Zoom out further?

I’m not seeing an option where we can change the ability to zoom out a bit further so I can see a bit more of the map around my character (If there is one, holler at me, LOL) so I just wanted to make a suggestion to maybe work this in?
The scope of my character in relation to what’s visible around her feels… off balance.

This is a console port, so there is not a zoom out function. Consoles can not do the granularity that mice can, and the farther you zoom out, the loss of precision grows. It also explains why this game can’t do 5k resolution in the year 2023.

that’s not an excuse because you can zoom in and out on pc just not far enough. They implemented zoom so why can’t they let you zoom out further?

I just explained it to you in the post you replied to?

The ability to zoom out a bit further in the game would be a useful feature. Sometimes I feel like I’m missing out on some of the details because I can only see a small portion of it around my character. It would also help me to navigate better and avoid potential enemies or obstacles. I think this option would enhance the gameplay experience and make it more enjoyable. I hope the developers will consider adding this feature in a future update.

I don’t see zooming out slightly more would cause that issue

Yeah, I’m glad it’s not just me who feels that way too.
Even just the ability to zoom out a tiny bit (on PC) would really improve the navigation and overall perception of game and world interaction.

I’m not looking to zoom out into the atmosphere or anything. Just a slight bit because yes, there is the ability to zoom out but it is extremely limited. You can zoom like maybe 5% of the original value and then it’s capped.

To those who said that’s the limit due to it being a console port, that’s factually incorrect and probably didn’t fight the world boss which automatically zooms you out MUCH further.

up…because its unacceptable that we can’t zoom out in 2023…d2 feels the right angle…diablo 3 is adjustable…d4 feels like a mobile or something…

The game engine feels very limited already in low density areas, I just don’t think it can handle anything more, zooming out in busy areas would really push things, it only ever does in very specific situations. The game on PC runs hot and pushes cards for not a lot of gain, on consoles they are running upscaled 4k and low fps.

I agree, it is way too claustrophobic but I don’t think that it will change.

Pleeeeease. Find a way to implement something for this.
Boss fights are so much harder than they should be for things like kiting, positioning, etc., because I can’t see the entire area I’m working with (Sorcerer, so positioning is SUPER important)

Its definitely needed you are zoomed out when on a mount and in groups just not solo

And that is the reason why you cannot zoom out (except WB) - developers don’t want you to avoid enemies and obstacles, they put them there for a reason.

he didn’t say it was impossible, he said it would help. The game isn’t supposed to make everything unavoidable, only certain objects and quest elements of which he is not referring to
