I hope I'm not butting into this convo. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

One of the mmo games I've played allowed you to switch the camera view from 3rd to 1st person. It also allowed you to click on the right mouse button and hold it down and drag it to rotate the view and set a certain angle. And also, scrolling the mouse wheel allowed you to zoom in or out. Of course, you could bind the various functions to keys if you wanted.

I've no idea what camera view Larian is using but hopefully, it won't affect the gameplay. I just hope the camera view won't jerk from one angle to another: scrolling or zooming might be more feasible.

Besides, I think a third person view works better when battling tons of enemies: do you really want to get whacked from behind and have to oh, run around before you can "see" the enemy? Or simply, be able to turn in a direction and target the enemies from behind, the front, on top or even below?
