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.

Create FOMO for players so they continuously check in and play to unlock stuff so they never miss out on an opportunity

FOMO. The answer is FOMO. buy the skin now, it won't be here forever.

The current fascination with skins and cosmetics is hilarious. It’s ridiculous that people continue to put money and time into a game mechanic that was already perfected with the catboy costume. If you’re playing a game and you aren’t using a free catboy costume, why are you even playing that game? Secondarily, your opinion is worthless, stop wasting drive space on my internet by posting it.

Play Deep Rock Galactic. If you want a Halloween hat from 4 years ago. This Halloween will have new hats, and all the previous hats. All the gear is like that.

Rock and Stone!!!!

Devs are like that because publishers says they should do it. And publishers are like that because people keep buying and paying for all that shit. So in the end they are like that because of OP who contributes to the FOMO and wants to throw money at them for cosmetics.

Devs have nothing to do with that decision
