Morning all.
Work actually had me working yesterday afternoon. An aggression that will not be tolerated.
Gamesblog: Skyrim! I finally went a sorted the dragon near Whiterun. Level 46, and hadn't done it yet... mainly because I didn't know how my Mage-build would do against the flying reptiles. Turns out "quite well", thankfully. Now I'm not so worried should I fall over one.
TVblog: Once Upon a Time in Iraq, episode 2. A very powerful and uncomfortable series.
OTTM: RLM's top-five-TNG-episodes. They only made it through three in an hour.

Amipal,
What works best with a dragon when you are a mage? I suppose you can use the magic which has the element the dragon is weak to?
I'm listening to the soothing Skyrim soundtrack as I type. It's a wonderful set of tunes.

Good morning, fine denizens of the box. amipal doing actual work? Sheesh.. TV? No. Games?: No. Drinks & Pizza? Maybe. Blowing fag smoke at my noisy neighbour's open kitchen window? Hell yeah. OTTM: Cat woke me up at 6.15am by meowing constantly in my lughole, the fuzzy little shit. It didn't want anything. Probably was concerned that I didn't get up at 6am. Hmmnn.

Morning from Glasgow Central en-route to work. Fairly busy.
Games. No Fillums. Greyhound. Deary me. Fuck being in the North Atlantic on a war.boat.
Got the new docs phoning for a consultation between 10 and 11. Hopefully find a quiet spot in work so no-one hears the sobbing.

Morning.
We are now living "The Good Life", we harvested a whole pound of small potatoes, along with our rocket, spring onions and currently growing tomatoes we should be self sufficient*.
*Just need a diary cow, some pigs, chickens and various steak producing cows and we're good.

Diary cows are the best. I've always said it.

Games
Fortnite Duos - I got 3 revives in a game, plus 1 for Shenguin. That is to say I needed reviving 3 times in one game. I was not playing particularly aggressively or drunkenly. Just really really badly. After that game I did not do so badly in the rest of the games. Not great though.

I am considering purchasing Horizon Zero Dawn, is it straight up action packed? Or do I need to dick about with potions and mending weapons like Witcher 3?

tenthenemyI'm currently watching that Ultimate Mage Build video from yesterday. He isn't me - he doesn't umm and ahh throughout his video, says "science experiment", doesn't spell "armour" correctly despite being a Brit, leans heavily on "Spiffco" images, and also uses the most hated term in the world ("swap OUT"). Oh, and his Mage-build is cheesy as hell.

It's a wonderful set of tunes. Something with a high damage-per-second mostly. I've only encountered the one so far, so I'm by no means an anti-dragon-mage-expert at this point in time. But chain lightning seemed to do okay.

Fillums. Greyhound. Deary me. Fuck being in the North Atlantic on a war.boat. Or any ship. Doubly so on the Arctic convoys. I want to see that film. I keep hearing great things about it.

Takes a little bit to get going, but once you are in, it's tremendous. There is crafting, but it's not really a big deal if you don't want it to be. Iirc you collect parts from defeated enemies and you can upgrade weapons etc, but it's v light on the RPG elements compared to Witcher etc. Has a great story for a game, plus Cedric from The Wire is in it.

Morning all, its everyones favourite French tickler salesman, ombudsman to the stars, raconteur extraordinaire, Terry Dankyl!
Horizon Zero Dawn is very pretty but I found it painfully dull and the combat is absolutely terrible. Imagine being charged at by a giant dakylosaur intent on squashing you while all you have is a bow and arrow. Its just constantly trying to aim at something before it runs you over. 4 stars.
Fall guys - top banana.
