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.

Triple A inherently stands for risk avoidant, and money grabbend. It takes a special exception to get an AAA game that is more than ok. But the best games have never been the big bidget super polished games.
In the last 5 years, we have seen vampire survivors raise an entire genre from obscurity to the general public. Lethal company has caused a lot of chaos among friends. BG3 has surprised even the fans (one of those AAA exceptions). Technically, Satisfactory was finally released in 2024. Stray has given us a small but unique experience. Dave the diver is an experience that I still can't pinpoint the genre of. Half Life Alyx was revolutionary for the VR market. There has been a complete revival of the boomer shooter genre. Doki Doki literature club spawned a new cult following.
These are just some samples that I grabbed from the following search: https://steamdb.info/instantsearch/?range%5BuserScore%5D=90%3A&refinementList%5BreleaseYear%5D%5B0%5D=2025&refinementList%5BreleaseYear%5D%5B1%5D=2024&refinementList%5BreleaseYear%5D%5B2%5D=2023&refinementList%5BreleaseYear%5D%5B3%5D=2022&refinementList%5BreleaseYear%5D%5B4%5D=2021&refinementList%5BreleaseYear%5D%5B5%5D=2020
