Not sure why people gotta spread fake news or try to bait with titles like this. The developer was just experimenting, and decided to share it with us; as a “is kinda cool, it would technically be possible” kind of showcase.
It’s not official but it really isn’t that far from official either. If he can make it look cool with 10 minutes of tinkering it shouldn’t take much to make it an option to test in early access. I hope they keep this.
I probably wouldn’t play it if it available but it would be great as photomode available in realm modifiers.
I’ve wanted more camera control ever since starting. Not necessarily an over the shoulder perspective but being able to zoom in and out, or pan the camera around to see ahead. The automatic mode they have at the moment is very unoptimal for many traversal situations that get worse when enemies attack from out of sight. Fighting also looks much more intuitive in this demo. A sort of blend between top down and 3rd person, very dynamic looking. Imagine a toggle where a lock on to enemies triggers the change and goes back to normal when traversing. There are many ways to make it interesting.
third person? really really cool!
