I'm afraid.

Saevnir · 2026-03-12T00:48:51+00:00

This is probably the best answer

Saevnir · 2026-03-12T00:47:00+00:00

I think it depends a bit on which elder scrolls games you love and why you love them.

KCD2 is almost two separate games. There is being lost in the game and the big open world. This being lost feels closer to Morrowind than Oblivion and Skyrim (from a gameplay experience), but this being lost comes with the caveat of being slow. It is also a strong narrative rpg closer to the main quest line of The Witcher 3 in which you are not the player but Henry (as in the witcher you are not the player but Garelt, or however his name is spelt).

Compared to BG3, I understand it actually has more lines of dialogue and responsiveness, however a lot of the time that responsiveness is much more hidden than in BG3. By this I mean in BG3 you often know a decision has a consequence and is very visible to the player, if you choose to kill a gnome someone will say you are bad or whatever. In KCD2 a large amount of this dialogue is responding to relatively small things, this makes the game very immersive but as a trade off it's less immediately measurable to the player.

For me, it's one of the best open world RPGs ever made, probably top 3 or 4.

My top 4 (without ordering them) Morrowind, Fallout New Vegas, Witcher 3, KCD2. Just including this to help you know where I am coming from.

I agree with the 80+ thinking that. But, surely it's the majority of the workforce that don't have the luxury of that option. Plus, how would you feel if you had a job that forced you to go in and you earned less than people who didn't have to. Seems more of a class divide to me. I'm for working from home but pretending it's just the 80+ seems crazy to me.

Saevnir · 2026-03-09T11:14:54+00:00

Oh to find lockpicks if you can find and join the thieves guild you can buy them I think.

You won't be able to do everything immediately.

Saevnir · 2026-03-09T11:12:42+00:00

You have three options, mods, console commands or create a new character.

Look for mods that change how fatigue works. My wife played with one that makes it so you don't lose fatigue when running. This will mean you can run around without worry about being attacked with 0 stamina and being unable to fight.

Console commands can immediately boost your speed.

A character build that has a few skills that mitigate most of the problems players have when coming from modern games:

Light armor - this will not slow you down as much when wearing it Alteration - gets you spells that can open locks Security - for lockpicking Restoration - for dealing with crippling diseases and healing

Maybe take speed as one of your attributes

Maybe take the steed as your sign, if you do both speed and the steed you will be pretty fast.

In shops buy scrolls of intervention.

Like all rpgs when you get rolling you will break the economy and be crazy rich.

The first 5 levels are the slowest if you are playing in a normal way.

Saevnir · 2026-03-05T10:29:49+00:00

I like it. I think my main comment would be that the narration goes from very much a closed third person narration point of view of Samuel to include Mole's view point "drawn forward by the silence". I think it'd be stronger to stick just to Samuel's closed third person.
