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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Lol, I just said that to my wife! She's just finished Heavensward, and it took a lot of "seriously it gets better! But also I played through the first hour of the new expansion and fought one mob. Of three low-level trash creatures. So... but it's good! Really!"
I think it's closer to 60 hours.
ARR is such a godawful slog, and I wouldn't pay a penny for the game until you're through it. Heavensward was where I started to get invested. Stormblood is forgettable, but Shadowbringers turned it up again.
The real issue is there's so much filler. It was designed to be played over years (all the end of expansion questlines were trickled in every few months), and when you play them all in a row it can get overwhelming.
It is an issue with most MMO for me
I try re launching BlackDesert/Warframe/GuildWars2/PathOfExile sometimes and quit in a few days
I have no idea how the devs can fix that adding stuff is necessary to keep the playerbase
What made poe was leagues with new mechanics and fun twists, but then they started keeping them in the base game and now it's just a clusterfuck.
