Every other MMO I’ve played so far does it right: When you zoom in, the camera looks at the characters face. When you zoom out, it pans up and looks above the character. Because of the pan and the fact that the character is now bottom of the screen (and does not block the view) the view at the environment is much clearer.

Sadly GW2, the game for which I waited so many years, is such a big disappointment regarding the Camera. It is constantly looking at the same spot of the character. (Which spot this is, seems only to differ by the character’s height.) The character is always unnecessarily at the center of the screen and blocks the view. For example: I have a middle close zoom and just want to look straightforward at the environment. Why the heck do I then need to see my character’s feet in exchange for less clarity of view?

You can do better ArenaNet! Please, have a look how other games are doing this right and adapt GW2 to that. Thanks!
