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.

Fake: Anon's dad shows up

Gay: Anon is talking to other guys about games

Dad wants to go back in time and change events.

Flashback:

Anon's Dad sits in the living room playing Chrono Trigger
His girlfriend enters the room, wearing nothing but a smile and a pair of childbearing hips
"Why don't you stop playing that stupid game and come to the bedroom, Anon's Dad?"
"What did you just call m..."
"Oh shush!"
Reluctantly he gets up and follows her

Flash forward to today, seeing Anon's cluttered room:

"Shoulda kept playing Chrono Trigger."

I'm playing Chrono Trigger right now, second playthrough ever. It's good, but I wouldn't say that it's the Greatest GOAT of all time. It's no GoldenEye.

Prefect Dark was GoldenEye improved.

[–] kat_angstrom@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

A lot of people say that

And some of them might be right

The greatest greatest of all time of all time?

[–] Tuxman@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I would discuss Chrono Trigger to change your mind, but that would be gay

/s 😜

This is Lemmy, that's encouraged I think.

you have too many typos in Disco Elysium

Weird ass way of spelling Command and Conquer

[–] lessthanluigi 2 points 20 hours ago

Crazy way of spelling Tony Hawk's American Wasteland

Going back to GoldenEye's control scheme is rough once you're used to using two joysticks.

That's right . which is why you should play the 360 remaster.

I can't go back to the OG 64 one after playing it

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But it is so so soooo good!

[–] kat_angstrom@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

You're correct, GoldenEye is a masterpiece, setting a high bar that would only ever be surpassed 10 years later by Duke Nukem

I have to wonder how pissed off this dude has to be every time he comes into his philistine son’s awful little home without a single crt. The fact that he’s willing to tolerate any of this goes to show how much he loves his son. That’s parenting goals.

What about secret of mana?

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sorry, too busy to worry about "best game" because of my 11th playthrough of Final Fantasy Tactics

[–] Redacted@lemmy.zip 4 points 18 hours ago

Why don't you two find a room and talk about games.
