I didn't follow the storyline. Instead, I decided to check on the open world first. And I noticed this photographic contest where I decided to make my entry. So, I tried the photo mode of this game to capture some good photos that should work fine for wallpapers.

Thanks to @rashed.ifte for suggesting me the justify align code.

The special effects, filters, or presets that I have accessed in the photo mode, they are amazing. Look at this photo, where I tried snowfalls. And I tried a pose for my character, where he was carrying his umbrella when it was snow falling. Such a nice touch.

I tried a preset on this one. It is named "A Warrior's Journey".

I tried "Keen Eyes" preset on this one.

I didn't like the way I could use the effects or different poses for my character. But I didn't like that the photo mode doesn't get the vivid colors that we see in the open world or in gameplay. When I open the photo mode, I need to color grade. Otherwise, they look so dull.

"Across the Distance" was a preset I used on this photo. Here I was using different presets but I was not just capturing what I was getting. I was still tweaking some angles or some focuses maybe.

This preset is called "Elegance's Song", where my character posed with a Chinese hand fan. I should mention, I was still at the same spot for all these photos above and some below.

"Moonlit Flute" is one of my favorite presets because it gives a beautiful vibe. My character plays a flute in the moonlit night. I didn't even have to change the day times in this. The preset did it all.

And this is the "Silent Whisper" preset, which gives a gloomy mood to the character. In this preset, the character's pose tells me he's ready for a good fight

This is the last preset that I tried for now, and this is called "Rainbound Wanderer". These are all standard presets. I may try some popular or player-made presets later. So this one in black and white also looks cool, right?

I engaged with some enemies later, though I was sad to see that I couldn't try the photo mode while fighting. But I got to capture this photo when the enemy was a little far from me, and he didn't detect me yet.
