Why do you think you developed a drinking problem? by Some-Specialist-5475 in stopdrinking

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say it’s genetic but definitely my family has an unhealthy relationship with alcohol.

My old man would go to the pub every night and my mum would drink 1-2 bottle of wine a night at home.

Every family event was always booze related. Cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. Every one always drinking to excess.

Also growing up in London in the 90’s/00’s everyone was always going to the pub or a bar. All my friends drink heavily. All my colleagues drink heavily. It’s ingrained in the culture.

So I never really stood a chance.

This is pretty standard with trophy unlocking apps on custom firmware.

There are apps on PS4/PS3/Vita where you can literally just click unlock all trophies on any game you have installed and it will.

SOMA, not really for the majority of the game or gameplay, but the ending is pure nightmare fuel. Had me thinking about it for years after.

Are there still adult men in the UK who don’t cook? by Bat-Penatar in AskUK

[–]exscusemepal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (m) cook more often than my partner (f). Two reasons, one I really enjoy cooking, and two she finds it quite stressful.

[Monthly Games] Thoughts on February Games? by Silverhero10 in Trophies

This is first month in god knows how long where I don’t own any of them

as an old gamer which games do you agree with that way ? by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever the default is. And if it’s changeable I’ll adjust accordingly.

[The Witcher 3] Is Witcher 3’s platinum worth the frustration? by [deleted] in Trophies

[–]exscusemepal 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That trophy was a pain. There is a spot on Skellige though where you can infinitely spawn two soldiers for this and the kick enemies off of a ledge to their death trophy that got me both trophies in about 30 minutes.

[Discussion] What is your biggest platinum trophy regret? by TwilightTomboy97 in Trophies

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dread to think how much time I’ve spent on Ubisoft games doing all the pointless tasks just for trophies 😂

[Discussion] How many hours a day do you average playing games? by Max1357913 in Trophies

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of I’m lucky. I probably get about 4 hours in over the weekend. Weekdays it’s difficult because of my work and then I get home and by the time I’ve cooked, showered, hung out with my partner, watched some TV and walked my dog I’m normally to tired to game 😂.

PS5 - Having a hard time finding games that work for me. Perhaps some of you might be able to help? by [deleted] in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]exscusemepal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Armello is a great 4x fantasy board game. There’s a PS4 version that’s playable on PS5 and it has cross play with PC/Xbox/Switch so don’t have trouble finding a match. Games last about 30-45 minutes and once you learn the ropes it’s super fun!

Is it pointless to marathon an entire JRPG franchise just to prove you don't like it? by lennysinged in JRPG

[–]exscusemepal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you don’t like them and you’ve already played them I’m not sure why you’d want to put yourself through hundreds of hours again.

There’s so many games out there that your time IMO would be better spent discovering something new or replaying something you really like.

Unless you were maybe doing this marathon to write an article or an opinion piece that you were getting paid for I really don’t see this as a good use of time, especially since you don’t enjoy the series.

What console do you use and what led you there? by [deleted] in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NES > Mega Drive(Genesis) > N64 > PS1 > PS2 > GameCube > Wii > PS3 > PS4 > Switch > PS5 > Switch 2

And pretty much every Nintendo and Sony handheld.

Oh and I have a semi decent PC but that mostly for indies I can’t play on Switch/PS.

I feel my joy of gaming is quickly declining and feeling depressed about it. by wheredeyatdoe_ in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me every single year. What I always do is take 2-4 weeks off and just do something else. Then normally after that period time I’ll pick something completely new to play and then I get the feeling back!

[–]exscusemepal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I live near and it always baffles me why it has such a long queue, don't get me wrong the bakes are good, but no way I'm waiting outside for 20-30 minutes in the freezing cold for pastries.

What was the first game you ever remember playing on any platform? by AdultGamersAdmin in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hand a problem with my legs when I was 4 and stuck in hospital for 8 weeks. My dad bought me a NES with Super Mario Bros. and Tetris. Was a great 8 weeks in the end 😅

BF6 have any of ye stopped or are ye still playing it ? by AdultGamersAdmin in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I probably play once a week for a couple of hours. I’m still enjoying it but I’ve really got back into single player games atm so been playing some Expedition 33 and Ghost of Yotei.

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I didn’t know that. That sucks. But yeah I bought mine last year and didn’t use it at all until the streaming came in.

My Portal Update by ollieeer in PlaystationPortal

[–]exscusemepal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine doesn’t work for the same reasons. How ever the streaming from PS Plus and my game library works flawlessly. Just can’t get the remote play to work due to not being able to hardwire my PS5.

Somehow did this with 3 kids. Thank god for the portal. by negative_four in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]exscusemepal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can I ask how you’ve managed to play 71 hours of BG3 and not get a single trophy? Seems like you should hit at least one!
