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.

There's way too much gatekeeping in gaming. People don't seem to understand that everyone has different tastes, and it's all subjective. There is no objectively good game. For me it's Half Life 2, I don't like shooters, tried it but couldn't get into it. But to many it's one of the greatest games ever.

There are objectively good games. There are not objectively fun games.

Half-Life 2 is objectively good, and if you say it's a bad game you're simply wrong. However if you say it's a game you do not enjoy and isn't fun for you, that's not wrong.

A game can be both good and not enjoyable to you.

Conversely, a game can also be objectively bad and yet fun for some people.
