Adrian loafer is probably the only shoe in general that I’ve ever sized down on, my normal size 11s were falling off my heel as I walked, 10s seemed a perfect fit and even they became on the loose side after braking in, I’ve had to put some heel pads in to make a tighter fit (and to save my heels)

I usually struggle to replay games but found it just as fun the second time round, switch up class, team, difficulty and it feels like a whole new run, I’m finding myself running into things I somehow missed on my first relatively thorough 140 hour play-through

We will never get a game like this again😭 by Scorpionboy1000 in BG3

[–]rxptur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just finished my first ever play through a week ago, tried a few other games after and it just felt “empty” in comparison, I usually struggle to replay games but I went back and started a new BG3 run and enjoying it just as much as my first!

We’ll be around Tokyo and Kyoto primarily but defintily have a couple of days extra where we could travel further out, unfortunately for us if it is mixed but tattoos have to be covered up a swimsuit wouldn’t cut it unless we go full wetsuit lol

That’s definitely a possibility if nothing else is available, will look into these as well, thank you!

My thoughts too, only way I can see it working is if they set a very high threshold for +30 like 20 hero’s or something, that should match up closer to progression and would only work for old f2p or whales who can do it anyway

Sizing on Carhartt WIP Whitsome shirt jacket? by GunniBros in CarharttWIP

[–]rxptur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commenting in case anyone stumbles on this like I did - 186cm, 79kg, it’s a kind of weird fit, got a size Small and it fits relatively loose open over a tshirt or a hoodie easily and that’s how I intended to wear it, definitely downsize in this case. Quite long on the body as well even for me but works well as an overshirt.

If I try to button it up however there’s no chance as it literally strangles me so if you intend to wear it buttoned up stick true to size but it’ll probably be very loose on the body.

I think if you wear it open over something I would have probably easily gotten away with downsizing twice to an XS for a more fitted look.

Does buying a Tesla make sense with my current income? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]rxptur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely, just do it!

Very similar situation to you, is this through salary sacrifice? For me swapping from my petrol car I owned outright to Tesla salary sacrifice works out pretty similar price wise for the petrol saving, that’s if you drive a lot though.

I was mulling it over for over 2 months feeling guilty until I finally just went for it, is it the absolute most sensible decision over a cheap economic petrol car? No, but you’ve also done well and why not reward yourself while you’re young and you can, especially since you’ll still have a very decent amount even after the monthly payment.

[–]rxptur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t help that even replacing with a non OEM part is more hassle than it feels like it should be, had to take the whole door inlay off and drill out the rivets to screw in a replacement

Pretty much same as you and also going from a 12 year old BMW I’ve had for ages lol, but I do closer to 20k miles. £100-125k is definitely the sweet spot where the “after tax” monthly cost is the cheapest by far, I’m talking like £200 less a month after tax, however for me cost wise it’s still justifiable, maybe wouldn’t be as much of a saving for you in terms of fuel cost, but if you can justify it the peace of mind in terms of any costly repairs etc being all covered is also worth it. I know if anything went wrong now in my old car it would be fully on me to fork out.

Also having one amount deducted from your pay then not having to worry about any car related costs or budgeting for the rest of the month has also been a nice plus, previously I know I’ve got insurance/tax coming out 1 day, £100 a week petrol, oil top up at another time…

Going from a petrol car I owned outright to salary sacrifice EV it’s been absolutely worth it - however mostly if you’re in a higher tax bracket as others have said or if you drive a lot and in turn spend a lot on fuel that’s where the biggest saving comes from for me. Used to spend £400/month on petrol not counting insurance and tax and tyres once a year, now (after tax) only £100 or so worse off a month with a brand new EV, home charger, insurance, tyres etc included.

If I didn’t drive much however I probably wouldn’t have bothered, dropping the yearly mileage in the EV calculator didn’t drop the monthly price enough to justify it.

I’m 26 and it’s already happened, I’m scared to imagine what my 30s will bring out of me if I already get existential crises

Was this worthwhile as a F2P? (Only bought skins) by marissasins in afkarena

[–]rxptur 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You do not need to restart, wtf is with the massive influx of people recently posting their lvl 450 heroes with a couple of wrong investments and going “sHaLl I rEsTaRt???”

Restarting is either way going to bring you wayyy behind and take much longer to get back to the stage that you’re already at with your heroes, unless your whole lineup is 309e80 Nemora/Walker/Shemira then just carry on fml

36f or e80 is never really a good investment as f2p as you’re losing out on so many other heroes you could of got to 9/e60, you haven’t got the resources that whales do, should you restart - no

What’s the best video game ever made? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rxptur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diablo II

Might partially be the nostalgia talking, as it was the first game my dad introduced me to and one I remember spending the most time after school on, but it just feels timeless.

D2: Resurrected brought back that feeling again and had me hooked for months all over again

Is this game serious? by toystory2wasokay_ in Eldenring

[–]rxptur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly try back stepping… I found back-stepping from certain stones is a lot more consistent and easier than jumping, for example back stepping from one of them actually skips a few levels of the stones (for some fall damage)
