I'm loving Gamepass (I don't have an Xbox) but it is weirdly inconsistent in letting me download stuff and sometimes even play it. Also, the Outer Wilds does not seem to be on the PC version of Game Pass, which is a bummer. But I can't complain.

I'm a little old for this but I'm not complaining: Santa got me a PS4. ID is rockknowsnofear. I've been added to the community already, but I thought I'd post here. I'm a dad gamer and so am basically available at mum/dad times and for mum/dad durations.

rockknowsnofear. Thanks!

Awesome! Mech, please add me to that community. I will look up the clan. I am very new to PS4 stuff.

I'm in the same boat and am planning to do the same thing, just level up from scratch. Any more experienced Thumbs have any ideas on that? Am I being silly and should I just take the level-40 upgrade?

I look forward to hearing what more knowledgeable Thumbs think. I have an HD 7870 screaming to be replaced (hopefully soon), but I'm not buying a new monitor soon so I really just need the best card I can get for 1080p gaming.

I like Private Internet Access. It has China, though I haven't connected there myself. I use it for Ireland and it works well.

I'm excited about Banner Saga 2: Saga Harder (yes, all sequels should be named this way) but I unfortunately won't play it for a while I think. Work is ramping up and I have Stellaris at home. Still, I'd love to put an episode together on the game for History Respawned.

Forgive me for basically double posting, but I didn't want people on this thread who might not read the Plug Your Shit thread to know about the podcast I mentioned here a couple of weeks back: Episode One came out two weeks ago, the audio from Bob's interview on Red Dead Redemption. Episode Two, out tomorrow, is more of a discussion cast between myself and Bob. Episode Three, in two weeks, will be the audio from our latest episode, on Far Cry Primal. We'll be releasing episodes every two weeks and gradually going through the back catalogue of our video episodes. You can find us on Soundcloud at https://soundcloud.c...istoryrespawned and iTunes at https://itunes.apple...t=2&i=364442062 and on our own website at http://www.historyre...ned.com/?cat=86

Hi guys, I've mentioned our video series History Respawned here before (http://www.youtube.com/historyrespawned), but I wanted to drop in and let everyone know we now have a podcast! Episode One came out two weeks ago, the audio from Bob's interview on Red Dead Redemption. Episode Two, out tomorrow, is more of a discussion cast between myself and Bob. Episode Three, in two weeks, will be the audio from our latest episode, on Far Cry Primal. We'll be releasing episodes every two weeks and gradually going through the back catalogue of our video episodes. You can find us on Soundcloud at https://soundcloud.com/historyrespawned and iTunes at https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/history-respawned-podcast/id1091357872?mt=2&i=364442062 and on our own website at http://www.historyrespawned.com/?cat=86 Hopefully some Thumbs will find the podcast interesting!

Will do! I'll post it in the Plug Your Shit thread when iTunes confirms the feed is open. We haven't applied yet so it might be a while.

Apologies for being shameless, but we're launching our new podcast, based on our video series "History Respawned," in a few days. It's eventually going to be two a month we think, with one episode featuring us talking about specific ideas and the other being a podcast version of the video episode for that month. The first few episodes will likely be converted from video episodes. Episode 1, for example will be our episode on Red Dead Redemption: Anyway. May not be your cup of tea or you may prefer to watch the videos, but that is a thing that is happening. We're going to call it The History Respawned Podcast, I think. It may just be listed on iTunes as History Respawned.

There's also the fact, frankly, that I can get through about three games of HOTS (give or take) in the time it would take me to get through one game of DOTA. That's something that didn't matter to me too much a couple of years ago but it's huge now.

Played my first couple of games in a WHILE tonight. Forgot how much fun this game is. As tradition dictated, I loaded up Dota, got scared and played Heroes instead. It was pretty great.

Looking forward to having a look at this on the free weekend. Half thinking about it for an episode of History Respawned, though it would take some thinking. Looks like a fun alternate history.
