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.

Shout out to my TF2 clan. You were the best friends I ever had. 🫡

I definitely feel this way about gaming online. I miss Microsoft Ants.

Anecdotal, you still learn people and you can build a community reputation playing PvP in FFXIV. We don't get to choose the map, and you'll still see some people only once, but you get to know who's who. The problem is, it's not as fast as fortnite or other games. Which is a large turn off for many. But the slower (just barely slower) pace is more forgiving towards people that are middle aged and can't compete with top tier fortnite/ League of Legends, etc types.

That’s more because few people seriously PvP in FFXIV, so you naturally end up randomly queued with the same people repeatedly.

So this was definitely not my experience in the pre-matchmaking era of online multiplayer. Possible case of rose-tinted glasses?

I agree that matchmaking has problems, but going back to what was there before are unlikely to be a net positive I think
