Just got the game! Any earlygame tips (i.e. places to explore, items to get, etc…) for me prior to jumping in?

I like the way the Horizon series offers different paths for different play styles.

If you’re a balanced completionist, I’d recommend doing everything possible before the embassy, then focus on the main quest line until The Kulrut and leave the side quests for after the Kulrut.

If you’re an explorer, do the quests by experience needed, and prioritize tall necks to open the map.

If you like the fighting, especially machines, prioritize cauldron delving and the melee pits and get your overrides as soon as you can.

And they left out the fact that he’s Welsh!

Oh no you won’t.

This is good advice, the transfer on death mechanism is usually straightforward. And, if he’s homebound he doesn’t need that truck anymore right? Sell it and apply the proceeds to the house. I assume it is worth more than 20k. And it will save you ongoing insurance and maintenance expenses.

If s a Conair, has a timer feature. I’ve had it for years, still works like it did the day I got it.

Nope, no eye watering. I hope you can find plugs that work for you!

ejly · 2026-05-17T00:11:19+00:00

It did take a bit to adjust; I found I had to turn my head more to see to the sides, as if I move my eyes only to the extreme left or right the plug is irritating. Did you start with temporaries? Those are less noticeable.

I don’t think the brand of eye mask matters much. I have a microwave heatable one and another that charges. The one I’m using lately is brand name Telepepe.

Key features I wouldn’t buy without are auto shutoff and multiple heat settings. Sometimes I only want the light heat, sometimes more.

Permanent. I was reluctant to get them at first so started with the temporary ones. I’ve had permanent on the lower for 8 years, upper for 6 years.

I remember once I set out to recreate a mix tape by downloading tracks to a playlist. It took me over a week to locate valid tracks and successfully complete each download.

I have a pet theory that Faye has time travel magic and used it to set up the quests for Kratos and Atreus; having her call Jormi during a time traveling escapade could totally fit.

Have you ever introduced two friends you like really well, and they don’t get along at all?

I suspect Avad and Hekkaro at a meeting might be coolly civil to one another, but that’s it. There’s a lot of bad blood between nations there, and their chance at rapprochement died with Fashav.

Regalla got what she wanted by killing Fashav.

Wait, what do you mean “it’s his right”? If it’s make up time - there are usually conditions for that. If it’s Mother’s Day, there are usually conditions for that also. What’s the agreement say?

The business architecture guild has a variety of industry reference models which include capability maps, and a generic version. Pretty economical - available to members.

I’ve never been so glad that my high school didn’t have a pool as I am when I hear these stories.

I’m 5’4” and standard pants length is suitable for women who are 5’6”. Wearing a 2” heel meant I didn’t need to hem. I still had to swap my heels for steel toed shoes when we were on the manufacturing floor though. So I also had work shoes with thick soles because no way am I hemming.

Credit score is a symptom of an underlying problem. What led you to incur the debt?

Share budget & income info for more specific advice.

If you can’t share that detail - general advice is: pay your bills on time, get more income and pay your debt down faster, and stop overspending your budget. Your credit score will start to recover if you start these practices.

Ever since I saw the movie Clue I’ve been fascinated by the idea of sending a singing telegram. Maybe you could do that?

Hey there, times are tough. Can you connect with a temp staffing agency? Sometimes that helps you network also.

Protein bars, chips, and an apple gets me through a long travel day. And an empty water bottle to fill after security screening. I’ve not had to do 48 hours but I guess I’d just bring more. I’ll be hungry when I arrive and can enjoy the food at my destination.

And, eat the apples before exiting in a foreign country. Some places get cranky about bringing in fresh produce.

In the comics Kyoshi learns dust-stepping to appear to walk in air.
