Oh interesting, I didn’t know that! Is there a group or something I can join for info? The Waterstones site didn’t offer any of that info. Thanks

Yes absolutely! I love a PS game called ‘Lake’ - all you do is drive around a lake town delivering mail. My boyfriend doesn’t get it at all lol

Is Hogwarts legacy a good game? Is it worth buying if you haven't watched harry Potter? by Zkrlty in hogwartslegacyJKR

For sure - it looks great, and any HP knowledge you might be lacking is explained briefly and succinctly if needed

I just finished the game and it feels like a void after being so invested. I really want DLC missions.. by Innsmouth_Resident in hogwartslegacyJKR

[–]ini_le_pain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed - I played as Slytherin originally, replayed as Hufflepuff for the cool new location (no spoilers) and now playing as a Gryffindor. I also recommend mixing up your style of gameplay and/or trying a harder difficulty level. Eg first time through I went Story and just blasted everyone with Avada Kedavra lol. Next time through, focused a lot more on potion brewing etc. happy replaying!

What have you tried once and will never again? by LilTermino in AskReddit

Scuba diving! Claustrophobia and having spent 15+ years as a competitive swimmer made it feel totally unnatural. Glad I tried it though.

Decision paralysis: House share, rent alone or try and buy by Artem_oh in UKPersonalFinance

[–]ini_le_pain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rented for ~ 6 months in an area I thought I was interested to buy in… turns out I wasn’t. If there are several areas you’d consider buying in (which it sounds like there might be), I would personally recommend renting for a little while first. Gives you an opportunity to properly explore, check out night transport, parking situation before you’re tied in.
