What was said about Final Fantasy XV
Prompto's automatic photos make a companion feel characterful without affecting gameplay. Prompto takes photos on his own as the party travels and then presents the album to the player. The photos have almost no gameplay value, but they preserve the player's own journey and build Prompto's character.
Game Maker's Toolkit uses this as an example of companion AI that does more than something to protect or escort. The quote: "This has basically no gameplay value, but is a lovely way of preserving your personal experience with the game."
