[Finished - We have a winner!] IconEra's monthly game screenshot competition

[rofif]

Remember the rules guys:

- NO in-game cutscenes of any kind

- NO Photomode screen captures

- MUST BE IN-GAME GAMEPLAY ONLY

wait... you got it wrong
Photomode is perfectly fine. That's what the thread is about !
Just must be in gameplay photo mode or just normal gameplay. Not cutscene shots and not cutscene photomode (you can enable photo mode in some games cutscenes and remove characters so it is debatable). Maybe if you can use noclip to fly around and get different angle in cutscene is also good.
you know.. just no straight up shots from cutscenes that are no effort and the same in each game

Am I messing something ?
Otherwise we will get a bunch of shots with HUD and so on.

Well I thought it was in gameplay only. Otherwise you basically have a cutscene screenshot. It's MUCH harder to produce a beautiful gameplay scene.

@Sircaw , @TubzGaming , @Darth Vader , @DoctaThompson, @PropellerEar - what do you guys think?

As long as it is Genuine gameplay it is allowed, no cutscene shots or stills from cutscene photo mode.

We want authentic game play as in the player is playing the game and takes a snap.

Has to be in-game, No cut-scenes.
Photo Mode is aloud as we want to try get some really nice shots.
Like mine was taken with photo mode so i could pose how i wanted it and zoomed in for effect.

@DoctaThompson don't you dare disappoint me.

 

[Sircaw]

On a slightly different note @DynamiteCop, it must feel strange to have 5 positive reactions (thumbs up etc) from people for a change, must feel good.


Sorry, Born bad

Updated my contest post.
@Sircaw edition

 

[Sircaw]

Should there be a rule to not include screenshots from the cutscenes?
You know, only gameplay/photo mode maybe ?
Do I go for art or for entertainment.... difficult decisions.

New shot

Anyway. I took a winner beginning of this year.

Not getting the time to game as much, so submitting an older photo I took in Horizon Forbidden West on March 1, 2022.

This is in-game, not a cutscene, taken on PS5. Original content. I hope y'all will like it.

That's err, rather good, FFS.

Is it sunset or dawn,( say Dawn as you get bonus points for the games name)

Was that a random shot you took as it looks rather beautiful or did you plan ahead for that moment?

It was kind of random. I was doing that mission in which you have to bring down this Tallneck, and I thought I could click a photo like this. This shot kind of lined up on its own with a little bit of effort.

And it's Horizon Forbidden Sunset.

-no photoshop. Just raw out of game photo

Is that your final entry? Not sure if gifs are allowed.
Meanwhile I am sitting on few cool tlou shots… but honestly I am afraid that by the end of the month everyone will be sick of seeing tlou shots
