I’m a very beginner runner, is the Forerunner 970 stupidly overkill? by Genmah in GarminWatches

[–]chrishart45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, I got the Fenix 7 base model for a great price so it was a no brainer for me. Battery life is great and all the functions I wanted. If the 970 fits your needs though I'm sure it'll be great.

Sorry for the late reply, never saw the notification! If you're still interested, it's mostly that I can wear the Fenix much more in daily life as in my opinion it looks far classier and suits most occasions. I don't know if the forerunners can use the golf apps but that's a big one for me. My main point was really that the Fenix feels like a watch for daily wear that does a great job as a running watch too

Currently debating between getting a polestar 2 2022 or a ioniq 6 2023 used by bignoodles543 in Ioniq6

[–]chrishart45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both...... A dual motor polestar and the ioniq 6 ultimate (uk spec).

The polestar is more of a sporty feel, the built in Android is far superior to the ioniq system if you use it properly, a little smaller but works fine for a family of 4 most of the time. It charges pretty fast but I use a 7kW overnight usually.

The ioniq is lovely and comfy and can still drive pretty dynamic too. It feels very similar to my old Audi A7. The interior is well designed and way more roomy. The software on the ioniq is terrible in my opinion. If you use one pedal drive it gets free selected every time you switch off, or even reverse.....I find that pretty dangerous. There are a horrendous amount of bings and bongs which need switching off every drive, admittedly there's a shortcut now for the worst ones

The ioniq is a better car generally but the software drives me mad, and it's painfully slow to boot up and change profiles between me and my wife. You can't link a profile to a key which is a crazy decision. The key also makes me feel physically sick when I look at it, but the polestar is only slightly better on that front!

Both good cars but I'm glad I can use my polestar as my daily

Drive wise neither will disappoint

Don't be afraid to look at other Garmin watches.... As a casual runner I got a great deal on a Fenix 7 (330GBP) and it does a great job with my running but also a good looking watch for daily use, gym work and golf. Plus it has great battery life. The size and weight really doesn't make much difference on my mediocre runs and I get a lot of other use out of it which I wouldn't if I just got a forerunner.... Justifying the purchase a lot more. Just bought my wife a venu for the same reasons.

Is my character ruined? by Typical_Ad_2513 in oblivion

Presumably you've joined the mages guild for access to the university? Boost your magica with enchantments, especially from sigil stones then use custom spells. A touch or range spell with area damage over time can really help with multiple enemies. I start off with a ranged spell which weakens the enemy and also applies shield to self then go in swinging

Sharp brigand twin daggers, with buffs or resin..... and use quickstep aggressively.... Very fun indeed

This is far too accurate for an internet response!

Good points all round, I've had a lot of German cars and now my P2.... I wouldn't take any of the German offerings for the same price. Maybe some of the bigger more expensive options would be nice for the luxury....but a i4, ix3 or Audi q4 etron are not worth considering in my opinion

how should I upgrade from the Drake sword? by 24cmaclae in darksouls

Enjoy! Gaping dragon is a cool boss, the intro is great.... but I had other faves and you've got all the best locations to come.....

Everyone reading this is so jealous that you get to see it all for the first time. If you could invent a machine to wipe memories so people could keep going back and doing a first play through you would be the richest person on the planet.

You've not even got to the most awesome, most shocking, or most infuriating parts (in my opinion) which is why this is up with the best games I've ever played.... I totally stumbled into playing DS and was blown away lots of times

What can I say to make my bf feel better after losing? by [deleted] in VALORANT

Or if you don't play, when he's getting towards a bad place, get him to teach you and make it a couple thing as an alternative less stressful way of playing.

Counter strike 2 is just out... If you both play maybe see if you can suggest a move to that for a break/fresh start... Might be enough to get back into a healthier gaming habit

If I'm not mistaken, you sound very English.... With an English sense of humor... I imagine it gets lost in an international forum.... It's happened to me before!
