This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Whoever decided that "hold to interact" was to be the new default needs shot.

It works when building tension, or even for showing a character putting effort into an action, but when I need to hold a fucking button for 5 seconds just to have random junk magically teleported into my pockets, it kills my want to interact with the world.

Fuck you, David Cage. I don't think you're the progenitor, but you certainly abuse the shit out of it as a mechanic, and your reign of terror shoulda ended with Indigo Prophecy.

I recently replayed Arkham Knight and the way you're handling those toxic containers, requiring you tu be very slow and careful while everything explodes around you is a perfect example of this done right. Such a great game. Shame there wasn't a spin-off sequel to that.
