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.

I refuse to play games that I can’t quit within 2 minutes of starting it. Persona series is one of those that I refuse to play. My time is way to valuable to commit an hour or more to 1 activity.

That's not valuing your time, friendo. That's undiagnosed ADD.

I get that, however before getting on meds I had no problem playing RuneScape for hours straight with YouTube on the side. No idea why I was fine with literally running in circles for 6 hours straight but making eye contact for 2 minutes was painful.

You're joking, right ?

I think you'll miss out on a lot of great games thinking that way! Sometimes needing to commit time into a game is where a lot of the value comes from in its experience, and persona is one of those series.

So no games with words at all I would assume? Shit even a round of Tetris is longer than 2 minutes.

So you won't watch an hr+ movie?

[–] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

No i refuse to watch movies. The last movie I’ve seen was Lion King 1/2

So do you just play on Xbox where you can jump between titles and have it save your game state?

[–] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Yes actually. It’s my favorite part about Xbox.

I still haven't played so many games because of opening cinematics and overly long and boring tutorials for this reason. It sucks because I can get super into a game if I just get over that. Like Baldur's Gate 3 was a chore to get into, but I knew I would absolutely love it and now I think it's probably the best game ever.
