with the advent of ssd tech, they're all but gone now

no loading screen stays up long enough to provide anything more than a quick quote, when before they might have a lot of info or even a mini-game

there was a charm to it

i would probably actually hate to have it but the idea of it is nostalgic to me

will probably come back as games gain more graphic fidelity and become larger, tho

I absolutely do not miss them, (near) instant loading into the game and fast travel are both glorious. I have played a couple games though with an option to not allow the loading screen to progress without the player pressing a button which is a pretty neat idea for people who do wish to see them and the tips that are usually there.

Honestly given how long Skyrim & Fallout 4 would take to load given how long you've been playing/how far your character is, there's nothing that could make me mourn them.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

They tried bringing back manuals. Turns out if you weren't a kid during that period it isn't actually a thing to care about unless it's something like Tunic.

I don't. Nothing kills the pace of a game like a long loading screen after a death.

Waiting for each Act to install was a pain in the dick tho. But I did like seeing Snake smoke while all these weird messages popped up

Not sure how you or the other person intended their post, however Starfield loading screens on the Sexbox are almost instant. It lasts only seconds.

I think it was more that sure loading may be fast everything still has a loading screen. That's why I was laughing and from a review I saw on the PC version I believe it was.

Ah ok.

My friend told me that there's a mod that basically gets rid of the loading screens, haven't installed it myself.

I remember the PS2 Leisure Suit Larry knew you would have so many loading screens they offered sexier loading screens as unlockables.

I will say I actually like how the Divine Beasts in BotW were separate loading zones. I wish the temples in TotK were too. Idk, there was something special about the dungeons being their own closed-off areas. And in the Divine Beasts, it was cool you could look outside but know you were in a separate area.

Or Fallout 4.

I swear the loading screens are 5 minutes+ sometimes and my PC is really good.
