Maybe you think they’re lame because those are screenshots of an actual game being rendered in realtime, and not just a picture someone drew for a visual novel with some text over it.
But, if you really want to compare the artistic value of a screenshot of a game, one is equivalent to going out in the world with a camera and composing a photo of your natural surroundings, while the other is the equivalent of typing “anime girl” into google images and saving one of them.
Usually it is the same person who post them, if you are bothered by them, just block those two or three users and you won’t ever be bothered by them again.
Personally I hesitated to allow them at first, but it gives a bit more diversity to the community posts, and it doesn’t seem to be a bad things. For now I don’t think it is too much, even with two posters (the original and his… sidekick? 😆), but if the community subscribers start to down-vote it to hell (like was yours), then I’ll ask both of them to redirect those post to a dedicated community, like feddit.uk/c/photomode, linked by @Zahille7
Thanks for your helpful thoughts on blocking :) I’m not that bothered by them, I just find them very boring and wanted to have some fun with this format. Boy, did other people here not find that funny xD makes this entertaining in a different, kind of sad way, I guess. Everybody taking everything so seriously.
Hi, I’m the original guy (or as far as i believe i am). Just to give confirmation to what you said, If ever people get tired of the posts or mods would just prefer i take them elsewhere, just let me know and I’ll move them without any argument
I just block everyone who participates in this dumb idea. Even the people posting to make fun of it. I want to live in a fediverse where this stupid idea never existed.
Yes! Katawa Shouju. I don’t actually like it that much, but as a cultural phenomenon I love it. Everything about it is hilarious in all the wrong ways. It’s perfection.
IMO, as someone who played Alan Wake 1 back to back with Alan Wake 2…don’t do it, AW2 as a game feels sooooo much better in every aspect. Unless your tolerance for jank is really high, the difference in the gunplay alone feels like you’re using two different skillsets.
Well…AW2 didn’t completely get rid of the jank, just made it a smoother part of the gameplay lol.
Also the story of 2 is really heavily related to the ending of AW1, you might just spoil yourself for a big part of the mystery.
It might be the remastered version. I get your point, and the graphics in AW2 were top notch, but as someone who’s not a huge fan of the horror genre, I kind of felt nostalgic for the original game. Wasn’t that frightening 😀
I’ll echo this, and I’ll also say that for me personally the story of AW2 kind of demands focus and I myself would not be able to take it in properly if I was splitting attention - particularly splitting it with its predecessor and having to keep track of what happens in each timeline separately.
I’ve played a bit of Alan Wake II (I had to drop it on launch because it ate through my battery and I couldn’t fit it in), so I’m aware how different the gunplay is. Though I have to say I think I much more prefer the Jank, it has character (though American Nightmare has my favorite controls by far. They feel like a refined version of Alan Wake I’s)
As for the ending of Alan Wake 1 spoiling AW2 this is actually my 4th play through (about. I lost count by this point) so I’m not too worried about spoiling anything because ive already seen the ending a bunch of times
but I thought that might 1) contain too many spoilers (though I doubt there’s many people that haven’t played it)
I actually appreciate that. I only finished New Vegas for the first time last week, just before Echoes of Wisdom came out. Was worried you’d finish before me and I’d end up seeing something spoilery.
I try to avoid posting anything that’s a major spoiler (so a lot of my posts are “here’s X characters” or “here’s a landscape shot of Y location”) and I leave the spoilers too the text so if someone who will be spoiled sees it they can see it and go “oh. That’s a spoiler. I better stop reading”. I’d use the built in spoiler button by for whatever reason my client doesn’t like to register that I press it and typing out the text spoilers by hand is a lot to remember for me.
It is the same book where Jesus walks into the Frisian temple (or something) gurgles Weapons free and starts laying into them merchants selling vapes and abortions.
