@BruceCM Sometimes I'll break the immersion of a game like Horizon Zero Dawn, Death Stranding, or Ghost of Tsushima, just to take some good photos. When I get home I'll tag you with some images, I promise my photography skill doesn't stop in the real world.

Yes, if I'm streaming the game it won't be good for potential viewers, but stopping, taking a photo and spending five minutes adjusting the camera, filters and all, is extremely rewarding.

@TheJGG
I'm a screenshot addict but I don't usually use photo mode in games. MH is an exception because I love the game to death and love the monsters and needed to catalog them for the notebook anyways.

Which, in Monster Hunter Rise, time doesn't stand still when you take pics as it does in most games with a camera, and that makes it crazy fun to line up shots.

@JaxonH So there's the classic moment where you photograph an insanely powerful monster in real time only for it to attack and kill you? Sounds legit if you ask me.

@TheJGG That was at IGN which is why she left to go to GameSpot. However she has received a lot of internet abuse, a lot of it from a singular YouTube channel that seems to have a thing about hating women in gaming.

E3 2021 is confirmed to feature Nintendo so I'm going ahead with my prediction that all we see before then in terms of new Nintendo news is NSO overhaul announcement in April and Mario Golf Direct in May.

I don't get gamer fan's love of E3, it's an event for industry insiders but I suppose it's the closes thing to the Oscars/Comic Con/World Cup or whatever for games.

Lol Dude it's weeks worth of info on the one hobby all of us here have an interest in!

@NintendoByNature So? You can't attend it yourself and it just means less news the rest of the time. The Nintendo silence thread has kicked up again already when the last Direct was a few weeks ago, imagine if they just distribute infomation consistently through out the year there would less silence, plus it would also mean less of this winners and losers rubbish that goes on at E3 so the non-major games get more exposure.

Maybe for its first few years. But definitely since the 7th generation it's been catering more to the end user. This has been increasingly the case with livestreams like Nintendo Direct and Treehouse.

Although I see your point that it might be better to have things evenly spread throughout the year...perhaps things will move that was as each company does their own thing anyway?

@jump eh.. yea you can't be there in person. But having all the developers( or most at least) at one event showcasing what's coming in the next year or two always gets me excited. Sitting down in the evening, enjoying a beverage and seeing what's in store is such a good time.

@NintendoByNature Each to their own but the winner/loser thing about E3 makes me dislike it, rubbish trailers with no gameplay get's declared the winner (which even Ninty are guilty of this) whilst other games get left in the shadows. If the purpose of E3 is to highlight games coming soon to create excitement for then then it's fails unless AAA blockbuster type stuff that doesn't really need that exposure if the first place.

@jump I can get behind some of that( the winner/loser thing). It doesn't bother me, but its a bit tailored to that person's thoughts and feelings. I'll say the trailers with no gameplay is quite annoying, but everything else is just pure fun for me. Not knowing what square, capcom, nintendo, platinum etc has In store is fun speculation.

Even trailers with no gameplay excite me.

I get the whole "I want to see what the game actually looks like when playing" and largely agree. But sometimes just knowing a game exists is enough to make me scream like a giddy schoolgirl.

In 2017, when Nintendo announced Metroid Prime 4, I jumped out of my chair at work and started running laps around the lab, screaming, "they did it! They actually did it!".

My 65 year old coworker at the time was not impressed. But I didn't care. Moments like that are rare. The only other time I can remember doing that are for DKC Tropical Freeze when it was announced in 2013, and Monster Hunter Rise when it was announced last fall.

That's actually an example that proves my point ;p

They can't keep this game in stock!

First few days it was a 1 week delay. Then it was a 1-3 week delay. Now? It's a 1-4 week delay.

They can't seem to make them fast enough to keep up.
