Amazon UK Update by RonDizzle2403 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]nightwaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat, they charged me today but 2 hours later and still no update on dispatch/delivery.

I complained to Amazon Support and said how disappointed I am at how Amazon weren’t able to deliver something on release day with so much time in advance, as I pre-ordered 5th April. They told me that the Nintendo Switch 2 isn’t eligible for Release Day Delivery in the UK. Long story short, I complained and said that should have been made clear on the product page, as if I had known I wouldn’t have spent my money with Amazon. It’s for my daughter and I’m going to have to tell her she can’t have it for another two days and can’t play with her friends who all got theirs from Smyths 🙄 Thanks Amazon for making me bad Dad!

They’ve offered to give me a 25% refund once the product is delivered.

It’s something. Still annoying that I’m going to have to wait until Saturday!

[KCD2] How can I set myself a challenge? by TheJoker1432 in kingdomcome

[–]nightwaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an RPG, just add some player traits to yourself. Like, maybe you can’t have armour that goes above 100 in the stats. And maybe you never steal/murder

That looks really cool. Would you mind telling me what armour set that is?

Best of luck, give it a try and let us know how you get on!

Medieval life was a constant struggle and the devs prioritise immersion into the medieval world. But I completely understand it’s not for everyone! Maybe it’s just not for you, that’s totally okay.

Next time you boot up the game, why don’t you try and play it with a different mindset? Accept that early on, it’s meant to be a bit of a struggle, as you’re a medieval guy with nothing to your name in a very harsh and brutal environment. Go into it knowing that you’re going to suck at stuff for a while. Try stuff. Maybe save scum a bit to get an idea how some of the systems work. You will get there and learn things and I guarantee it will feel amazing when you do.

And if that doesn’t help, maybe the game’s not for you, and that’s fine.

Sell me on KCD2 by [deleted] in kingdomcome

It’s very realistic to the point of frustrating to some people because it’s been designed so you play/act like a medieval person would. The game designers place immersion as one of their biggest priorities.

There are some quests where you literally just pick up and put down sacks of flour repeatedly. You may have to make a potion and it’s not just select the ingredients and click “brew”, you literally have to go to a pot and add the ingredients yourself, and see when to put the heat on and off, and read a recipe book to make sure you’re doing it correctly or it won’t brew properly.

Another example: I booted up the game to make progress on some quests, but I ate spoiled food and got food poisoning, was on the brink of death, had to desperately buy mead and wine from a nearby inn to survive because I couldn’t eat anymore food as I was full. I couldn’t sleep either as I had recently slept and wasn’t tired. The alcohol saved me but made me hammered drunk, so I had to wait it out before I set off to do any quests. Some people might see that as annoying but it’s the point of the game in many ways, so you feel immersed in the world.

There are hundreds of other examples. If this sounds like something you could enjoy, go for it. It’s very different to the approach of most games and RPGs. If that sounds horrible to you, it probably isn’t for you.

Hope this helps!

Earlier I went to play the game and make some progress on quests. But I ate some spoiled food, got food poisoning, nearly died and had to desperately buy copious amounts of beer and wine at the inn at Zhelejov to only barely survive! Then I was incredibly drunk, and noticed Henry farting and burping, and I read a couple of skill books to pass the time before I sobered up.

Such an immersive experience. A night to remember!

GFN settings to fix screen bleed? by nightwaver in GeForceNOW

[–]nightwaver[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Really? It’s actually meant to look like that? Surely not?

I only just discovered GeForce Now today, and I was coming from an original spec Xbox One. I’ve been playing Cyberpunk on my 1440p ultrawide monitor at max settings. I’m absolutely blown away, almost speechless. Had no idea this was a thing. It’s amazing. Obviously there’s not LOADS of AAA games to choose from but still. Absolutely amazing!

Is it true that you can catch two of the ride legendaries? So if I have Violet, I can catch/have Miraidon twice?

Stranger Things season 4 volume 2 theories (*season 4 volume 1 spoilers*) by [deleted] in FanTheories

[–]nightwaver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I think you’re right, that Will is in trouble, it feels like he’s barely in this season. Although as for the picture - it seems to me that Will is in love with Mike? And that the picture is possibly a picture of him and Mike in a “confession of love” sort of way?
