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.

I think of that comic every time I see a gritty brown game. I don't see bloom as much any more, though.

I think maybe that's part of why The Last Of Us grabbed everyone so hard; it was a gritty, green game. STALKER 2 is brown AF, though. Thank God they skipped the whole bloom fad.

I think bloom is one of those things that when it's used right it brings the atmosphere together without sticking out as a thing that's going on, like how our eyes adjust to light changes. When it's out of control and blacks out the scene by going WAAAAY too bright it sucks because you're looking at bloom, not at the game.
