    You don't need to tell me that. I wanted 'The Finger Inn' but wasn't appropriate apparently. Something to do with the kids asking the question.

    We're in the process of turning the garage into a bar & ordered a bar before anything else was ready!

    I'm sorry, but that pun is terrible. No need for the Inn.

    Like @Van De Squid I enjoy the side quests.
    There do seem to be some gremlins in KC tho...I started the "courting" quest and chatted up the Miller's niece. Got to the instruction to go back in a couple of days to ask her out. Less than 24 hours of elapsed game time later I'm told I've stood her up and shes seething.....
    On second thoughts....maybe that is just super realistic.....?

    Managed to earn 100 groschen from Hans Capon for bagging 3 hares in the hunt quest.
    I've just nicked a better bow from a dead cuman but I need much better stats....

    I saw a video on youtube telling you to stick something tiny to your tv right over the crosshair. Then when you get the bow out you will have the exact center of the screen so you know where the arrow will go. 
    I'm ashamed to say I tried it. Me and my 2mm blue tack smashed the archery quests. 
    How the hell do you lock pick?! I probably play my PS4 for an hour most nights (before coronavirus) and I remember spending two entire sessions feckin around with virtual padlocks. If the missus found out, she'd leave me. I'd rather admit to watching Babestation!

    Really interesting conversation on Red Dead Redemption 2. I was well bought into the hype when it came out and almost bought it full price. Decided against it then, but have been waiting to get it since. After reading this, I'm thinking I might not bother. I don't have much time to dedicate to a long game unless it's going to be great. And it doesn't sound good enough.
    I've just finished Assassin's Creed Origins and loved it. Even though I spent 100 hours on it over a long period, it was nearly always brilliant. I didn't think it could get better after the London one, but it did. My kids got my Odyssey already too, so that one is waiting for me.
    I also love Far Cry 3, 4 and Primal, so a bit Ubisoft crazy. Mass Effect trilogy also one of my recent faves. Played most the GTAs since Liberty City too and always great.
    Let me know any recommendations if you also rate these games. I was gonna give Outer Wilds a go before getting stuck into AC Odyssey. Been playing Fallen Order with kids too and enjoying it.
    I've always wanted to play Last of Us, but can't on Xbox.

    I'm just a few hours into kingdom come so a way to go. RPG style is my thing - did AC origins earlier this year and catching up on far cry series also during lockdown. 
    Main grumbles so far with KC are...
    - why does it play the intro story on loading every time.....takes ages
    - the side quests are beginning to pile up and you don't seem to be able to choose when to pause the main storyline and finish one or two off.
    That said, enjoying the realism, but it does make the action seem slow on occasion.  I keep forgetting to bathe or wash and then nobody will talk to me as I stink. Such realism.....?

    My major gripe with Kingdom Come is the lock picking. Worst attempt at lock picking in a game. I reckon I could learn to lock pick for real quicker. 
    I can't remember how I approached side quests. I'm not much one for side questing. I always think people should fetch it themselves. I don't know why RPG games thought there's a secret courier in all of us. At least Death Stranding didn't try to disguise it! 
    I do love the combat though. You certainly don't feel overpowered, do you!?

    Syndicate is awesome. If you know London reasonably well, even more fun.

    I love it. It's my secret game though because I think it's really geeky. I think most RPG games are geeky aren't they. But I think it might be my favourite genre. 
    Kingdom Come was terrible on release. Its had so many patches! I really hope it gets more sequels and they produce more medieval RPG's set in real conflicts

    Yep. After watching assassins creed valhalla trailer I decided to catch up on the series and brought Unity, Syndicate, Origins & Odyssey off eBay. Haven't played them since Rouge in 2014. And despite Unity being considered the worse in the series I'm enjoying it & wondering why it's took me so long to play them! Without a doubt it's my favourite gaming series. Great history lesson too!

    I'm not keen on the whole magic thing either. What about Kingdom Come Deliverance? At first it was a buggy mess, but I bought the royal edition which solved most of it. For such a small unknown development team I think they made a great game. If you like the medieval era.

    Why did King Arthur sign up for so many zoom meetings?
    Because he likes to be on cam a lot.

    Got bored with nothing to do on weekends so I bought a 2.700m door and pulled the back of the house down.
