Re: Gaming 2023
I've cut out loads of games this year (Quordle, Octordle, the other one I forgot the name of), so it is now a 55/55 split (see @mik I'm giving 110% too!) between Wordle and Wordiply.

Speaking of BeamNG, they've just done an update and refreshed the lorries, sure whatever, but in the career mode preview, they've added what's effectively a full insurance simulator.

It includes a 'policy score' (aka NCB) and you can opt to repair your car outside of insurance, if your NCB is impacted you have to earn more by doing more jobs to pay the premium.
Absolutely bonkers. Gran Turismo? The 'Real Driving Simulator'? Get out of town, this is the sort of boring crushing reality I want

Thanks DJ, this was my point I don't tend to game that much these days, but this year I did far more than usual thanks to BG3, hence the number. Might have been too subtle.

I shall endeavour to lobby the dev team to include locking wheelnuts.
Re: Gaming 2023
Finishing off the year with Far Cry 6 on Gamepass, well I would if it weren’t so bad. The mechanics of the game just don’t work, stealth doesn’t work, and going guns blazing is also annoying as the game has infinite spawning air support. I find the shooting inconsistent too with headshots usually being 1 shot kills but other times not which kills the stealth aspect. The fecking special weapons are all shite too.
How about not having a sig at all?
Re: Gaming 2023
Having finally knocked Alien Isolation and Space Marine off the pile of shame I've now spent some time with GTA V. It's quite a thing isn't it
Minigun reefer madness if my favourite mission so far.
Unforgiving RNJ of the racing missions very nearly made me rage quit.

I've been playing Dave the Diver on Steam whilst also picking up Cyberpunk and Alan Wake II which were both in the end of year Xbox sale.
