If we get a new one, that can integrate and unify the old ones...

@Deebs if it makes you feel better, I was just playing Halo, died about 20 times at the same bit and then got past it, then died to a grunt hiding with a nade out.

Fucks sake.

I might abandon Halo 1 at this rate and just go to the games I haven't already completed.

ODST maybe.

Back to the office for the first time today, for a change of scenery. The amount of selfish wankers on the bus with no masks still. Really hoping for tfl to turn up and fine some of them.

They're bringing in a 50 quid fine for that here. No idea how they'll enforce it though

Playing a lot of Forge of Empires lately

Anyway, a new player joined my neighborhood (I'm playing on a US server so its all US spelling from here on in)
One of them has chosen a distinctly British noun for his player name

Dang caught me out
No, I've been rather boring unfortunately
Its the name of a pianist
Anyway, you know me. I would have at least capitalised the W in wanker

That player should be permabanned for that alone
Wanker fine
But not capitalising!
Banned for crimes against OCD

Isn't that one of those pay to win games?

I do like the concept but it's always like pay us £10 to insta build this castle to insta win.

No.
Every single element of the game can be attained totally free

There is a premium currency (diamonds) that massively speeds up progression but you do not need to pay a dime to enjoy the full features

A friend of mine is as tight as they get. He's massively advanced and hasn't paid for a thing. Its all about patience. Thats what I love about FoE. Marathon not a sprint. Its actually quite zen

Well, that's pretty obscure (the penis).... and I am the same.... wanker is spelt Wanker in any proper noun!

I have had a massive OCD overload regarding pastel shading in Excel spreadsheets the last 2 weeks... It's a long story and one of those 'you had to be there' things :mad:

But that's what pay-to-win is. If you can chuck money at the game and get actual tangible benefits (rather than just skins or other cosmetic shite), then it's pay-to-win.

Is is the fact they are using colours or the fact they are specifically pastel that is triggering you? 🤔

Well ok, if you're being technical yes.
But you genuinely don't need to buy anything to enjoy the game. That was my point

Practically every game in Google Play has "in-app purchases"
If they don't then they're riddled with ads - unless you pay for an ad-free experience

Colour indications based up conditional formatting can add visual clarity and pastel can be as clear as any other palette choice. As long as they are used in moderation I have no problem with it.

But as far as the smallest hill you'd die on go I've encountered worse. 😄

Not that I am a fan of these sort of games but they are totally playable for free.

They make their money from people that are impatient.
