I just think it’s a neat little addition that gives you that, “ahhhhhhhhh, I remember that!” feeling.

Once I noticed that I started using it to make nice, personalized loading screens. It's also a bit of a cheat tool since it allows you to stop time and look around with free camera. Very useful for the Ryujin Industry stealth quest

You can also use it to scout planets! Just raise the camera to its limit and look around the space. It’s such an awesome feature.

I haven't played starfield (here from all), is stealth not as broken as other bethsoft games? Or is it just an extra tool you can get on top of op stealth

[-] Zahille7@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

This time around, stealth is "locked" behind the Stealth skill. You can still sneak around without it, but it's basically like having your sneak at 1 in Elder Scrolls. People will notice you immediately, and you won't have a "hidden/detected" indicator unless you invest in the skill at all.

Cool, I really need to take some pictures now. Most of the planets I visited look like barren wasteland though... maybe I can find some interesting sunrises at least.

[-] Zahille7@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, the rocky planets and moons are mostly just for the horizons. But there are some really nice ones.

Any gas giant with rings, for example. They always look nice imo.

This is one of the first games I’ve taken time to stop and take time to use the photo mode because of this feature

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

i believe fallout 76 also does this

[-] Hoxton@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I have a sneaking suspicion that other players photos are appearing as loading screens as well. Some of them just look a bit more like gameplay than offical.

Not sure if this in confirmed or not, I’ve just been thinking about it for a while.

That's cool, it's a shame that on Linux taking photos in photo mode doesn't work, nothing gets saved to the gallery.

It got fixed in the latest build of proton experimental

[-] H2207@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Oh brilliant, thanks.

I took a photo of a guy in Akila City who looks like CJ (the San Andreas CJ, not the New Atlantis CJ). Now I sometimes see him as a load screen.

Is this pc only? I heard it a few times but don't see the same on Xbox series s

[-] Mr_Buscemi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

It's all showing up on my Series X
