Re: RESPONSE AND CLARIFICATION

SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

You're probably right, but the team won't be addressing such issues through limiting the FOV... We'll be doing more creative techniques to see that it all plays well.
If this really concerns you, you can go to Aleph One, which is making rapid strides I hear... Even have the capacity to use models instead of sprites, but still with many of Marathon's inherent limitations still intact.
