made it onto the calendar, and ultimatelycame down on the side of Lila.
Both deserve to be there.
I am excited for the next game,Echostasis, coming in 2023.

It’s not that it’s not fun.
Like Vermintide before it, Darktide is basicallyLeft 4 Deadrebuilt in a world of Warhammer.
A joy to commit this megamurder.

The chunky revolver which pops heads with ease then takes ages to reload.
The chainsword, oh the chainsword!
The weapons are also why I’ll probably stop playing Darktide.

It is never fun.
It creates no interesting decisions.
Simply hold on and hope it throws up some good numbers for you.

It’s time-padding trash.
Without it, I might happily dip in and out Darktide with pals across a very long time.
Maybe the speedrunning violence ofNeon Whiteearlier this year had exhausted my limited annual supply of video game competitiveness.

Maybe the initial learning curve inHyper Demonwas too high and frustrating.
I respect the heck out of Hyper Demon.
It’s gorgeous, and it sounds beautiful too.
What fresh hell this is!
I could have again spent hours jostling for position on the leaderboards with my pals.
Not for me, not right now.
It even beat Untitled Goose Game on that front.
I didn’t even really play Wordle myself.
I had a few goes, on and off, but didn’t commit.
I already spend my workday shouting and swearing at words, y’know?
How rare for so many people to play together.
What a fantastic year for little games that became part of our daily lives and our relationships.
