  1. I just think, how great would it have been if Cyberpunk 2077 is as good as Witcher 3 (amount of quests/side quests, aspects that they let us explorer through the quests).

  2. Everyone thinks they're good at Snap until they finally start playing against humans in the upper-mid ranks. That could take months for a casual new player, but once you get there the overall fun and feeling that you're actually good at the game diminishes drastically. The simplistic mechanics lead to RNG-based outcomes that put Hearthstone to shame. It's brilliantly designed to hook casual players, but when I hit that wall I realized the game was just not for me.

  3. Happy New Year and thanks for providing us all with a great year of content mate!

  4. So glad you mentioned nobody saves the world I hadn’t heard of it and just started playing it on new years on gamepass and that games amazing and so fun appreciate it skillup!

  5. Just here to mention, like I do whenever people talk about Scorns combat, that you can avoid 99% of combat in this game easily. I can think of one spot you need to actually shoot an enemy to get by without dying and if you do it’s one of the rare spots where the admittedly terrible checkpoint system works great and reloads you 20 feet away from where that happens.

    But then there is the half-baked and tacked on bossfight at the end that I absolutely hated and cannot defend. But other than that, the creatures will largely leave you alone if you just get away from them and let them live their lives.

    Which I loved

  6. How does one get a Edge Subscription in Aus? Been googling and doesn't seem like a direct one is available

  7. THANK YOU for doing right by Horizon Forbidden West! This is definitely the most underrated game that is actually highly rated there is. Also loved the Arcane praise. That show is a monumental achievement.

  8. Hate the inclusion of your indie games and ‘print media’ wtf.

  9. i dont care to hear anymore about "mental health" in video games because lkids these days wear their supposed problems like a badge out for internet points. im sick of it. i dont care.

  10. Thank you so much for the podcast/audiobooks recommendation. Immersive and narrative audiodramas and regular podcasts/audiobooks are what I listen to during my job as a dog walker and a driver. If you're reading this and have any recommendations for this type of content /please/ let me know, even if it's just an exceptional narration of a normal audiobook. Thanks ShillUp, Happy New Year!

  11. We don't deserve you Ralph. As I get older and have less and less time to catch up with my Youtube subs, you're still the only channel I have notifications on for and love the time and effort you put into all your content. Truly one of the best creators on the platform and in the industry. Have a great break, can't wait to see what you bring us this year.
