The funny thing about retro MMOs is that if you want to play a fifteen-year-old game, you'll probably have to join a shady third-party server because everything official got shut down ages ago, but if you want to play a thirty-year-old game there's a good chance you can just do that, because like half of those cockroach motherfuckers are still being actively maintained. I just saw a YouTube ad for Tibia.

The short answer is... a tilt-shift lens.

The slightly more complicated answer is... Mister Rogers.

Depth of field is the area in front and behind your chosen focus point that remains in focus and then slowly gets blurry as you get farther away.

Shallow depth of field only has a narrow slice of the image in focus and gets blurry super quick. This is caused by a large lens aperture and being close to the subject.

Deep depth of field can extend through the entire picture if your aperture is small and you are super far away.

Usually the depth of field lines up with the image sensor of your camera. So if it is tilted forward, the plane of focus matches.

The stuff outside the green area would be blurry. The edges of the green would be slightly blurry. And the dashed green line would be the sharpest area of the photo.

But the tilt-shift lens allows you to create chaos with your plane of focus. In most cases, you would use this to flatten the depth of field so you can get a 2D plane entirely in focus.

If you were to use a normal lens, the bottom left and top right would be blurry.

But with a tilt-shift lens you can do this.

The green area is taking a little nap on the floor.

However, there is an unintended side effect created by this lens. (The "Scheimpflug intersection" if you want to go down the rabbit hole.) You can choose absolutely wacky planes of focus that create a very narrow depth of field over a geographically large area.

Believe it or not, this is when psychology comes into play.

And possibly Mister Rogers.

Our only reference for such a large area having a shallow depth of field is our memories of miniatures on TV. So Mister Rogers and Thomas the Tank Engine trained our brains to see this effect as... small.

Depth of field shrinks the closer you are to something. And when filming miniatures, you are placing the lens close to the scene. But the scene represents something big in our minds. We buy the effect, but not 100%. That blurriness wouldn't be there at a regular scale. So our subconscious remembers we are watching small things pretending to be big. It just files that away in the back of our mind.

And then when we see something like this...

Our brain is all, "Look at all that tiny shit!"

Without Mister Rogers, our brains may have never made these connections and tilt-shift photography may just make us wonder why everything is all blurry. That connection to past experience is vital for this effect to be convincing.

Brains are neat.

Love this blog, asked several questions- but can you PLEASE stop tagging every single post with sniperscout? I've never ever seen an ask blog that tags every single ask- it's bad form and clogs up the tags. Maybe just tag an answer once every couple of days? Or switch the tags to mugsncans for people to track if they want to? I'm just dyin out here trying to navigate my tags, and I don't wanna block you because like I said, i do like that blog.

Alright, I don’t know the ins and outs of running an ask blog. ‘Bad form’ is a bit rude when simple advice would suffice…

I also do see ask blogs tag every ask…one I follow myself tags every ask, as far as I can see. I also am tagging less asks with sniperscout…I tag the ones with sniperscout that have sniperscout interactions in the ask. Someone suggested that I be more specific, I was.

But if people think it is better I not tag it at all for the majority, then I suppose I will do that.

I will stop posting asks for a bit now because this sort of thing stressed me out a day or two before. Sorry ya’ll if my posts have been clogging your tags.
