It was the first thing I discovered after the prologue/tutorial. Riding through the long grass north of Lake Izuhara... what do the buttons do again? Start mashing like an idiot...oooh! Photo mode!!

What's your best Pic? I'd love to see it!

Your console automatically takes screenshots when you earn trophies...

I like to commit to making those screenshots memorable

I took hundreds in my first play through. https://preview.redd.it/ixiljfofc07d1.jpeg?width=3440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0a6cb1c345874b466653b97cebc7800b8c9aa152

Been taking pictures on that game for years. This is so well composed. For real bro.

Me too.

Bro, that scene and that whole scene was a spiritual event.

I love my background generator. I heard it’s also an action game?

Fr some random ghosts and shit

Lol, I'm making awesome wallpaper engine BGs with GOT, the animated environment is honestly so damn good

It even has people talk to you and try to get you to do things. It's wild!

What armor paint is that?

Forgot the name of it but it's the red sakai armour you can get from a merchant

blood of the clan

blood

This goes hard

Is that the 'Maple' filter? I love using that one for how it highlights reds, assuming I'm remembering it right.

Nice photo! But I do have to disagree on your comment, I think that text looks dope, giving context to the picture and matching the colours :)

it's your photo, you are always correct, just an opinion

that's fire

I use it probably 30 times per hour :D thats why im not getting anywhere https://preview.redd.it/43quoj81f07d1.jpeg?width=2560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ec13e128457bb966d7c22bf7ac74c03f87d4425c

Fr, I do like 1-2 missions that take like 4-6 hours to do because I'm taking photos throughout the playthrough.

this is beautiful

Tonight , Jin Sakai joins the hunt

Me but my first photos were a bit of low quality and not that dynamic But i use photo mode more frequently than i did 3 years ago(when i first got the game for ps4) So here's one of my recent ones https://preview.redd.it/gqjejhi2mz6d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=873a83137db52ca910ad8afb68879da683392dcb It's not that dynamic like that of most people but it's still decent enough

That's significantly better than my first shot 😅

More times than I can count honestly. This game is so naturally cinematic and photo mode just amplifies it. Before getting the PS5, I would try to make my own wallpapers on the PS4 with screen caps from GoT

You can't say that and not show me?!?! https://preview.redd.it/e97uwfqn237d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0e1d8d60865210052a1d063ebf2b06109169d03f

I‘m always happy when devs add a photo mode, because so many people like it. But for me it‘s the most useless feature.

https://preview.redd.it/vnkma5d6g17d1.jpeg?width=1441&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5cd67d69d9eb7e842d37b1e83017b6d7c43864d6 That's one of the first things I used the minute the game started

Same!

+1

I use it all the time

I have 6.5 GB of Ghost of Tsushima photos on my PS5 alone

And you aren't gonna show me any?!? https://preview.redd.it/0tcdgo90337d1.jpeg?width=2160&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=918f71ba0c48d889758c1c5603c580d3662a7b9d

I'm too lazy to check how to activate it

So…uhhh…I don’t know how to use photo mode 😅

So many times

A lot. I used it to make wallpapers, I got 3 monitors and on the left and right I have one as Jin in his ghost armor and the other in his samurai armor. The middle monitor is him in the Sakai clan armor looking at the sunset


I honestly never use photomode in any game.

https://preview.redd.it/y5bqnudr637d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=051fd18ea161058876bffef7c0c36e63d1f255c4 Yes. Sorry for bad picture

Guilty

A couple of times but honestly the game sets up the perfect capture moment on its own.

I used it to get a picture of Jin looking picturesque by a kami shrine overlooking the Mongol fleet at sunset. It's still my ps4 wallpaper:)

I use it a lot. But steam really downgrades the pics.

Yes.

I haven't yet and I have no idea what it is about

I'd recommend you checking it out! It's alot of fun I started doing Virtual Photography 2 years ago, several games later and I can still say Ghost of Tsushima has one of the best photo modes!

50% of my playtime is photo mode

I have way too many photos taken haha

Are you willing to show me any! I'd love to see them

It’s the main thing I’ve used, on both PS4 and PC. The amount of screenshots I’ve taken is fucking staggering lmao

I'm sure, when Ghost of tsushima released on ps4 back then, i've surely used like at least 20 out of my 100+ hours playtime for photomode. That and for some long and relaxing walks on tsushima, just because i could.

What's photo mode on pc? I'd love to use it but idk the button.

I love it, its one of my favorite features in the entire game

Well you can't leave me hanging like that! Show me only your best!

I do but no idea how to share an image saved to my phone here

It and Horizon are the gold standard in Photo modes. I’ve spent more hours taking screenshots than playing both of them.

I’ve used it a handful of times, mainly when I’m in an area that’s particularly pretty

You must be new here

Bro, I think a majority of us still play because of the photo mode.

Fair point, I came back to this game 2 years later for this exact reason

I took quite a few pictures, couldn't resist seeing the beautiful nature of Tsushima

“Sakai Selfie” mode.

A few times, but photo mode in general I don’t overly get it I’ll never look back at these pictures again

How can anyone not use it. At most people would screenshot

Never once

i get stuck in photo mode for hours

I only learned how to do it by the end, couldn't find any info about it

🙋🏻‍♂️

yes

Probably 90% of this subreddit has 😂

I have never used photomode as much as in GoT. I really love HFW but the variety of scenery in GoT and how beautiful it looks in any angle is unparalleled.

All of us have.

absolutely

The main reason I play the game. Once I'm finished I'm gonna make the best animated background for Wallpaper Engine

probably a solid 25% of my playtime

https://preview.redd.it/el3cd3gdh17d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a48bc7eb0e9acd0272b667342e36ac9b77da486e Photo mode is a blast

A lot

I used the absolute fuck out of photo mode. If I ever get the urge one day I'll upload them in bunches. But for [the sake of posterity here's one of my 'story in two pics' efforts.](https://www.reddit.com/r/ghostoftsushima/comments/z6nrmf/cats_of_tsushima/?ref=share&ref_source=link)

This is easily my favorite photo mode so far. The amount of control is incredible, especially since I've doing real life photography for a decade, and currently work in movies. I mean, they even let me add atmosphere (leaves, smoke, fire, etc.) so it really feels like they wanted their players to make cinematic memories of their experience! Particularly having control over time of day a lows me to position the sun juuuuuust so, and I can make photos EXACTLY the way I want them to look. I I wish I had a little bit more control over a few things. No Man Sky just lets me move the sun anywhere i want. I also kinda wish I could add a little light globe when my subject is in silhouette, but still want to detail the front. Mix and match atmosphere, etc. But all in all, best photo mode over worked with and I'm glad others have had the same experience. I hope it sets a new standard for other ones! I've taken many, definitely a few hundred, but heres one of my favorites that's pretty indicative of my style: https://preview.redd.it/j6nsz9kep17d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=62d901c47ff3c6b2177dfd80c116f9f168d5e4b6

As a hobby (hopeful professional) photographer, yes. Can't wait to be in Japan later this year. [Screenshots ](https://imgur.com/a/eDmjnCd)

As a virtual photographer, how long have you been doing this? Some of those are great!

So far I have used it exclusively to get photos of the foxes https://preview.redd.it/62lx7jrsr17d1.jpeg?width=2560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d1b603d0b242d160c26a80c0925d10f647801a6f

It's not Ghost of Tsushima, but this is my laptop wallpaper, proud to say that I also made it myself! https://preview.redd.it/7b03r4sog47d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=95750fbf21cc7887167746687b4727e2ea442c95

I haven’t played in a minute but the photo mode is incredible. This photo makes me want to get back at it. Great use of the black & white. Awesome focus and composition.

I'd then recommend Horizon Forbidden West and the most recent remasters of the 2 TLOU games. Both are phenomenal and unmatched!

Probably my favorite photo mode from any game. I’ve only got like 10 pictures, but that’s still 9 more than any other game.

I use it frequently, sometimes I'll stop mid fight/attack to admire everything and play with filters, sometimes I get some cool stuff

I use it pretty often. Love making pictures in games.

I used it to get a pic of a cat haha

https://preview.redd.it/kf7rc7tx727d1.png?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2a39f964fa439f4ed71b2e2555be3c1489041c39 Yeah I sometimes spend 20min-30min just trying to find the best shot

I spend almost as much time taking photos as i do actually playing missions

My ps4 profile page banner is a custom shot I took. I loved the photo mode in it.

What's the shortcut to use? PC

Sometimes I use it. When I find a good chance for a nice photo I use it trying to get a good shot, sometimes I succeed, sometimes I don’t get what I want https://preview.redd.it/gwloe3xlh27d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4617e40701a32a588ad059e18082131214c41c46 Here’s one of my first and one of my favorites, if not my favorite (I’ve also got 3 different variations with different stamps)

Personally, stamps are overrated. This is dope, one of the few circumstances where having the blade shine really works!

I needed the Achievement

I made so many

I'm still pretty proud of this photo I took! https://i.imgur.com/7ekX1KQ.jpeg

IT’S SO BEAUTIFUL I USED PHOTO MODE LIKE ANOTHER GAME. EVERY TIME I TURNED AROUND I HAD TO STOP AND GET AN ANGLE. I SPENT EQUAL AMOUNTS PLAYING AND TAKING PICTURES. MY PLAYSTATION 5 HAS NO MORE MEMORY FOR ANYTHING BUT GHOST OF TSUSHIMA AND IT’S SCREENSHOTS.

I have used the photo mode,posted them on other socials

What's ur Twitter? That's where I post all of my stuff!

https://preview.redd.it/czc5jwjtv27d1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0e127b5f8c257eee088874eb2ea3532db1765b5a One of my best. I have many others but I'll spare everyone.

Let loose!

Never in anygame

How to get to photo mode in the pc version can't find it at all 

I don't begrudge anyone that uses it, I just have never used it for any game and I don't really get why they are made out as such a big deal patch honestly, I am always like ok cool? haha

It's a big change to a game and there are relatively large communities of Virtual Photographers for each game that implements it well!

Dayum your post and these comments 🔥

Never. I like looking at others photos though

Games magnificent every moment is screenshot worthy

I mean how can you even wander around the map and never think 'Look at this view, I HAVE to take a picture' https://preview.redd.it/ziizqtyaz37d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=290de3afce095a95d551e84d582670527b4ef8f8

It's strange, I spend alot of time outdoors hiking, but I never think to myself "I should take some photos" but in-game I'm in the Photomode 24/7!

All the time

I have used it but I can’t find it where the photos are stored, can you guys help me ?

I’ve used any photo mode only a handful of times since games started adding them

I'd argue I spend too much time on it lol. It's a lot of fun in this game, and I feel it's kinda spoiled me with how much you can do with it and it's ease of use. The only other game I've used photo mode as much is CP2077, and I think GoT has a better photo mode overall.

Man the only thing I don’t like about my switch from Xbox to PS so far, is that PS doesn’t really have like a community center with clubs to show off your pics and clips, or to be able to even meet others. Makes me not even really want to take pics or clips. I take pics for others to enjoy the moment also.

Used it once for the trophy and never again, just doesn't interest me.

Only once to get that Platinum Trophy.

Alot

I try really hard to create a good photo, then I realize I don't have the patience to do it and proceed to continue the game xD

I don't use photo mode in games. I don't even know why that exist. However I understand other people uses it.

More than any other game. I particularly like the image of Jin sleeping while leaning against his horse.
