Some console games like Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Uncharted: Lost Legacy have the option to apply various filters to the gameplay that drastically change the game's original look. As mentioned above with ReShade presets and Freestyle overlays for PC players, your photos are already edited before you even capture them. For newer games, would using RTXOn be considered too overpowered because it drastically improves the lighting, water, and reflections compared to consoles? I have seen official Twitter pages of studios and games liking and retweeting photos captured using all of the above tools: official and unofficial. When you apply these official filters/presets, your shots are no longer 'organic'. If the argument against editing is to 'preserve what the game actually looks like', then would photomode's filters not allowed? Many official photomodes include built-in filters/presets using these is technically no different than using filters on Instagram or Snapseed to edit your screenshots. We don't often see a piece of clothing/hair goes right through a character's throat or their armor bending if they crouch down in real life, but clipping exists in every single game. These problems are unique to VP because the environment is virtual.

How would VPs be able to take pictures of those NPCs outside of cutscenes? In other cases, the outfit(s) that you want is locked in a cutscene and there's no mod available to obtain it. In a lot of cases, non-player characters (NPCs) don't appear in-game at all, except for cutscenes. Unlike in real life, the character models in cutscenes look BETTER than the in-game models because they are mo-capped (motion captured), so it's understandable that some VPs want to capture that.

However, there's nothing wrong with capturing cutscenes shots to remember those special in-game moments. Think of it like taking a screenshot of a movie.

Similar to real world photography, VPs also have to work for that perfect composition, lighting, and colors to convey the emotions and/or message(s) in a particular shot. Screenshots from cinematic cutscenes with the default camera angles are often frown upon because VPs don't contribute to that creative process.
