Limitations of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's Photo Mode

Currently, the photo mode's features are somewhat limited. While you can freely position the camera around Henry within a certain range, options like character posing, color grading, time of day adjustments, or character placement are absent. Hopefully, Warhorse Studios will expand these features in future updates.

Despite its current limitations, the inclusion of a photo mode is a welcome addition, allowing players to capture the game's beauty.
