Is there any kind of 1st person view in Death Stranding?

Just curious, as I might be diving into this game soon myself...

Is there any kind of 1st person view that you can use to play through this game? If so, please tell me how.

Below is an old article confirming that there would be a 1st person perspective to be featured in Death Stranding, but I am not able to find any other documentation that confirms it's there.

If there's not a 1st person mode per se, does the photo mode in the game feature a functionality that allows for a HUDless and Reedus-less view of the landscape in motion?

Any insight would be much appreciated.

Yeah, that seems to be something that was removed. The only first person is the mode you can toggle for making markers appear, setting signs, checking the compass and checking on BB.

Actions pull you out of it.

Makes sense, really. Need the spatial awareness. And being able to see weight shifting in what you're carrying would be harder to convey in first person.

And yes, there's a photo mode. F8 by default.

Understood. Well thank you for your response, Seamus. Basically, I was wanting to find a good backdrop-scene that stays animated but without a HUD or Norman Reedus in view for some green-screen stuff I'm looking to do (for shiggles).

Well ok...since you asked...I'm trying to Frankenstein a scene together for an epic guitar-solo taking place near a bleak-looking running waterfall in a music video I'm working on! A little cheesy, yes, but the nature of my vision for the video is appropriately so.

Thanks again.

The photo mode is based on the one from horizon zero dawn, so it's got a ton of options. Might be able to figure something out. People have done some pretty nice shots with it.

Sweet. I'll go in optimistic then and see what I can do. Thank you again for taking the time to help me, as I am away from home where my gaming PC is for work and couldn't wait to get back to find out for myself (a few days still remain).

Here's some great captures one of our Porters was doing. I think it may have been an additional capture program they used.
