I watched season 1 years ago then tried to watch season 2 after a long break. I honestly had no idea what was going on and that I would have to rewatch the first season to be able to follow it. Is it worth it?

Bugger. They always seem to replenish stock in the middle of the night or when I’m teaching and can’t do anything about it. I’d rather they waited until there was a large enough quantity rather than restock in dribs and drabs. I’m trying to look at the positive side in that I haven’t spent £450 that I may well need in a few months.

Ah - I assumed the email alert would come a few minutes before the restock. But if they restock then send emails then yeah - that would be pointless.

Amazon are fucking terrible at sending email alerts for restocks.

It’s nuts that for most people it’s totally impossible to get one. If you’re good with tech and signing up to stick alerts, you’ve got a very slim chance (I have never used Telegram and don’t understand it). The system is unintentionally but massively rigged in favour of scalpers. Even if I sign up for alerts, it’s not like I could drop what I was doing and start online shopping.

Missed it again! How do I sign up for these stock alerts? I thought I was signed up for one but I never actually get emails.

I don’t understand why the retailers don’t implement a waiting list/queuing system for things in high demand. I know it wouldn’t make them any money but it would at least make them look a lot better.

Bugger. I didn’t even realise there was a stock drop.

Seeing as it’s on Amazon, wouldn’t whoever fell for it be protected?

What is it with the Amazon marketplace scams that pop up from time to time claiming to be selling a PS5 for less than £100? What would happen if someone actually tried to buy one?

I did my first run without using any Death Defiances. Two regenerating casts with speed boons and Phalanx Shot with Deflect. I barely bothered with my main weapon.

I’ve now escaped 9 times. Not yet with the shield though.

I’m on fifty+ runs and I still don’t know what the purple glow/aura around certain weapons means. I usually choose the one that’s glowing anyway - does it just do extra damage, or is it something else entirely?

I’ve only really tried since launch day but found it impossible. I’ve got a PS5 into a few shopping baskets but it’s always disappeared before I checked out. If I’d pre-ordered, I may well have got one - but trying to get one since launch has been impossible no matter how much effort you put in. I’m not convinced they’ll be generally available until well after Easter. I remember hearing Sony doing something weird with Pre-orders like only offering them to limited numbers of people who were worthy enough fans - was that actually true?

The stock situation is shit. I don't remember any previous consoles being so hard to get hold of for RRP.
