Flying... wow, is it bad

[Ashkendor]

Rather basic flight controls found in the majority of games. The only thing I don't like is you can't look down at the ground without having to constantly adjust your altitude.

You can actually look straight down on top of you while you're flying. Turn on autowalk, then pan the camera around to where you want it using the left mouse button instead of the right one. I'm not sure how you'd go about doing it on a console, unfortunately.
