I'm ( hopefully ) gonna get the game soon to see but I'm guessing by changing the time its only while your in photo mode? Also the photo mode was a little annoying in UC4 to me so I hope its actually better in this one. :/
Also the graphics are insane! You can actually see every little wrinkle in the face and everything. I wonder if the facial features are as silly as the other one I saw with her winking?
I just wish I had it myself already lol, I want to be exploring it too!
The lighting changes actually carry over to the gameplay, lol. So, don't forget to put the lighting back to its default setting, if you want to play the game with the lighting that the game designers intended for it. It imo looks best.
The photomode is the exact same as in UC4 unfortunately, with just a few enhancements, like lighting change and facial expressions. It's true that it feels a bit weird and unresponsive in the beginning, but you get used to it if you use it enough
The facial expressions are really over the top, lol. So much that I don't use them at all. Apart from winking there is also duck face and a couple of other cringy stuff, where Chloe really contorts her face to the max.
Oh, you will be pleased to know that this game is all about exploration. Levels are now huge and treasures, secrets and puzzles are well hidden.
