    You take screenshots less than before?

    Well I play wow since 2005. I took a look at my Screenshot folder and I noticed that there's A LOT of them from vanilla and WOTLK.

    Most of them were actually taken when I was playing with my friends, derpin' around, role playing or doing killing bosses that didn't feel trivial or faceroll.

    So my point is, nowadays I almost don't take screenshots anymore, somehow I feel that the game makes the player feel too ordinary about their achivements for example:
    "hey man! check this out! I dropped that very cool mount"
    and the person awnsers:
    "yeah but who cares, gratz for being the #99999999".

    The question is: do you take more or less screenshots the more you play? why?

    I still take screenshots if the moment is screenshot worthy. Such as achievements/rare mounts and stuff like that, even funny guild/raid moments.

    Yes, usually when I hit awesome numbers in something so I can look back. I used to giggle about 400k health on the Baleroc 25m fight...now my tank has 650k buffed. I have tons from Wrath onward.

    That's so sad D: I feel awesome when I take a look at some SS that I took at funny/cool moments, but now the game don't motivates us to.

    I only take SC of Guild Boss kills, have been since TBC, still doing it since this day. Other than that, I see no reason to SC anything lol.

    I never take screenshots unless it is for a specific purpose. I never just took random screenshots of whatever and Ive been playing MMOs for almost ten years now.

    Are you seriously trying to imply that not taking screenshots means the game has gotten worse?

    People often go picture happy over something for awhile and then the shine wears off. Almost anybody that has a friend that has their first kid can tell you this. You get a billion pictures in the first few months. By the time they have a 2nd child you almost never get anything unless it is a holiday or something else like that.

    I have a lot of 'accidental' screenshots.

    I took screenshots of my dk's stats before 5.0. goes live. Sadly, I lost those screenshots. Would have liked to see the shots again to compare to my present stats.

    I remember getting excited when stuff would proc and I'd break 10k strength. Now my unbuffed strength is 21.5k as unholy, so I can imagine the difference still. I do have a lot of screenshots on my home PC of proc'd strength in T12 and T13 raids

    I don't think my use of screenshots has changed, though there was a large influx of them right before the Cata world changes patch, for obvious reasons.
