We need transparency of in-game objects

Objects which obscure the character for more than 3 seconds should be made transparent ::- ).

Don't you hate it when the camera is behind some wall or tree and you can't see what the hell you're doing?

Or in the caves, sometimes you only see the head of your character?

The camera's positioning should shift when these situations occur, or geometry should be made partially transparent.

Thoughts?

I like it the way it is. Can't really remember a time when it was an obstacle.
Ya they should make some stuff transparent it makes fighting/breaking stuff a lot harder sometimes.Hope its not too hard to do.
I think a rotate camera would be more suitable, like in a Warcraft III and Starcraft II - by using the "insert" or "delete" button you could rotate the camera a bit.
Here was discussed a similar problem:

I hope too some "transparencies"-function will be implemented soon.

Actually it wouldn't be that tricky thing with rotating camera, it's common thing so...
Transparency would be a good thing, I quite liked what they did with D3, where the entire wall would disappear if your character would be obstructed behind it.

Only an issue in the underground maps.
Yeah no, I have no keys left. Sorry to disappoint.

Indeed! check out this epic boss fight that is only possible due to the current method!

Spoiler
So you actually like this?

Sorry but I have to disagree. Unless you were ironical, which I hope you were. I'm a pretty ruthless gamer, but this borders masochism. If you want to play the game like this, why not put on a blindfold? ::- D.

Yeah, I was being sarcastic XD I was hoping I laid it on thick enough that it would be obvious, but yeah without literally spelling it out with <sarcasm></saracasm> tags it's never obvious on a forum :-/

Funnily enough I did die like 2 seconds after taking that pic. An exploding mer-spawn snuck in from either side, both detonated at the same time.
