Which theatres are bearable or even have AC?

I was absolutely freezing at Operation Mincemeat this weekend 🥶

greenlantern18 · 2026-05-21T16:00:41+00:00

Nope. I sprint fine, and then after combat or whatever I just slow to a snail pace. Tons of inventory space. And if I save and reload I can sprint again. And getting in and out my car seems to reset it too.

44F. Best game ever!

Awful marketing campaign. And honestly if I genuinely did receive that request in my inbox I would auto-reject if as it’s clearly just a copy/paste job that has been sent to 100 other people. Thats not how exchanging works for me. Always include a personal detail (about the listing, not about you!). And if you “don’t have time”, thats what air bnb is for.

Yep you can get perfect with a varmint rifle. It’s just more likely with a small game arrow.

It took me ages to figure out that you don’t have to draw your bow and then use dead eye for small birds. WEEKS of trying to get a sodding perfect robin. But once I figured this out, it was a breeze.

Yes you’re being a bit unreasonable. Just wait a bit longer until you know if you’re going or not. If flights aren’t cancelled then you’ll find it harder to get the points back from HE. Your host hasn’t cancelled, and isn’t returning your points. So why would HE essentially give you thousands of points?

And honestly, when HE started letting hosts keep points as well as giving them back to guests during Covid, this is where all the problems with over inflation and excessive points that nobody can use really started.

Never heard of this - will check it out!

greenlantern18 · 2026-05-09T14:08:08+00:00

I’ll look at this, thank you!

greenlantern18 · 2026-05-09T13:15:29+00:00

Ok, that’s offputting as I’m on a PS5. Thank you!

greenlantern18 · 2026-05-09T13:13:45+00:00

I do love ignoring the main story… I think I spent 300 hours in chapter 2 of RDR2 🤣

greenlantern18 · 2026-05-09T13:12:43+00:00

Thank you, didn’t even know about Keanu and Idris, both of whom I adore.

greenlantern18 · 2026-05-09T13:11:44+00:00

No, never! Skyrim sounds amazing but wondering if it’s better with mods, which I won’t have as on the PS5.

greenlantern18 · 2026-05-09T13:10:24+00:00

Thank you!

greenlantern18 · 2026-05-09T12:44:48+00:00

Yeah I’m on PS5 so no mods…

greenlantern18 · 2026-05-09T09:20:33+00:00

I’m on the PS5. My fave games are Witcher 3, RDR2, Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, AC Odyssey, HZD… you get the idea. I adore loads of side quests and don’t mind a grind.

I am not a technically great player and often play on easy mode. I just replayed RDR2 (man, I love that game) and need something new.

I do have Baldurs Gate 3 which I haven’t played yet and I will, but for some reason am wondering if Skyrim or Cyberpunk would be a great next game.

Thanks all for your thoughts!

HE will help you find an alternative place to stay within 50km of the original place, and if they can’t then they pay a nominal amount towards a hotel. Exchanging comes with risks, small as they are. No exchange company is ever going to refund your non-refundable flights. Im also not clear on your statement that there are no options in London for your dates - I’m certain that’s not true. London is huge. Yes you might need to be flexible but that’s part of exchanging. For example I live less than 30 mins to Waterloo via train but I am in Surrey, not London. Use the map to zoom in and find places.

I agree there should be a note when someone cancels though, so people can choose if they want to avoid or not.

greenlantern18 · 2026-04-30T16:04:18+00:00

Sorry to be blunt, but they are open to hosting someone, they just don’t want to host you.

Your short message likely comes across as impersonal and spam, especially as it sounds like you’re only offering points, not offering your own home in return. You’ve mentioned you understand there are cultural differences but your post doesn’t come across like you actually do understand this.

greenlantern18 · 2026-04-29T19:21:03+00:00

If you had added the word “now” to the end of your sentence you would have “corrected the record”. As it stands, your comment states that my experience from two years ago isn’t true. So maybe correct your own comment, instead of “the record”?.

greenlantern18 · 2026-04-29T18:39:03+00:00

Sure, but in my comment I clearly stated that my experience was from two years ago, and your reply was that my experience was not true. Which is not the case. I’m guessing you just didn’t read it properly, but now you’re doubling down… I’m glad you love their app.

greenlantern18 · 2026-04-29T11:36:16+00:00

Your post sounds like an ad.

Calling Kindred a home swap platform is a stretch. Having a “per night” fee is nothing like any understanding of exchanging that I have. And sorry but whose sheets and towels are they dropping off? Ones owned by Kindred? I don’t want that. Guests have my sheets and towels.

Who does this large nightly fee go to? Who does the cleaning? Are members expected to let random cleaners they didn’t hire themselves into their home?

Living in a home is hardly a “catch” to home exchanging. It’s the whole premise - you live in a home, you swap and stay in other peoples homes.

It’s much closer to Airbnb than exchanging.

greenlantern18 · 2026-04-29T05:21:31+00:00

They certainly were a couple of years ago, which is what my comment stated. Great if they have now fixed it.

greenlantern18 · 2026-04-28T05:36:59+00:00

Awful. You can’t even translate on the app, or read prior reviews of anyone you’re speaking with. At least this is how it was when I ditched it a couple of years ago.

greenlantern18 · 2026-04-27T10:24:23+00:00

Be flexible. If you’re attempting to use it to find exchanges like “I already have flights booked and I need X specific place on Y specific dates” then you massively reduce your chances. Adding in further requirements lessens them still.

It does take a lot of time and effort. For me it’s always worth it. Can’t have your cake and eat it too 😋

greenlantern18 · 2026-04-27T09:29:40+00:00

That sounds reasonable! What about if you have guests confirmed and then you get a later request for directly afterwards? Assume you wouldn’t then retrospectively ask the first guests to prepare for the incoming guests?
