I can't wait to play Outer Worlds 2. I love the first game so much and the graphics were awesome. I'm very excited to immerse myself in the Outer Worlds quirky world again. I love the steampunk look of the game and I think it will live up to the hype. I can't wait to get to grips with the dark comedy in the game and while it doesn't sound like it will put the Outer Worlds take on capitalism as you are looking into the solar system being destroyed, I'm sure it will be there in some form or another.

To relax, learn about farming and find the best way to make money. I also like the challenge of finding all the collectables.

The Ancient Future Trilogy, The Celestial Triad and the Triad of Being Trilogy by Traci Harding. These 3 trilogy's follow on from one another, with exception that the Triad of Being Trilogy is set further along in the timeline than the other two. These books aren't a quick read so they are perfect for a cold winter day/night in front of the fire or rugged up on the sofa. You will get so invested in the books you won't want to put them down so I recommend buying all the books in one of the trilogy's at a time so you don't have to wait.

For me this is an easy one. My favourite author is an Australian author by the name of Traci Harding. Every single one of her books is enjoyable and a joy to read but the below are the stand out of all of her trilogy books.

The Trilogy called the Ancient Future Trilogy:

1. The Ancient Future: The Dark Ages

2. An Echo in Time: Atlantis

3. Master of Reality: The Gathering

All these books and the trilogy's that follow these books are about time travel, spirituality, magic, martial arts and psychic phenomena. The way the author weaves the story from the first sentence to the last is spell binding and I couldn't put the books down. The author uses old tales and urban myths in the books and weaves them into the story seamlessly. I really love that the main character is Australian and is completely different from the norm in most of fantasy books. I also love that the first book highlights Wales and their history in a sense.

For me these books speak to all things, even now as old as I am, that I very interested in. These books and the sequel trilogy's are a must read for anyone looking for a fantastically written and thought out fantasy novel.

I use Google search for everything and while I don't believe there is a search engine better than Googles I have on occasion used Bing and Duck Duck Go. Bing doesn't measure up in any way shape or form to Google. It is clunky and for me at least, returns entries that are completely useless. My google/search engine fu is strong so it isn't me. Duck Duck Go is a great search engine and if Google shut down tomorrow I would switch to using Duck Duck Go full time. I like using all 3 search engines for comparative search results if what I am looking for is hard to find results for with just one. Lets be honest the search results displayed are the result of SEO keywords on sites so most of the time a lot of the results are useless but Google seems to be able to narrow the results down a lot and give me exactly what I asked for and need.

For me, it's all about Farming Simulator 25. The wait was long, but it was well worth it. The graphics are stunning, reflecting the immense effort that went into making this game outstanding. Giants decision to include many mods from FS22 in FS25 was brilliant, demonstrating their commitment to listening to players—a rarity in game development. The gameplay is smooth, and the change in menu colors from blue and grey to green and dark grey makes a significant visual impact. The green speedometer and interface are pleasing to the eyes.

While the game did have some bugs at release, it's not unusual for new games. Importantly, there were no critical bugs at launch, indicating the high quality of work Giants put into the game. They quickly released a patch to address minor issues, further proving their responsiveness to player feedback.

The introduction of NPCs and additional missions in a simulation game sets Giants apart in this genre. I particularly enjoy the new building missions, such as constructing a grain mill museum on the Riverbend Springs map and a temple on the Hutan Pantai map. These features add depth and engagement, making Farming Simulator 25 a standout for me.

If your PC has an Nvidia card and you want to see the performance of your GPU overlayed when playing a game you can hit ALT + R and it will display all the performance specs of your game. E.g. FPS, Temp etc.

I use Google Mail, Drive, Maps, YouTube, Finance and Sheets the most.

All of the products I use are great and I would say I use Gmail the most as my email is with Gmail. I can lay everything out logically and organising my emails makes it so much easier to find and email quickly.

I use YouTube for watching live streams and vods. YouTube makes it easy for me to keep up with DIY, gaming news and reviews.

Google Maps, by far is the most useful tool because I use it for all my travelling, whether I know the router or not. It tells me when police cameras are in affect and can re-route me if there is traffic or an accident on the way to my destination.

Sheets and Finance allow me to modifiy and keep track of my stock portfolio and what stock I have on my wishlist to buy. In finance I can create and run reports on all my stock and I can find the latest information on any stock.

One of my favorite money makers is the Mushroom Greenhouses. Details below:

• In the construction menu go to the greenhouse section and select Small Mushroom Greenhouse.

• Place 2 to start with on land you own.

• Buy a water tanker from the shop. E.g. the Abi 500 tanker. Attach this to your tractor.

• You can use the water point under the windmill on RiverBend Springs map to fill the tanker up with water or on any map you can just find the nearest water source with a not too steep and angle to the water to fill up the tanker.

• To do the above, reverse the tanker into the water, but don't go too far. You just want enough that the option to fill the tanker is displayed on the screen.

• For the small Mushroom Greenhouses it will take 3 and a half trips to the water source to fill them once the water is transported to the greenhouses.

• In the owned productions menu select each Mushroom Greenhouse at a time and select each lot of mushrooms.

• Once selected, activate the production for each.

• I like to select the output to storing so that the pallets of Mushrooms are spawned in the pallet area but you can set the output to sell.

• It takes about 3 months in game for the Greenhouses to spawn a pallet.

• Once pallets are being produced you can transport these pallets on a trailer to the best selling point on the map. To check where you will get the best price on the map you can go to the prices area and select Mushrooms.

• Once you have sold your Mushroom products, that's it. You have completed your Mushroom production.

People who don't play FS25 don't understand how enjoyable it is to harvest, plow etc your own fields. They don't get how you can lose a whole day in IRL to the game because it is so addictive, and just that good. There is just something so satisfying seeing your products from start to finish and profiting from that. They also, believe the game to be hard to learn but it is relatively easy and not complicated at all.
