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.

Pains me to see Marathon on this list. The game is so good in so many ways. Gun play, world building, narrative, characters. The quality is truly there. Their problem was that they made the wrong genre. Why they would spend so much time and money on an extraction shooter is beyond me.

Because extraction shooters make money.

Well, some extraction shooters.

Ok, actually a very tiny fraction of extraction shooters make money.

But we can totally tempt people away from it, and make all that money for ourselves!

A small number make a lot of money, so gambling addicted CEOs want to try their hand at it
