Late last week, publisher Koei Tecmo Games released GUST’s latest JRPG Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy onto the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and Steam. With each supported platform having its own means of capturing screenshots, I was delighted to see that a Photo Mode was incorporated into the game. I look forward to capturing more photos of Reisalin “Ryza” Stout’s adventures in Ashra-am Baird!
Take That (In-Game) Snap Daily Photo is an off-shoot of the Take That (In-Game) Snap article series. This looks at, celebrates and critiques how video game developers have implemented professional photography-like systems into their games. It will cover how the systems handle, just how accessible they are and, where applicable, how a modding community might be making these tools even better.
With this Daily Photo spin-off series, I will be sharing individual photos from the games either covered or soon-to-be-covered in the series.
