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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Thanks for mentioning Alien: Isolation! It’s my favorite game. After many years, I’m finally attempting a silent Nightmare low% run! I’m almost done with M16. Cheers!
Half Life?
I like your taste. These are some bangers lol.
If you haven't, you should play Armored Core 6. It's a FROM game, and it feels like one, in all the best ways.
But it's also a mech game, and it feels like one, in all the best ways! Every button assaults your enemy, every motion feels fluid, fast, effortless - or huge, heavy, clunky - your mech is your mech, and many thoughtful builds can become OP. The customization is bananas. And yet - some fights will remain challenging.
With all sincerity, easy 10/10 game for me, I proceeded from NG -> NG+ -> NG++ directly, which is a first for me and I'm an oldish dude. AND I felt thoroughly rewarded by the end of NG++. It's a literal perfect game, just unreasonably fun and well-crafted.
I’m going to have to try that game. I played a bunch of the original but I think nothing in between.
Not Witcher 2?
Definitely not 2. Not for lacking of passion, though. They just didn’t pull it off.
Interesting take, what did 1 have that 2 didn't? As someone who enjoyed 1 a lot, I found 2 to be a much more fun experience. 1 felt klunky for me mechanically speaking and just didn't age well. Thematically and character wise I'd say they're of similar quality for sure.
