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.

Menus use a virtual mouse cursor even though you're playing with a controller.

Don't forget you have to hold the button for 5 seconds while an animated circle fills to ensure you are clicking on the button you want to click on.

I want to find the person who decided that was the way. Hold actions are great, if there's ALREADY a press action and you're out of buttons. If there's no press action and I have to hold your button just because, you're bad designers. If you're THAT worried about someone doing something on accident, give me the option to disable it. You don't get to advertise 80 hours of gameplay when 20 of that is holding a button for the UI to work.

Just started playing rdr 2 and this has been such a pain in the arse.

Yeah, it's a great mechanic when it makes sense. I hate when they shoehorn it into everything though.

Eh. I kinda prefer Hogwarts Legacy doing that rather than asking "are you sure you want to save".

Why would anyone play Hogwarts Legacy?

An every menu has animations for each entry.
