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.

I'm not down for these kinds of games, either. Short, linear experiences with little to no agency are, IMO, barely even games. I tend not to spend my money on games that I will play through once in like 8 hours, and then never touch again except maybe years later out of nostalgia.

Personally that's the dream game for me. I haven't got time for hundreds of mid-tier grinding hours. Give me something with emotional impact and an absorbing world that lasts at most 10 hours.

If I want just gameplay I'll just play one of numerous ranked games to get that fix

I play these for the story, and the story in Stray was great.

This isn’t a telltale game and has more of an open world element which shakes it up a bit.

All in all, I really enjoyed the game and I generally would say exactly what you did.
