Talk:The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit

Screenshot
Say, you've been here long enough to follow WP:BRD. I'm saying it isn't needed, it's your burden to show it should be there. In the meantime you should undo your revert.

A random screenshot does not add anything that can't be explained by text. What does the image show? The back of the main character, standing near a mailbox in a snowy landscape in front of house. No gameplay, no extraordinary graphics or design. See WP:VGIMAGES: "Screenshots are used to illustrate the game's graphics and gameplay. They illustrate points that can not be adequately covered by text" and "editors should also consider if a game's screenshot is necessary if the game concepts are straightforward. For example, many first-person shooters or racing games share very common user interface elements and are otherwise unremarkable from each other, so a screenshot for such games could be omitted if there is no significant commentary on the gameplay or art style." This image is unnecessary. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 08:40, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Hallo Soetermans,
 * the current "gameplay" section of the article isn't very helpful when trying to figure out what the game actually looks like. It could be a text adventure, an isometric Infinity-like game, a 2.5 D adventure such as Syberia - the article doesn't tell. As long as the "gameplay" section doesn't enable the reader to imagine how the game actually looks like, the screenshot is very, very helpful. In my opinion, that is.

I believe that a screenshot is useful here, but we need a better one. The current screenshot does not show much. QuicoleJR (talk) 19:47, 16 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I agree with QuicoleJR, this is an issue of the screenshot being a bad depiction of the game. Just as an example, something like this depicts the actual UI and means by which the player interacts with the game, which actually is useful to demonstrate gameplay. Edit: The initial screenshot does show it too, on closer inspection, it's just not very obvious. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 20:03, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Agreed, a screenshot that depicts both the graphics style and the UI in a better way that the current one does would be better than the current one and would make the current one obsolete. Kind regards, Grueslayer 23:21, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
