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.

This dude would have started up Quake and then never quit because the quit screen would basically call you a pussy for leaving.

I'm still stuck in Doom.

I can't quit Alpha Centauri because "Dont go. The drones need you. They look up to you"

So plaintively. Got me every time. I guess I could stay for a few more Winamp songs...

Far cry 4, wait when bad guy said to wait for him. Ending credits play.

And that was unironically the good ending.

It's 4

3 was Vas. He hated you.

4 was the flamboyant guy. He actually liked you at the beginning, and you betray his trust by jumping out the window

FC5 also has the option to finish the game in a couple of minutes if you do what the antagonist asks. Don't remember what exactly it was, leave with your team, I believe.

Developers just casually adding intended game mechanics that makes the speed run incredibly boring.

FC6 too. In the beginning you're only helping the resistance so they'll give you a boat to escape to Miami. Once they give you the boat you're supposed to join them anyway, but if you take the boat and sail far enough away you'll get a cutscene where you escape to Miami and later watch the fall of your country on the news.

Haven't played 6, but at this point I expect them to add a quick ending scenario in every sequel.

Wait, I'll look up the answer and return with an update.

I wear that achievement as a badge of honor. We are not the same.

It would have been rude to deny him. I stand by my decision.

Can someone explain the context of this to me?

[–] [email protected] 105 points 3 weeks ago

In the beginning when you explore one of the starting areas you can encounter a prostitute who offers herself for cheap. If you agree, she tells you to follow her into some backroom. However, there is a giant dude waiting inside who knocks you unconscious and takes all your money (it's scripted, you can't escape this fate once you enter the backroom).

Missed out on the 2 hour refund policy anon. Could’ve got your money back.

[–] Technoguyfication 27 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Unfortunately for anon, Steam didn’t start doing refunds until 2015

I like games that give you a little slap upside the head for being stupid. All things considered, losing the paltry amount of early game currency in Metro is getting off pretty light compared to some games.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago

In Stray you can put a paper bag on your head. It inverts your controls for a bit. I liked that.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 weeks ago

Just get the rest of the achievements and say you wanted to get all the achievements.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 weeks ago

Maybe I am overlooking it, but I don’t see this achievement in my Steam account.
