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."

: If you couldn't pan the security cams around live, there

Ahhh. I was looking at the manual for mapmaking here and it was mentioned there that the player could still move around and shoot while accessing the terminals, and that this was something to be fixed in the future. I interpreted the ability to look around as "moving" and thus thought it was erroneous that the player be able to pan their view around. Good to have that cleared up.
