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.

Don’t forget to never fix game breaking bugs.

Combined with a single save only mechanic so if you encounter the bug even if it doesn't lead to a crash there is a good chance you have to start over from scratch because your last save game before the bug has been overwritten.

That's a good one.

I also forgot to add it should have a veeeeery slow and long intro, so the actual horrors of the game should start after 2h of running the game so people aren't eligible for a refund anymore.

Even Fromsoft managed to do this by placing geometry wrong. If you can't get out, can't get killed, and don't have any 'reset to last bonfire' option... this is where you live now.

I think every game of theirs since Dark Souls has a decent supply of homebones, and you can always 'suicide out' with the darksign. This a Demon's Souls issue? Never before in the history of video games has so much jank been dropped haphazardly into a pile and ended up creating such a great game. If you can't get stuck on geometry in that, then it's the only technical issue it doesn't have.
