How's it going everyone?

I'm on day two of a migraine, skipping my day festival in leui of painkillers and chill TV watching/game playing.

Who's having a roast today then?

Who’s having a roast today then?

I might get thrown off this instance but... I haven't had a roast dinner in ages, possibly since Christmas.

I'll be cooking sausage, chorizo and lentils later.

Last day of sitting on my arse, eating and drinking too much, before getting back into a healthy regimen.

Want to try and finish Subnautica today. I had been avoiding it for ever but picked it up for 8 quid in the Steam sale and can’t stop playing it.

A phenomenal game in depth and scale - got the double cartridge on the switch. Couldn't finish the below zero game, navigation is hard towards the end. Incredible work from indie developers.

Made some more progress this afternoon and have started construction of the Neptune rocket.

Been distracted by Laphroaig 10 now though.

How is it on Switch? I have it on PS5 and was thinking of getting it for my lite, playing on the go. I thought it might be a game that would suffer in the port. Saying that I still can't believe No Mans Sky got squeezed onto the Switch!

As usual it's absolutely dependent on WHO ports it (some things like Doom '16 or Wolfenstein New Colossus look great (barring a few little reductions in gloss), but other fairly simple games get butchered at the optimisation stage. Devolver Digital always do good ports to switch.

I never played the pc version but Subnautica is easily one of the best looking games on switch, they did good work I think.

Sorry to hear your laid up, migraines suck. Hope you feel better soon!

What TV/games are you enjoying to make the best of it?

I'm on a work shift, so I'm sitting in a hotel after a day of work. I've watched an episode of Sweet Tooth (Season 2) and now I'm trying to finish my review of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny for my blog.

I hope your migraine passes soon.

Just got back from camping and got a roast booked down the local!

Hope your migraine eases!
