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.

Has the person who invented the depth of field effect for a video game ever even PLAYED a game before?
What is the depth of field option? When it's on what happens vs when it's off?
Side question, why the fuck does everything in IT reuse fucking names? Depth of field means how far from character it'll render the environment, right? So if the above option only has an on or off option then it is affecting something other than the actual depth of field, right? So why the fuck would the name of it be depth of fucking field??? I see this shit all the time as I learn more and more about software related shit.

It's not "IT" naming. It's physics. Probably a century or few old. That's what they're trying to emulate to make things like more photographic/cinematic.
Same with almost all the other options listed.
