I’ve not had a good day today. The kids have been shits, my wife has winged at me for not doing something I have already done, I’m hot, tired and stressed from work and fed up of not having a good nights sleep due to my 3 year old waking us up in the middle of the night constantly.

I want to rage at something but I can’t leave the house. I have access to a gaming PC, PS5 and all the movies the streaming services have to offer, my wife isn’t home so it’s just me and a couple of kids who should be asleep in the next hour or two.

I need some catharsis, what would you do?

Doom. Go play Doom. Don't pick hardest difficulty, don't pick easiest difficulty. Smash your way through some demons with a killer fucking soundtrack.

EDIT: Doom 2016 is the one I was referring to. Great lore, but you don't have to slog through cutscenes and the lore doesn't get in your way when mowing down crowds of angry monsters.

Agreed. Keep the difficulty hard enough to keep your mind from wandering, but not so difficult that it makes you angrier.
