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.

According to my research, the Spanish Inquisition never shows up when you expect it.

Someone has never played de_rats. There are counters in the kitchen and the bathroom. 😌

To take a shit is now a game mechanic?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

I remember in ARK you would periodically shit a sphere. I forget what it can be used for though. It is definitely a game mechanic :)

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Kingdom Come 1 promised this as a mechanic but then didn't implement it. There are still toilets but you can only read books on them.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Sexy books?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

In this game there is a full optional nutritional/metabolic tracking mechanic, where you can leverage taking poops and use it to distract enemies, attract predators, or weaponize them to get other players in-game diseases

In Duke Nukem 3D you could take a crap in the bathroom, and that game is from 1996.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Duke only pissed; on the first level you could find an alien taking a dump tho

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Duke also poops a poop in an aliens neck after ripping the head off!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

Truly a game ahead of its time

Duke Nukem is the name of the protagonist you dingus

3D

It shows up as 2D on my monitor.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You can move in 3D space, as opposed to the previous games, which were side scrollers.

Zero hour

Takes longer than zero hours.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

It is in the Sims. Including "The Sims Bustin' Out" which is an RPG.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Well, the problem is clearly that it is not.
(In case you are actually confused "duty calls" or "I hear the call of duty" (or "I hear the call of nature") can mean the speaker needs to take a shit.)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

"Call of doody"

Also, anon could be referring to the fact that soldiers on the field tend to dig holes to shit if there is no toilet available. Call of duty being a military based game could have had shitting mechanics like how actual soldiers in the field do.

Technically, Half Life is correct. Armor, which constitutes half of your entire life points, is also 100, and you don't have it from the get go.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This is incorrect. Armor takes a large amount of damage dealt to the player, but not all. If you are at 1 HP, and 100 armor, you can still die to a single bullet, even though armor won't be at zero. Fall and drown damage is also not affected by armor. Hence armor is not life.
