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.

They should make like a "Director's Cut" or something, offline version of the game, that removes all of the grindy mmo bullshit and lets people who play single player RPGs enjoy the plot...

Kind of like how they do in Japan with the online DQ games.

There's so little actual meaningful interaction with the game during the main quest that people who don't like MMOs might as well just watch it on Youtube or something. A good chunk of the ARR runtime will be players teleporting and running through the same bit of scenery to the goddamn Waking Sands...

In fact, there's so seldom any voice acting you can just read most of it on the wiki page and just imagine characters nodding and shaking their heads, while the same three pieces of music play over the top of it.

Good to know, thanks.

Maybe they should just do a "retelling" then.
