The Social Gathering / Gaming Thread [A place to organize meet-ups]

I've come down with a cold or flu/covid this morning although right now my symptoms make it feel more like a cold, hopefully I don't get worse. Was up for a game of something this weekend but not feeling like this. This is 3rd cold/flu/covid bug I've had in a year :(
 
Dont worry Tykey, just focus on getting well :)

i was hoping to get on during week but some stuff has gotten in the way. might be on tomorrow or sat.
but dont think im going to be well monday night so will see how i feel closer to the time..

Thanks! I'm just going into the stuffy/congested nose phase (is that TMI?). What irks me a bit is that all 3 of the bugs i've had these last 12 months, they've all been passed on to me by people visiting me; I haven't gone out into crowds of people some of whom might have a bug etc, i've got ill through people who have come into my home, ok at the time they've not known they had a bug, but iirc they'd all only a day or 2 before been somewhere where they'd known someone there had cold/covid etc. 2 of the bugs were given to me by my brother.

Started Dungeons of Eternity last night. Wife found it a bit complicated, but then the tutorial does throw a lot at you if you’re not a seasoned gamer. Would’ve been better if we could have done the tutorial dungeon (which was still surprisingly hard imo) together, but looks like she’s been able to complete the tutorial without doing the dungeon!

Another one we can get of you ‘orrible lot to join us on tho.

Sorry i know this is off topic - last post on this, promise. In all seriousness I think there's a lack of awareness, dare I say it common sense, when it comes to bugs like the flu & covid. I'm really rough today it's definitely not just a cold, and no way am I going out anywhere where I could infect others and I won't be accepting visitors either as I don't want to infect them. I need to have regular contact with my 76 year old mother but can't now, a flu/covid could kill someone of that age. I wish people (like my brother) would use common sense when it comes to spreading bugs.

Best tip I can give for DoE is throw weapons. I like using a shield as well as it protects me a lot, but then just lots of throwing.
 
I decided to play doe the other week on my own
Recommended difficulty
I had 2 different swords (not one throwable) and a repeating ballista

How I managed to complete it I do not know!!
I was nearly dead on several occasions but managed to revive myself by hitting them

Massive spiders didn't help pinning me to the spot
And I hate spiders!!

DOE defo feels like a standing game. i had troubles reaching the weapons when i sat down playing, have to check setting, i must not have it set right

I'm still flu'd up so won't be playing tonight, should be ok for next weekend if someone wants a game of something like golf etc, i've bought breachers too (yet to play it) so could play that, I also have Onward, or might buy DoE if that's what's recommended.
 
I'll be around this evening. Who else is looking likely to make it? Perhaps try something different?

Something getting me moving would probably be good for me, even if sore!

I'll be around. Not been that well this weekend but think I can handle a session. To be honest I find golf the most fun, but happy to try something else. Really depends on how many of us there are.
