What Can You Do in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's Photo Mode?
While the photo mode in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* allows you to take pictures from various positions around Henry, it's quite limited compared to other games. You won't find options to pose or hide characters, change the scene's color tone, adjust the time of day, or insert characters from other parts of the game. It's a basic photo mode, but it's hoped that Warhorse Studios might add more features in future updates.
