Camera zoom out farther or mod?

[JC]

Is there a way to get this camera farther back when moving around? I don't know why games insist on having no other option than right on top of the character but man it's annoying. What ever happened to good ol Screen Zoom slider? Is it in the game and i just can't find it or is this another one that has no choice in the mater?

When in-battles you can pull the left trigger on your controller to zoom out and see everyone's health bars and status (a very useful feature). There's probably a keybinding for this on keyboard as well.

When exploring I don't think there's anything by default, but I'm pretty sure there IS a mod on modsnexus for a zoomed out camera, I remember someone talking about it before. Hold on lemme check...

Thanks your a life saver.. I almost refunded the game running around in the abbey was making me sick. I have no clue why companies are pushing this view on games. It's funny, the person that made the mod was also complaining about it, i guess that is why they made the mod lol.

Wish companies would go back to adding an FOV slider? I didn't realize there was so much running around in close 3rd person.

Happy to help!
Glad it means you'll get to enjoy the game more! It's great!

It helped, But i wish it was a bit further, still it's way better. As long as i keep running around to a minimum i think i'll be ok. It does have some info though that i might be able to adjust it a bit further.

I am enjoying the game so far though,, i just wish they could of gotten the actors from the movies, it would of been really cool seeing Huge Jackson and Brie Larson playing the characters. But still the actors do a decent job. It makes me want to watch the Runaway's now despite Nico giving some spoilers lol

Movie license games with the actor's likeness & voice acting would be so expensive that they'd most likely end up being only 2-3 hours long or even shorter.

I think it's better for RPG's to be much longer than that and feature their own art inspired by the comic books, as that way the game actually gets closer to the source material than the movies ever will.

And you'll have to rent the Runaways or buy it these days as the show has been removed by Disney. :(

Hi, I made that mod lol. Yes, when I first got the game it made me super mad to the point I learned to mod. I had taken a break from the game to deal with life. But I will be posting more zooms over the weekend. I was working on a press E mod for some time and did get some breakthroughs as I hate the hold E garbage. I don't think I'll be able to get it but one day I will.

It's on hulu, or something else,,, I think disney has it now too. That is most likely why they are on strike, outside of the high paid folks that you could skin, you could easily remove all the extra;s that make the movies,

I know it would have to be in the contract, but man would that be so cool. I would so love to be with them.

Disney+ had it for quite a while but it was recently removed as they are massively reducing the number of available shows & movies to save money. It's been removed from all legal streaming sites.

The strike is about the streaming services not giving any shares to the actors(unlike movies and tv) which has destroyed their income, and also about AI regulation demands as AI is going to make a lot of the writers and artists jobless.

Yea, they should get money.. Basically the companies have contracts that streaming is a loop hole as they were written before streaming. So if they show the show on TV they get paid, but not if it's streaming.

I haven't really noticed stuff being pulled to save money though, It's more likely that the Licence/contract just ran out. If you notice every month stuff is added and removed because they pay for the licence, sometimes it's year by year, others are longer. They probably are not being renewed though till the strike is over though.

Just look at the older shows, all the stuff from pre-80's they never get a dime outside of the paycheck when they made it. With AI and computers they can just add people with out having actors as well. AI doesn't have a heart and it shows. I'd take some bad acting over AI any day.

As for the runaways I didn't notice it was pulled as i just saw it like a week or two ago and thought, i need to watch that. It was on hulu before that and i noticed it got pulled and moved. Personally I've really enjoyed the Disney marvel stuff and star wars. I don't like it all but that is normal, you can't like everything. I know some folks don't but hey different strokes for different folks right? Btw, if you haven't seen "the mandolorian" i'd highly suggest it and follow it with book of boba fett. Boba fett started slow, but got really good and Ming-na Wen was great in it if your an Agents of Shield fan.

I realize this is a tangent, but still a lot of the new marvel stuff is great, Captain marvel, the ant-man movies, guardians of the galaxy are a few of my latest fav's (to bad ant-man/Goliath is not in the game) and i know some folks won't think it's a popular opinion but she-hulk was surprisingly good. It was so nice to see a superhero show that was more about the story than action. Daredevil season 1 was also like that and fantastic, though i might be bias as he is my favorite super hero. I wonder how mod=able this game is because it would be really cool to add more heroes to the game. I'm loving the story aspects, but the combat is a bit to cinematic for me.

anywho, thanks for the update on the show, now i'm bummed lol.
