25. recap (pacer) good evening soot

I played this until I got to the point where I leveled up, and could not for the life of me work out what key to hit to open the character menu to level up. After faffing around for a while I gave up and will leave it until I decide to actually play the game in its entirety.

I note also that the lockpicking seems far more complicated than in the original game. I loved the lockpicking mini game in the original. It was far more intuitive.

Otherwise, the remaster is pretty nice and absolutely true to the original game, where a juvenile scavenger can take you out in two blows as you run down the hill towards the Old Camp.

Yes, manxie!

Thanks Marian!

Good morning everyone.

Nothing exciting here, except that I loaded up No Man's Sky on my new computer and immediately got zapped because I couldn't work out the controls in time!

No bears here at the moment. We do have a cougar roaming about ten miles away, which makes me glad I have a fence. While a cougar could jump over it, they would be more likely to go after a softer target.

If you're laughing, Rog, that's all that matters.

I didn't get this one, myself. Let's see if you can. (It makes perfect sense once you know the answer.)

I started with four.
When I cut one off, three fell to the floor, so now I have five.

You are very welcome, safc! Thanks so much for letting us know that this helped. Enjoy the game!

A friend sends me really cool music videos on Saturday nights sometimes as we both love jazz and blues. This one just MADE my Saturday night last night. Steve Winwood on the B3 Hammond organ and Santana at the 2004 Montreux Jazz Festival... a cover of the 1970 anti-war song, "Why Can't We Live Together."

Thank You Marian yes I did ...only thing is .......it (like everything else) happens only once a Year

Thanks Orion for the Mac discounts.

Gerry

You are most welcome.

I think you will find that temporarily disabling the Bitdefender shield is not all that complicated (if indeed that is all that is required here for the current problem).

On our Windows 11 computer, we only have Windows Defender installed as an antivirus and everything has been fine so far. But we also know what not to click on.

Always good to see you here, Susan. Hopefully things will be sorted out very soon. There's usually a learning curve/growing pains of some sort when using a new OS.

Thanks Marian!

Good to know, Ggoran72! Have fun!
