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.

That's why I love UFO 50.

It really went hard at capturing what I love about classic games. The Desert Western RPG was so good, even with all of its grind.

I haven't played it but I have watched a little bit, and the part that it really captures in my observation, that very few modern games have the balls to capture accurately, is how uncaring some of its games are whether you are having fun.

The fun is not a gift. The fun is not automatic. The fun is your reward once you get your shit together and figure things out, and until you get yourself to that level, the game is not concerned about your experience. It's content on its mountaintop, waiting for you to join it (if you're up for the task, and if not, that's okay too.)

Brilliant observation. I didn't consider that at all!
