If anything bad has happend to good old Aleroth I'll call the responsibles and each member of their race with them!
Well, if you played Beyond Divinity you might remember one sequence where you're looking for a crystal fragment in Rivellon (you're in the cursed abbey I believe) and a witch mentions how evil paladins had massacred everyone in Aleroth!
You do get to take revenge on them though (kind of). There was one other instance, too, where you were revisiting the farmlands, and they were all flooded and filled with lizard people. Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing some familiar locations (and maybe faces) too, but of course, it should be different enough to not feel too 'samey.'
Back to the original topic of the thread, thanks to the new screenies I guess we don't have to worry about it being first person (did we ever, really?) And games like the Witcher have shown that isometric is still viable in a fully 3D world. Speaking of which, the Witcher has made me grudgingly admit that an over-the-shoulder viewpoint with the character controlled with the WASD keys might not be so bad. Of course, in that game you can switch between the isometric view and the over shoulder view. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed for isometric with zooming and rotating camera (a la Dungeon Siege) as being an option.
