I've taken just as many skeleton photos as the next person.Īnd I especially like it when the focus is less on the dead people and more on what's been left behind.īut Fallout doesn't know a butchered mongrel from a beautiful vista, and just statistically it's more likely to throw up one of the former. There are, admittedly, some shots where this works - this is a wasteland, after all. It's a fine way to document the wasteland and its many inhabitants, but when it comes to the loading screens the overabundance of blood and corpses isn't actually reflective of my time in the game, just a side effect of how it's built. So, usually, I've been stuck with capturing the models that are still - the dead ones. Sometimes you can chase around a frog for several minutes to get a lucky snap, but it's still poorly framed and from a weird angle:
Plus, getting into the photo mode at all requires two button presses, so there's absolutely no chance of catching a shot right where you need it. You can't just pop open the camera to have everything stop in place.
But unlike Odyssey, 76's world is online, meaning it's constantly moving. This is a common starting point for me, most recently replicated in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. My first several hours playing this game have mostly been wandering around taking photos. It doesn't exactly make for great memories, but it's not my fault! Let me explain myself. A lot of them are just pictures of dead things.
Except that oftentimes my pictures aren't cool moments. Having a little reminder of a past moment while you're stuck not doing anything else is a nice way of reflecting on cool stuff that's happened in the game. Overall I'm a huge fan of Fallout 76's loading screens, which often select a picture that you've taken in the photo mode to display as you're waiting.
