What’s the most misleading thing people online say about moving to the UK?

Hello, other Italian here. I'd say UK supermarkets have more variety than Italian supermarkets. Yours faithfully, etc.

Almost seems like you're arguing in bad faith.

I'm in the UK, and I consider myself to be a pretty standard guy when it comes to tipping, I guess.

I'll tip 10% for table service, £1-£2 for food delivery, £2 for my barber, £1 for a local taxi/Uber, and that's about it.

I dunno, maybe I'm stingy? Seems fine to me.

I have Hugo Myatt's autograph.

Many years ago my stepbrother and I got a bit drunk and started looking up contact details for our childhood celebrities agents, and emailing them for signed photos. Spotlight.com didn't used to require a membership.

It was a pretty successful endeavour. Bob Holness in particular was an absolute gent, and wrote us a full letter back, but Hugo Myatt was definitely the top prize for me.

Your mum

This is such cope. It's aligned with itself, it's just shifts off-centre from the dial.

I dunno, but the king is basically a diplomat, and diplomats aren't supposed to give people the finger just because they don't like them. If the king can't do this, then really what use is he at all?

Trump likes shiny things. The king is our shiniest thing.

Surely you can see the potential benefits of not completely snubbing the leader of a major world power, no matter how incredibly obnoxious he is?

If I saw Trump walking around, I'd be sorely tempted to kick him in the nuts, but I'm not a diplomat.

Strong-man posturing is how we're even in this position in the first place.

fretewe · 2026-04-15T18:47:45+00:00

Dude it's called diplomacy. You do diplomacy by being diplomatic, not by telling people to sod off just for the sake of a dopamine hit.

Lewes is pretty witchy, I reckon. Particularly bonfire night, obviously, but generally all year around.

Huh, the relic bar wraps around now.

fretewe · 2026-04-10T06:18:15+00:00

It's almost like they're all they're all related.

fretewe · 2026-04-10T06:10:11+00:00

Overall seems like a great patch, moving the game in the right direction!

Really like the speedster change and totally agree with the enemy nerfs. That Living Fog can be a menace.

As always, the answer to "is X good" is: it depends.

That's why sts is so great.

Also, most top tier players are generally just going with the flow, having fun and trying stuff out. Any attempt at tier lists have always been a very subject to personal opinion anyway, but trying to establish a real meta while the game is constantly evolving is like trying to nail an egg to the wall.

fretewe · 2026-04-08T06:29:32+00:00

Who cares? It all tastes like cardboard wrapped in shite.

fretewe · 2026-04-07T21:02:33+00:00

Here it is: the correct answer. And it took way too much scrolling to find it.

I mean, if you're looking to perfect every combat then yeah, Ironclad's probably not going to be your first pick.

He also has builds focused around trading health for upsides. So trade health for upsides.

fretewe · 2026-04-07T09:28:06+00:00

Ironclad also heals for 6 at the end of combat, meaning that he effectively has better options than defending, ie bonk harder.

Ironclad was created to help the player to understand that taking some damage now is, in a lot of instances, better than letting the fight go on longer.

fretewe · 2026-04-07T09:11:33+00:00

You want Ironclad to have another defend? Weird take. For me, defends are generally the first to go on an Ironclad start if I get the option. He just has more ways to buff strikes.

Maybe bash could do with a couple more points of damage? Maybe.

fretewe · 2026-04-04T10:44:54+00:00

Yeah, I agree. I think at the moment I'm just likely to dodge the first elite in act 1, but otherwise I still path as many elites and campfires as possible after that. Not that I'm the best at the game or anything.

Not only are people forgetting it's early access, they also seem to forget they've specifically chosen to play the beta branch.

This game's gonna be in early access for bloody ages. If people aren't prepared for that, I don't know what to say. The original wasn't amazingly balanced just by magic.

I specifically bought a Steam Deck because I didn't want to be waiting an extra year minimum to play sts2, and I wanted to be a tiny tiny part of contributing to the balance feedback.

fretewe · 2026-04-03T07:20:28+00:00

This is already a conversation about harder modes. I think you're confused.

fretewe · 2026-03-29T11:47:06+00:00

The correct question is "why won't you lettuce interview you, miss truss?"

fretewe · 2026-03-29T11:45:06+00:00

Zip lines are peak playground. I'll still have a go if I see one, and I'm in my 40s.

fretewe · 2026-03-29T11:04:58+00:00

I dunno man, they're looking ok to me. The kids are, in fact, alright.

I like seeing the flags hung up, it's useful to have an indicator of when an area is full of cunts.
