It is what you make of it.
Exactly.
If overpriced pubs in town rammed with pissheads isn't your thing then don't go. Do something else.
This year, I'm dressing up as Emmett Brown and popping down the local for a couple of hours with the missus. I'll be home early-ish, probably around 9 or 10 for a takeaway and a few glasses of wine to see the New Year in. Nothing too over-the-top, all fairly low key, I don't intend getting smashed.
Looking forward to it.
