What Can You Do in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s Photo Mode?
Currently, the photo mode in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* is somewhat limited. You can adjust the camera's position within a certain radius around Henry, but that's about it. Unlike other games, which offer extensive customization options such as posing characters, altering color tones, or changing the time of day, *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* keeps it simple.
