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.

Golden age of gaming is now, though. We get so many bangers basically for free it's insane

I've been curious lately if the original Ape Escape is as good as I remember. I heard the sequels weren't as good, but I have fond memories of the first game on PS1.

I prefer the sequels to AE1, with 3 being the best of the bunch (no pun intended).

Millennials killed gaming. And coffee. And avocado toast.

Games are amazing right now, what is this talking about? EA/WB/Ubisoft dreck?

Yeah, oh no a bunch of people got into an industry that they loved so much they got underpaid and lowered the value of their labour to be treated worse.
But then a bunch of them realized they could just use their passion to make something themself and get paid for it and now we are having a hard time justifying why the big industry's "shovels" are special.

It is a shame this happening to lots of industries right now for lots of other reasons too. With the big industry now trying to justify it as being cheaper to make because they automated all the people that make the product especially better.
