Gameview through camera?

JohnHeatz · 05/14/2013, 22:39

Can you imagine yourself playing an RPG game without having to use the mouse to point your view? So that the commonly "hold right click and move your mouse to see in a different way" would be over, and all you'd need to do is move your head?

Well, Test Subject LLC. has brought this feature to the table as an optional feature, which could be added to their upcoming game Ascended.

Let's watch a short video, which might explain this feature better than words could:

So, as Texas has explained here, this feature is currently developed for FPS games, yet, it can be brought to the RPG scene as well, which I, personally, find pretty useful so that you can focus on the keyboard while playing, leaving the camera movement functionality to the movement of your head.

So, as Texas requested on his video, what would you think about this feature being added to the RPG scene? Would you find it useful, or tedious? Would you rather use this than your mouse?

Bad thing is that your head will hurt after 15 minutes of usage.

would cause headache on me :|

Though it would cause much pain to your neck, If you play it too much. Too bad for players who plays 12 hours a day.

I'm sure Ascended will give its players to option to use this or not, so you could turn it off when your neck starts hurting, just saying.

Yes you can switch back and forward with mouse or cam it is up to you.
