    Who in particular did it for you? Was it Rex Splode? It was Rex Splode, wasn't it?

    There's 2 main ones. I don't think Cecil's voice matches the character at all and then Steven Yeun as Invincible sounds emotionless and bored for the majority of his lines until he has to yell something.

    Been catching up with X-Men 97 and I'm mostly enjoying it. The animation and voice acting are still a bit iffy to me but the stories have been top notch. Only issue there I really have is due to how closely they are adapting the comics I already know all of the twists 😆

    Went a bit nuts this evening filling in some gaps in my DC events and also picking up all the rarer JSA omnis but I'm looking forward to reading them all. I did try the Dark Nights event previously but I think I understand it better now, plus apparently it's so much better with the addition of the tie ins and the omnis include all of those.

    I saw the series has been released in all sorts of ways. I just grabbed what i saw was avalible at the time. I really just want to read it, not too interested in extra stuff or fancy hardbacks. The Ultimate Collection volumes have a lot of extra stuff like concept art and writer interviews at the back of them but the number of volumes is just going to take up space on my bookshelf. Ended up getting the compendiums since they were so compact compaired ot the other releases, saves me some space.

    That's basically my thinking as well and I would have been happy with the compendiums but I'm a stickler for my shelves looking nice and books being different heights annoys me 🤣

    I still need to upgrade my Invincibles books to hardbacks to go with the rest of my collection. Only problem has been that they keep being released in odd sizes. There's a pretty established size for omnibus and deluxe editions but the Invincible hardbacks are nearly all too big or too small. Only ones that fit the size I want are the Ultimate Collections and there are quite a few of those.

    I just can't understand why AEW decided to show the footage of CM Punk and Jack Perry. No matter what it showed it just makes Tony Khan look pretty and pathetic. We all know CM Punk is a dick and all the video did was show what we'd already been told. There was no big revelation that made him seem worse.

    Got myself a new keyboard and mouse to go with the PC upgrade. Went with the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro for the mouse as I wanted something with the same ergo shape as my MX Master mouse but a bit better for gaming and then the Asus Azoth keyboard which is my first proper mechanical keyboard. For years I held off buying one, not liking the sound but I kind of love it already. I am going to have to get used a smaller keyboard again though. Might miss my numpad with Excel for work!

    Have you ever played the first 2 games, @Happenstance? Just wondering how they play in comparison to the newer titles. I can't imagine they have aged well, especially the original game.

    I've tried a few times but never managed to get too far. The story parts and characters look interesting but I couldnt get on with the older dungeon mechanics or first person view when going through them. I think I watched a video explaining the lore from them that continues into the newer titles though. Actually explains things like the blue butterfly that appears in all the games.

    I think my order for the Persona games would go 4, 5 then 3. The murder mystery aspect of 4 along with the characters just really struck a chord with me.

    Did you remember any of the links between 4 and 3 when you were playing this? Like how in 4 you visit Gekkoukan High, meet some of the teachers along with Chihiro and visit the night club.

    Wanted something a bit more substantial to test with so decided to give Starfield another try. I didn't really put a lot of time into it the first attempt and on paper it should be a game that's right up my alley so we'll see how it goes. If anything it'll be a good stress test.

    Fractal Design Focus 2 (this was one of the reasons I went with this pre build as it had a rear exhaust fan and the other didn't)

     

    ...and of course it didn't come with an exhaust fan. Time to get onto customer service and see if I can get them to send me a free one I can fit myself.

    Congrats! I always dread doing larger upgrades, haha. Next time I'll have to upgrade my CPU, which means new motherboard, possibly new RAM, and why not just add a GPU as well.

    Hope you enjoy the new build! What did you end up buying?

    Ryzen 5 7600x (was tempted to go with a Ryzen 7 but as this will be mostly for gaming and no CPU intensive work I decided to save some money)

    RTX 4070 ti Super

    32gb ram

    Corsair iCUE H100x Elite (first time trying an aio)
