Camera Styles

Post by nevdull »

So, I was wondering...what camera styles do most of you prefer when you play? In town, i go with the OTS style...seems easier to maneouver about. When in combat, I seem to have a harder time moving my mouse to select my target (maybe my mouse is too fast but I usually overshoot the mark and spend my time trying to get my camera back on my target..this is especially true when fighting groups), so I use the low isometric style. Like in the swamp. Low isometric seems to work better for me, as I just point and click to move, hold down <Alt> so I can pick and smell the roses along the way, as it were, for my concoctions (I could open a flower shop with the amount of herbs I've gathered so far). I'm not keen on the High Isometric View at all.

What are your preferences? How do you use the camera to your advantage?

Same reason as yours when it comes to using OTS and low isometric. Also didn't like to use OTS during combat as it felt wonky to me.

I use high isometric all the time since it gives the best view of the world, but I frequently switch to the WASD keys to move around.
