"The fact that the London market is rising in terms of average price while the cheapest area in the country is falling shows that the level of demand somewhat depends on location," Mr Halstead added. The cheapest place was found to be the North East of England, which saw prices fall by 2% to £632 a month. The most expensive place to rent is London, with tenants paying an average of £2,039 a month - the highest amount ever recorded, according to the company's latest data. We are again urging landlords to consider Rent Guarantee insurance as the likelihood of tenants struggling to pay their rent grows with each passing month," said Andy Halstead, HomeLet & Let Alliance chief executive officer. "Rental prices remain high, which brings a level of risk for both tenants and landlords. ![]() That marks a 1.2% increase from the average £1,199 bill in April. The vast majority of the game - at least what I’ve seen so far - is just walking back and forth from your castle to a boss.Average rents across the UK have gone up again, rising to £1,213 a month, according to HomeLet. Even when you learn how to craft a teleporter that lets you tap into a network of teleporters throughout the map you’ll still be limited, as your inventory can’t teleport with you. Eventually you’ll learn to transform into a wolf to travel faster, then you’ll be able to ride horses to travel even faster, but the exercise never changes. Leave your base, walk for five to ten minutes, kill a boss, walk back to your base, repeat. This means lots of walking back and forth along familiar paths, and not much else. V Rising is technically an open world game, but you're forced to travel along narrow roads to and from your castle anytime you venture out. The scent will lead you in a straight line towards the enemy, but you can’t travel that way. First you select a boss, then you follow its scent across the giant map until you find it. This is essentially the core loop of the game. In order to earn new blueprints and progress, you’ll need to venture out to find V Rising’s many boss enemies, which means going for a long walk. Wander around your base for a few minutes killing NPCs, chopping trees, and mining nodes and you’ll return with a healthy supply of mats. The basic resources - wood, copper, bones, grass, and blood - are easy to come by. In the early game you’ll start by crafting a workbench for making weapons and tools, a coffin to sleep in and respawn from, devices that produce mist to protect you from sunlight while inside your base, and all the machines you need for rendering wood into planks, copper into ingots, hide into leather, and blood into fuel. Every boss you eliminate will reward you with new combat abilities and blueprints you can take back to your castle and use to improve your base. Your goal is to build and expand a castle by collecting resources and taking on bosses of ever-increasing difficulty. V Rising is as much of a survival/crafting game as it is an action RPG.

The problem is that - as far as I can tell - there’s no way to overcome or outgrow the sunlight issue, which is the promise of a survival/crafting game. Where at first it presented interesting challenges that forced me to use my time wisely and plan when/where I go, It eventually started to feel like nothing more than an annoying hindrance on a timer. Case in point: I’m ten hours in and I’m already over the whole sunlight thing.
