Let's Flick Through Sammy's Photos from Gamescom and Tokyo Game Show
A gaming journalist shares personal anecdotes and photos from their experiences at Gamescom and the Tokyo Game Show. The piece focuses on the atmosphere of the events, booth exploration, and the author's personal interest in HoYoverse titles.
Why it matters
It offers a behind-the-scenes look at major gaming industry trade shows, reflecting the shift toward more personal, creator-led content in gaming journalism.
I’ve been wanting to share some of my adventures from Gamescom and Tokyo Game Show for weeks now, but I wasn’t really sure how best to package it.
Then, earlier this week while I was out running, I realised I didn’t really need a big overarching theme or some inspirational message – what if I just posted the best bits in a big fat gallery-style article, with anecdotes?
I don’t know how many people will be interested in this, but this is content sitting on the cutting room floor, so I’m going to give it a go.
Also, I think it’s fun to show some of the stuff happening outside of the previews; obviously they’re the meat-and-potatoes of why you come to the site, but we’re trying to be a bit looser and more personal with our content these days, so why not give it a try?
