The group pose screenshot tool in
Final Fantasy XIV is pretty darn powerful, since it lets you change color filters, add lighting sources, add frames and borders, loop emote animations, and spin the camera all over. About the only thing it can’t do is allow a perfect loop of your character using a battle action to get that perfect cool shot of your character raining doom upon a target… at least, it can’t do that
yet. When
Stormblood launches,
actions are being added to the command, and you can pause the animations as well to capture that perfect shot.
The tool is also adding new color filters, frames, and overlays to allow your shots to look like everything from a quick instant camera shot to a carefully rendered cinematic still. In short, players will be able to be the perfect in-game shutterbugs they always knew they could be. Who doesn’t like dramatic poses for battle as a screenshot option?
