Maybe our characters are secretly suffering from a severe case of meningitis?

I second this. Just a few days ago I went to a part of Ul'dah city I rarely visit, and I noticed it was raining even though I was inside. So i tried to tilt the camera to look upwards, but I actually had to take several steps ahead to be able to see the large opening in the ceiling.

Like in real life, if you don't bend your body backwards while looking up.
I don't know anyone who can look up 90 degrees without bend the body backwards.

You can look better up if you switch to the first person view

I've always wanted to look all the way up at the tower in Wanderer's Palace, in the area we fight to Goobby-gue.

Some might not know but Ctrl + arrow keys (up / down) will tilt your camera.

Home will make you go in first person mode.. o..o

I hate the "like in real life" defense.

A. I can see perfectly upwards in real life, without bending my back.
B. Even if I had to bend my back, why can't my character just do the same?
C. Why curb our ability to explore and look around? I want to see the world and take awesome screenshots, but the weird angle it stops at prevents me from doing that with various structures, even in First-person mode.

In real life, your eyeballs are capable of rotating and focusing on something not directly 90 degrees from your face. :rolleyes:

You can already do this with the "Character face camera" button.
Just make your camera look down on your character like an eagle eye view and press it.
I forgot what the original key bind was but for me it's the "Pause/Break" button on my keyboard.
