I wasn't going to post today. It takes me at least two or three hours to put a post together and I wanted to use that time to play games instead. Somehow, though, I managed to play Noah's Heart for so long today I'm actually all played out - and there's still an hour 'til bedtime.
What can I do with an hour, though? As I said, even the simplest post takes me two or three times that long. Ah, but not if I don't write anything!
It's been a while since I did a pure screenshot post. I keep taking pictures by the score. I really ought to use a few, once in a while.
Noah's Heart encourages taking screenshots, too. Not that I need much encouragement. The game has its own version of Guild Wars 2's vistas, only instead of making you climb up something then showing you a cut-scene, you strike a pose and take a selfie.
You get the option to share the shot, for which you get a reward - the first time you do it, at least. I haven't taken up that offer yet. I probably should, if only to find out exactly what happens, when you do.
It also asks if you'd like to save the shot. I always say yes.
Most of the shots in this post were taken that way. They tend to be well-framed, plus the game chooses an emote and removes the whole of the UI, including the character name and the watermark, something I tend to forget.
There's a good photo mode with a solid suite of camera controls and settings. When I remember to use it, I get great screenshots. A few of theshots in this post were taken by me, not the game but other than the ones I took today, I'm not sure I could say for certain which they would be.
I did take a lot of pictures today. I spent most of my time exploring. I've let that side of things slip, lately.
I play Noah's Heart every day for at least an hour but mostly I just do my dailies and the current holiday events and story season. It's really not the best way to spend time.
And I should do more posts like this one. If I did, I'd have more time to play.
I'd like more time to play.
