Hey VD
In screenshots I can see the viewpoint simmilar in style to the one from Neverwinter Nights
Personally I don' really like that kind of isometric view, I much more prefer the isoviewpoint of Fallout , Ultima, Torment.
so i want to ask you a question: will I be able to have camera mode similar to old school isometric RPGs? (placed much higher i think)
I think it would also look much more detailed and prettier.
Just look at Van Buren screenshits, when game was zoomed out they looked pretty,
I couldn't say the same about them when the game was zoomed in.

oh and BTW sorry 4 my english
it's my 3rd langauge, and I'm drunk right now!

Is it possible to play without jerking around with the camera a lot, or do you have to zoom and rotate the view in order to see everything?

If you let us move the camera around, please include a button that makes the view snap back to the default so that the directionally challenged among us don't get lost.

Talking about camera view...

will be the Player's Character always in the centre of the view or I'll have to scroll the camera in order to follow his movements?

I'm lazy...

I'd like a choice of locking it on or not as sometimes you want to move the view around and having to move the PC to do it could be annoying.

Yes, the camera isn't fixed, so it's up to you.
