    What videogames are you playing in 2025?

    Plus a lot of times "hard" just means "repetitive". Like a game with no or limited saving. It's exactly the same as the same game with saving, except now you have to replay the beginning a bunch of times. It's not hard, it's just long (insert your own joke here).

    As for W, It really does make a sound like two "u"s except for the absence of a slight waver. Imagine taking a word with a 'w' in it, such as 'word' 'news' 'west' or 'knew' with 'uu'. It's more or less the same. Or imagine replacing the 'u' in 'queen' with 'w'. It still works

    D&D General I finally like non-Tolkien species for PCs

    This is also how I feel that undead (and lovecraftian monsters) should be played in movies to make them actually frightening. The past is terrible.

    Sorry. I'm just spitballing ideas. In any case, an increasing number of places are taking it, even if not necessarily tesco. I could cut out mastercard where I can and only deal with them where I need to. In the long run though, I do still think I need to look into getting a different bank...
