Limitations of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's Photo Mode
While the photo mode allows for positional freedom within a certain radius of Henry, its features are currently limited compared to more advanced photo modes in other games. Options like character posing, color grading, time of day adjustments, or the inclusion of other game characters are absent. Hopefully, Warhorse Studios will add these features in future updates.
