Photos are images that can be can be created by the player, saved to their photo roll, and converted to Masterworks that can be hung on the walls of the Abbey.
Photobooth and Photo Mode[]
Photos are created using Photobooth and Photo Mode. These are two similar systems that allow the player to design their own customized images within the game.[1]
Photobooth[]
Photobooth allows players to create customized comic book covers using elements from the game and comics, with a variety of effects.
Photo Mode[]
Photo Mode allows players to take enhanced screenshots during gameplay, with control over the camera's positioning and the ability to add various elements and effects.
Options[]
Both modes operate in a similar manner and provide many of the same options. The primary difference is that Photo Mode is meant to capture what is actually taking place in the game, whereas Photobooth allows the player to design their own scene. For example, Photo Mode does not allow new characters to be placed into the scene, but Photobooth does. Both modes allow facial expressions to be changed, filters and effects to be applied, and text or word balloons to be added.
