Game of the Year 2023 (audio version, video to come very soon) (Patreon)

Hey everyone!

Happy Hogmanay! Hope your holidays were good and you're spending the new year celebrations the way you want to be spending them. Personally, I'm posting this and then chilling the hell out, as outside of Christmas, I have been working on video stuff pretty non-stop for the past... god knows how long. 

But yeah, here is the audio for the Game of the Year piece that'll be going up tomorrow! I'm super sorry the full video isn't ready yet - as I say I've been working constantly to try and finish it - but I just couldn't get it done in time for Patreon's month-end deadline. The video will be with you in the next day or so, and when it's posted for you all to watch, you will only be charged for this post. You will not be charged for the video portion. I sincerely hope you can understand—I really have been working my arse off to get this done, haha.

The end result is fun though—almost 45 minutes exploring a year in games that honestly didn't do for me what it clearly did for other people, but that hopefully makes for a more interesting list in the process. Just remember that this is my opinion alone, and it's based purely on the games that I played this year so I probably missed some of your favourites. I like to think that since you're here though, you understand all of that. You're cool.

I just want to say thank you all, sincerely, for your generous support this year—whether you signed up recently or you've been here a while. I really mean it when I say that your support - not just your pledges but your messages and comments and the like - have really kept the channel going and have allowed me to experiment with a whole bunch of new ideas that I've been working on in the background, and that should hopefully come to fruition in early 2024. You truly are the best and I seriously appreciate you all a whole bunch. 

Once again, hope you're all good, that you have a safe and happy new year, and I'll see you all with this video and more in 2024!

Thanks so much again,

Hamish
