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.

It's funny to me that loading times are still the Achilles heel after all these years. Don't get me wrong--it makes sense. Games getting more graphically intense, larger worlds, online play etc, it all adds up. I always just thought that we'd finally see loading times become at least significantly shorter by now--and in scale with the size of the games, they likely have. I guess some things are simply as optimized as they're gonna get, can't just expect magic to happen and make that much computation instantly doable.
The loading times did get better! I think a lot of people who complain either forgot or never player old games on original hardware. I remember minutes long loading screens. What we have now is so much better than the past. Imaging playing a Dark Souls game and waiting 1 minute each time you got defeated. That was my experience with one segment in Dark Messiah of Might and Magic
Exactly. I remember getting up to get a drink/pee during loading screens, and now I just get dehydrated.
Solid state disc drives have definitely made load times much faster. Anyone who has played a PS4 game on PS5 can tell you this.
