Greetings Devs and other adventurers,

Since the launch of EA, I have had many issues with the camera panning. It seems to want to lock itself at various intervals making it impossible to pan around the area. I have checked my settings many times to ensure that camera panning was still enabled, and it was. The only workaround I have for it at this time is to either use the WASD keys or the directional arrow keys in order to "unlock" the camera from its position thus enabling camera panning once again. However, this only works for a limited time because, after a cutscene, loading into a new area, interacting with certain objects, or a host of other things will once again lock the camera so that you can not pan around the map with just the mouse. Not sure if this is a known issue or not but I just wanted to bring it to your attention. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication, this game is going to be great when it's done.

This occurs for me as well. I get around it by single clicking another NPC portrait in the party and then single clicking on my character again. The click area is not very big so sometimes it takes a couple tries. Looking forward to a fix as well but yeah I'm having fun so far.

Camera issues are my biggest problem with this game. I've had to force myself to keep playing as the camera issues have made me want to abandon the game. The camera needs to auto follow the main Character, maybe auto turn. Panning needs to be enabled holding down the right mouse key/trigger and while held down being able to spin the screen. at the moment I'm using Alt + A and Alt + D but it's messy and slow.
