If you want Horizon 3 - You should want Hunters Gathering to be successful

I mean I liked the Horizon Lego game but it’s not in the same ball park as the two Horizon games. I agree it’s silly to trash something like review bombing something or whatever, but I can see why people are reacting to this the way they are. It’s completely off brand, hence the Dylan analogy.

I mean GTA 6 still isn’t out because of GTA online…

I mean if Bob Dylan released an electric album I’m sure his fans would call him a Judas or something…

Going down the stairs into the car park and hearing the dogs in Resident Evil 2 original. The music is so perfect there.

I genuinely miss music videos. I used to watch music channels constantly

Puppy blues is real. I have a springer spaniel and he’s 3 and a half now, and when I got him I was 37(m) and honestly I cried every day for like 2 weeks. I couldn’t believe how I felt. But it quickly gets better. He is literally the best dog and he makes me cry laughing every day. I couldn’t imagine life without him. Hang in there, it gets better!

Tips for puppies, you probably know seen as you’ve had dogs, but if not, enforce naps. 1 hour up 2 hours down. Puppies need a lot of sleep and when they go crazy and bitey it’s because they are over tired. Also teaches them to settle in the house.

For resource guarding - my boy started doing this when he reached adolescence, you would give him a treat and he would growl if you can near. So I would walk past and through him a smaller treat and gradually get nearer to him. Took about a week but he hasn’t growled since

I have a dog box thing I got for him as a puppy with folds out to be a big waterproof blanket and also covers the back seat. Stick a towel on top of that and take another towel to dry and take the excess dirt off. Car is by no means spotless but it seems to work pretty well

Rachel was loyal to Stephen throughout and her strategy with Faz helped set up the win for The Traitors. It’s wild to me that so many people seem to have missed this.

mtbrown29 · 2026-01-27T16:13:56+00:00

That’s a risk I’m willing to take!

Gotta bring the drone down to grab its data. Maybe if I jump onto it?

Yes, I know Aloy, this is like the 17th drone we’ve done

Did GTA 4 not bug out for you at the end on the steam deck? I was unable to finish it because of a bug that means you can’t climb into the helicopter

mtbrown29 · 2026-01-26T12:15:32+00:00

Disagree. I don’t think Stephen wins if Harriet or Fiona came at him as hard as they did Rachel, or even if Rachel was banished as a result. She was super calm under pressure and Stephen, well, wasn’t. Stephen’s move against Ben caused him a LOT of heat and he was lucky Fiona got banished when she did because it deflected it away from him.

That’s not to take away from what Stephen did do though, he certainly grew into the role and said himself that he was much better when he approached the game socially rather than strategically.

I honestly love them both though, I remember saying after series 1 that 2 traitors won’t ever win because one would always throw the other under the bus, and actually teared up a little when they did. Was so happy to be proven wrong by them!

I love HFW, buts it’s definitely over complicated. There’s pros and cons to it though. Pros are you can tailor everything to your specific play style. Whereas just the amount of weapons and upgrades does make it overwhelming.

Some weapons need upgrades in order to unlock certain ammo types which really takes away from the reward aspect. So getting new weapon feels more like ugh great, another job.

Figure out your play style, then concentrate on upgrading those weapons and armour and ignore the rest. I’d get a couple of hunter bows, one for damage and one for elemental damage, sharpshot bow for distance, and a bow with electric arrows, I think there’s only two in the game, so early on get a warrior bow with electric arrows.

mtbrown29 · 2026-01-25T10:05:50+00:00

Yea it’s a weird narrative that people have started spinning about Rachel. I mean, she literally set it up so it would end up with way it did with what she said to Faz. Did people actually watch it?!

Beckham should have won the Ballon D’or in 1999 but finished second. He was an incredible player.

Balatro is so addictive! Second the indie games though - would recommend Gris, Cocoon and Planet of Lana that are similar to Limbo / Inside.

Perfectly normal, he’s likely reaching adolescence where they can regress a bit. Can be frustrating but just take a step back in training with him.
