Just came back from my holiday in Blackpool. Just spent the weekend there, it was good. The Pleasure Beach is always a great time, especially since they finally finished their refurbishment of the water ride Valhalla so got to go on that twice and get absolutely soaked. Also went into the Blackpool Tower for the first time, that was fun, you get a great view. And saw a fireworks display last night. Pretty good. Just a shame that so much of Blackpool just looks run down. Even the street right behind the big Promenade has lots of buildings that look like they need severe maintenance, if not need to be torn down entirely.
First world problem time: Iām looking forward to Persona 3 Reload, as Iāve posted about it before. I want to buy the special edition of the game. Special edition has been available and already sold out in places like Japan and the USA. In the UK though, theyāve still yet to list the thing anywhere and no news about when it might be listed, or if it will be exclusive to one retailer. (I believe it has been exclusive to Amazon in some places.) The UK chain GAME tends to often get exclusivity to sell special editions of video game in the UK, so might wind up there. Just annoying really, Iām checking several websites a few times a day for something that is likely to sell out quickly and I just donāt want to miss out. And the game comes out in 4 and a half months so no idea how this nonsense will last.
Been feeling really good recently. Work has been great, breaking alot of revenue records and been getting praise from the higher ups which is motivating. In return Iāve been motivating my team to reduce waste and to have daily revenue goals. Things are looking good and Iāve been told I have a promising future if I keep up the work.
In other work related news, we have a VIP event this Friday which I am heading the bartending side of it. Iāll be dressed in more formal clothing for it which I will be providing pictures of in the forum gallery. Some Swangthe(not so)ugly eye candy for everyone soon enough.
Lastly. Vacation next week. Iām super excited for it and have a few things I wanna bring back with me after the week is through. Iāll be posting pictures gradually throughout the week.
Took an L today. Before you read this - I didnāt get the memo that IOI shut down the location carryover and that itās only the progress thatās getting transferred.
So what happened is - I downloaded Hitman 2 with all the DLC content that I had on Steam, linked it to the IOI account, commenced the carryover to the Hitman 3/World of Assassination on Epic in hopes of getting Bank and Haven. Not only did I not get the locations, I also effectively wiped out all of my 300-hour progress on H3. All maxed out locations, 80 lvl Freelancer Mastery, all EArcades, plenty of unlocks from escalations and FCs, 5 ETs completed with SA - all gone
The moral of the story is to read the manual first
@Swangtheugly I had zero progress on that H2 account I just wanted to get the locations but as turned out it hasnāt been possible since the WoA release, so Iām gonna have to buy the Access Pass for H3 for the missing content. Tbh Iām not too worried or mad, totally my mistake, and everything Iāve lost I will unlock again eventually.
Big Yikes, I think thatās the one reason a lot of people waited a year for HITMAN 3 to avoid this particular thing. If you choose a platform itās best to commit to it. In this case you thought you could merge your locations but disregarded you canāt merge with pre existing progress, but you completely wiped H3 progress in favor for your H2 progress which sucks.
Hopefully you had exclusive limited unlocks like the ICA Coin and Black Winter Suit to at least make it more worth while kinda. And hopefully you have all the ET Suits too.
Had my first proper driving lesson today.
By nature Iām too demanding to myself even if I understand that itās only the beginning, but I always think that I should do better.
Anyway, Iām glad Iāve taken it, and rode couple of circles around the real block with real traffic and so on.
Instructor said that I performed fantastically well as for the first time ever behind the wheel, though Iām not too happy about it. I know the more I ride the better it will be and strictly speaking Iām quite satisfied of how I did.
At least everybody is alive and all cars are unharmed
I think it does? Not my reason though, since every person in their right mind knows that all the good people are on HMF. But there are some games/mods in development which are primarily discussed on Discord, plus one series Iām looking for some help with and am hoping to find it there, so those are basically my reasons.
Itās just full of people posting rule breaking stuff and constant sexual remarks about everything itās just sad in there and Iām a Radiohead fan!
Joined it for the first time this week from someone elseās invitation and itās confusing. It seems hard to have an actual conversation in there because thereās so many people
I am also not actively reading there because of the large amount. However I am one of the voluntary mods there so if someone sees something bad just tag us. Sadly I often see in the posting history of people that they could have been reported much earlier. So I can see what you people talk about.
