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.

i think Kennedy would agree
It is now my sacred duty as an FPS dinosaur to inform you that there is a vaporware game named JFK Reloaded where the goal is to reproduce Oswald's supposed firing sequence.
Its essentially impossible, btw.
Though the game is absurdly unpopular, there at least was a community around it and the game has a complex scoring system based around precise wounds, and no one has ever replicated the Warren Commission's theory.
Basically, the 'magic bullet' shot is impossible to pull off.
Most seasoned FPS players have a pretty hard time even coming close to the 3 supposed shots being fired anywhere near the actual timing and general vicinity of where the shots supposedly landed at the same time.
Normally when the same person replies to every comment on a post, they're arguing some dumb toxic shenanigans. But here you are, teaching me about war, FPS game theory, and JFK Reloaded. Much applause to you, sir.
Thanks! I am bored, without my old PC and waiting for a steam deck to arrive, so ... just shootin the shit, as it were =P
Enjoy your Steam Deck! All my friends who have one love it to death.
I am actually currently idea working out something kind of up my alley as it were:
What if there was a game that allowed for not only generally realistic military style combat... but also enabled highly skilled players, or players who practice a good deal, to be able to pull off some John Wick style bullshit thats always been impossible to do well in a multiplayer game?
My current concept is that through taking advantage of the Steam Deck's unique control scheme, I can essentially more realistically convey both the pros and cons of gunplay and essentially bits of MMA/CQC style stuff from action movies or like MGS cutscenes.
Its likely going to take me a long time to fully attempt a demo of this, and it may not work at all.
But, im currently unemployed, living off of disability, quite fine without much in person social contact and i actually have a lot of experience writing code of all kinds after a decade in the tech industry.
It could absolutely all fail, but even then, I'd just have fun in the attempt.
