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.

Secret ending: you keep playing the huge selection of games we already have, endlessly, forgetting games you played a while ago as you restart one you already forgot.

Edit: currently playing Warhammer 40k: Space Marine. So far it's really fun. It's as if you're playing Doom as a more normal guy.

Real ending: your gpu dies in a year or so and you can no longer play anything ever.

Well damn, I hope it doesn't.

Though, if it does, it would be under warranty, and thankfully I'm not in america so my warranty has a chance to actually be useful

Maybe this is a good time to visit the hundreds of never-installed games we have in our steam libraries.

Nooo! I won't ruin my pristine collection by playing the games!

Good ending for the gamers, bad ending for the devs...

[–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago

If a dev is good they can make games worth buying with current hardware

Second secret ending: the games you have won't run on your pc.

-someoone who waited 5 years to play fallout 76 after buying it 2 weeks after launch.

I mean, fallout 76 doesn't really fall in the category of games I'd even consider

[–] raker@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Already did this last year and according to Steam data many others, too.

I have used an Xbox Gamepass trial a few times. Its a good deal honestly, especially if you play a variety of games.

Except its competing with essentially a 40+ year backlog of games I own that Inhave collected over my life. I have zero need for it.

And frankly, its biggest competition is something like HumbleBundle, where you can often get a pile of games per month to keep without the subscriotion.
