@DiscoStu, you should see it where I live in the UK. My sister moved to her own place a couple of estates away and the layout inside is identical to our mum's house. My grandparent's place which was a couple of estates in the other direction was also identical.
Then, when I moved back to Market Drayton three years ago, we got a house close to my mum's place, and the layout of my house is identical to my childhood friend's house, who lived one street over. So it seems this entire area where I live, the houses all have one of two layouts...
I'll be honest. I've not been able to catch the live stream for a couple of weeks. British Summer Time means that I can only really get the first hour of the weekday stream before needing to retire to get a semi-decent amount of sleep. The weekend is just getting hectic with the youngest starting to move about and the eldest wanting to play in the sun all day...
That said, depending on what is put in place, I will try to watch whenever I can, otherwise I'll be catching up via the VODs when I'm cooking dinner and whatnot.
Hell, I've wanted to get back into streaming myself because I really enjoyed the interaction aspect of it, but my time is just getting soaked up by toddlers and babies and wives... mostly one of each of those.

Woo! A singleplayer map in the vault!
Short, sweet and very authentic. I would go as far as to say that you could drop this into the middle of We've Got Hostiles and a lesser experienced Half Life player would be none the wiser.
Played on hard and actually missed the optional side path so it was pretty challenging.
One issue I noticed was that the grunts having a conversation don't react when the other is killed. I assume this was done so that the player can bust the vent without the grunts spinning round and blasting them? Otherwise, solid.

You actually make a good point. My old Rio was much heavier than I realised. We had to winch it onto the recovery truck only to realise the back nearside wheel had seized up after three months on the driveway. Took three of us to lift the one wheel off the ground.

Likely some copyrighted element in the background, or perhaps they acted as advisers on certain aspects? I've not seen it but it is apparently dripping with references to existing franchises.

I'm real sorry to hear that, man.
On the subject of your feelings, being at the absolute peak of an emotion, even a negative one, can often provide a severe jolt to the creative process. I've often found a need to do something when losing a loved one, just to keep busy, to keep going.
I've churned out maps, short stories and even a video or two. I'm not saying don't grieve, but don't squander the creative benefits. <3

@Snehk: I'd say one or the other. Investing in a powerful laptop is a huge mistake in my opinion. I have often considering getting a laptop, but I wouldn't dream of getting one for gaming. Artwork and writing maybe, perhaps have a few older titles on there, but a modern day "gaming" laptop is just a massive waste of money.

Don't get me wrong, this has had absolutely zero effect on me. I've had comments to this nature on other older channels that I usually ignore. Since, turning 30 last year, I really couldn't care less what other people thing of me.
I'll be honest though, this time I saw an opportunity to turn the last comment to my advantage and I took it. And yeah... I'm just a little pleased with myself.

Hope everything is going OK for you, sir. Also, I feel the most important question is yet to be answered and I think I speak for everyone when I ask: Did you get tacos?

Considering the examples are The Sims and modern X-COM games, I believe we're talking about games that allow you to manage multiple, fully customisable (from scratch) characters at once.
XCOM and The Sims are all I can think of though...
Pillars of Eternity allows you to hire up to five custom party members which you make in the character creator. Not sure if Tyranny offers the same thing, but I've not seen any such option and I'm 16 hours into the story... so probably no.

New car is only a 1248cc compared to the previous 1399, but it actually feels much more powerful.
24th? I may be missing some tentacles.
The Core is now a Fallout 4 mod.
TWHL4 is now a Half-Life mod.
I rarely do anything else, so I can't say what issues you might encounter doing more than that. Honestly, the backlash baffles me...

I am thoroughly looking forward to the sequel, Morning Stuff
Still, pretty awesome.
Also, yeah... This is definitely going to delay The Core a little more unfortunately, at least for the first few months.
Broken links!
I realise now that neither 8am or 1pm are PUBG time, so ignore me.
I've never had a laptop that lasted more than three years, so I tend to avoid them.
