New Episode! The Beautiful Anarchy of TrackMania 2 (Patreon)

Sorry it's taken me a while to post this, I've just been extremely busy lately and as I'm sure many of you are aware, the last couple of weeks have been pretty heartbreaking. Thank you so much for your continued support and patience though, because this one was really fun to make. TrackMania 2 is one of the purest examples of ludicrously fast time-trial racing going right now - its multiplayer, however, is a different, just as amazing beast entirely. In this episode of Meditations, I want to explore why the insanity of the TrackMania 2 community is so charming. No full episode this weekend, I'm working on that for the weekend after this one because a lot of research is going into it (quality is clearly as important to you guys as it is to me and I want to maintain that high standard). That said, I think I'll be making a kind of bonus video tomorrow (that I won't charge for, of course) in which I'll answer a YouTube request I got to make a reading list of some of the books and authors that have shaped my literary outlook. Just seemed like it could be fun and would fill the gap between this video and the next one. Hopefully you find it fun too! Patron rewards for this week will be sent out tomorrow too (again, sorry for the delay). Anyway, thank you so so much again for your continued support. You really have no idea how much it means to me, and how it has gotten me through such a stressful and heartbreaking couple of weeks. You guys are just the best. Hamish Writing on Games
