- a new year has arrived.
So, what do you want to do, from a gaming perspective?
Are you brave enough to commit yours to writing?
Is this my way of giving myself a pass to just play Infinity Nikki this year?
Tom
My new year’s resolution is to become less of a completionist.
I think it’s becoming a problem.
When I play games, I like to finish everything I can before moving on to the next area.
But I can’t.
Ignore your bulging quest log, stop scouring for that last little thing.
It’s time to move on and get to more of the good stuff.
Did I reach that goal?
Technically no I didn’t, but I’ll give myself credit for coming close with two stories completed.
This year I’ll be less strict, and less ambitious, with my resolution.
Does this count as a resolution if it’s so vague?
I’d like to think so.
Chris
This year I’d like to play more games with other people.
But that’s kind of the point.
Did I manage it?
Well, not exactly.
Hand on heart I really did.
But the allure of spamming that money code is just too dang strong.
So while things started off well enough, I soon gave into temptation and deployed the motherlode code.
I have no regrets.
As for this year, I am actually still a tad undecided.
But I absolutely loved it.
Perhaps like last year, I will be pleasantly surprised by the results.
Katharine
I made a resolution last year to finally play GTA 5.
Did I play GTA 5 last year?
I just never quite have the time to dedicate myself to them properly, you know!?
Honestly, nobody does horses quite like RDR2 does.
Bertie
I did it; I can’t believe I actually stuck to a resolution.
Last year I said I’d start streaming and I did.
I joineda Dungeons & Dragons group called Chaotic Questersand began streaming roughly once a week on Twitch.
This year, I’m being more specific.
I’m almost embarrassed to admit it but I’ve never properly played through a From Software game.
I’ve dabbled in them - in Demon’s Souls (the original!)
Considering this, you’d expect I’d have long maxed out my character’s levels.
Well this isn’t the case.
See, I’ve been sitting at Level 88 Herblore for the last seven years.
In fact I don’t think I’ve gained more than 10,000 XP in the skill during this time.
The issue is I just detest training Herblore.
Outside of mini-games, the process is so tedious.
It just takes forever.
I won’t use XP lamps.
Don’t bring such nonsense into my house.)
