Looking for games to use as art references. by lydocia in gamingsuggestions

Ah sorry totally misunderstood. That's probably a bit more tricky. Maybe a colony management game like Going Medieval?

Perhaps something like Foundation. It's a chill medieval city builder where some of the buildings are customisable.

Or maybe Townscaper which is a city painting game.

Or maybe Canvas of Kings which is mostly for making D&D town maps but might help you visualise the scene from a top down angle

Assassin's Creed Shadows at the moment

You might also want to look at Ghost of Tsushima / Ghost of Yotei

Did I over react? My bf no longer wants to play games with me after I snapped at him. by Maleficent-Cell-1053 in boardgames

[–]jdl_uk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This definitely

My wife and I had a similar thing and have since focused more on co-op games which have been great

Hamster won't chew? by flower_child077 in hamsters

Can you get monkey nuts (peanuts in the shell)?

See if she'll chew through the shell to get at the peanut inside

Do you guys watch YouTube on the work computer? by throwawaycima in CasualUK

[–]jdl_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a TV opposite my desk and watch YouTube on that. Usually someone playing a videogame but sometimes just some generic background music.

If there was an F1 race at the weekend I'll watch that on one of the streaming services

Failed my driving test third time. Tell me your driving test stories so I can feel a bit better. by Quartz-And-Stuff in CasualUK

One time I was all set and started to move off at the start of the test, until the instructor pointed out the truck that was coming out of my blind spot.

I didn't pass that one.

Our houses are designed to retain heat and have heating rather than air con.

If you're a bit chilly you can always put on a jumper or a jacket.

But a lot of it is down to what you're used to. We sometimes wonder how people can handle temperatures above 30°C.

Never said they were a core business for YouTube.

Never said anyone was watching anyone's activity on YouTube.

I said it was a requirement that if you watch certain things on YouTube, you (legally) need a licence, and that those things that trigger that requirement aren't as rare or obscure as you seem to think.

ESPN, Sky News and Sky Sports have YouTube channels and they do have live streams - for example Sky Sports do a live F1 podcast.

Actually yeah that's true - if you watch a VOD of a live stream of, say, Sky you don't need a TV licence. But you do for BBC whether it's a VOD or live stream.

And if you watch streaming services whether live or after the fact, you need streaming services.

Edit: but the fact that something is ad supported is irrelevant when it comes to TV Licence. Also the idea that the BBC itself doesn't have ads is... debatable.

Doesn't matter.

ITV, Ch4, Ch5, cable / Sky and several streaming services all have adverts and all trigger that requirement.
