I’m in the same boat. The water based upkeep mechanic seems punishing, especially for time starved / more casual gamers.

I do think it’s very on theme with the game, I hope that they’ll tweak it over time - something interesting could be adding a way for more active players to contribute surplus water to a shared supply.

If they manage to tidy the game up and fix some of the glaring issues I’d likely still give it a try even with the water “feature”.

Does the mechanic turn you off the game completely?

Nice timing indeed. I’ve read a few review aggregators for the remake and it appears that it’s better in every way than the original, so I’m sure you guys will enjoy it.

This is such an interesting remake, I remember playing this when it came out more than 10 years ago, I didn’t think it was anything special then.

From what I can see it sold more than 1 million copies back then though, interested to see how well the remake is received and how popular it is.

I picked up and finished Nodebuster this week. It’s a pretty chilled out incremental improvement style game that almost becomes idle closer to the end.

I’ve also been trying to get some games of Spectre Divide (new f2p tactical FPS game) in this week too.

I’ve recently started using tmux when starting a new SSH session to try to build the habit.

git push origin HEAD is a slightly shorter way of doing the same thing, even though you have an alias anyway lol

What’s everyone opinion on protests like this? Imo this gets a decent message out there with pretty minimal impact to anything other than the businesses managing and utilising the port as well as emergency services.

Awesome! Do you work in graphic design or is it a hobby of yours?

Sounds like they’re going to look great.

Classic snack that. Might have to pick up some saos!

I actually have been digging the Vegemite shapes that are out at the moment, is there something wrong with me?

I love my Akiri Line-Slinger + Silas-Ren deck. It’s not the best in terms of win rate but it’s always fun to play as both the commanders are so cheap to cast.

I’m not sure about power levels, but I’ve ordered the Riders of Rohan and the Elven Council decks. I really love the theme for both of these and am excited to see how they play out of the box and with some potential tweaks from the set booster box I’ve grabbed.

Do you have plans to pick one of them up?

Interesting, apparently I’m running version 0.0.33, perhaps it’s a difference there?

I’m not sure if you mean something else but I’m fairly certain the bookmark icon on a post will allow you to save a post and view it later.

(Sorry for the rushed screenshot, hopefully you get the idea though)

Hey you guys are getting more than the Newcastle community!

It’s sunny and around 20 here in Newy, though the wind is a little chilly today, looks like the weekend will be similar too.

Most of my recent weekends have been spent mentally recovering from the work week by playing the new Zelda game. I’m going to a release event for a new Magic the Gathering set tonight though.

What’s on your radar?

Maybe if I don’t buy this year the prices will go up and the rates will drop? I can do my part.

I’ve found it can be a little resource intensive - though I only used it for a couple of projects and haven’t tried it again!

Have you left Reddit behind? Just realised you said you were on there for about 10 years.

I recently deleted my account, I never posted or commented much over there though, so I wasn’t attached to the account.
