Warning: Major Spoilers for FInal Fantasy VII
The Nintendo Switch version of the PS1 classic JRPG FInal Fantasy VII was recently updated to lift a restriction the game had on screen capture during certain scenes.
Switch players are able to click the capture button on their controllers to either take screenshots or record 30 seconds worth of video footage to be saved and then shared to social media or to a mobile device.
But certain games on Switch, like Xenoblade Chronicles 2, outright lack the video capture feature, while others, such as Persona 5 Royal, prohibit both the screenshot and video capture functionalities during specific moments of the story.
Final Fantasy VII is of the latter kind, and its restriction comes about halfway into the game in a moment that is so well-known that it's practically common knowledge:
Aerith's death is the moment in question. The flower girl meets her end at the hands of Sephiroth, setting off the events of Disc 2 as Cloud and his comrades are forced to fight on without her at their side.
Screen capture was originally prohibited during all the cutscenes surrounding her death and the end of DIsc 1, but the ban has now been lifted in version 1.03.
The same restrictions were present on other platforms and have all been removed.
It may have something to do with the release of FInal Fantasy VII Rebirth earlier this year, but details have been scarce.
