Its like watching an action war-movie, not scene by scene, but with an overview of the whole battle. Yeah, its a reason why that never happens. You could say that this is not a movie, but a strategic game where more information is only for the good. The problem with that point is that you can only ever focus on one "block" of the battle at a time anyways. So where previous an observer did that job for us, moving the "scenes" quickly throughout the battle and giving us a "narrative" of the overall battle and providing a certain suspense for the "scenes" not yet revealed, we are now left to ourselves. We cannot kick back and take in the scenes as they come, but have to do the job of deciding what part of the battlefield to focus on ourselves. I though that was the observers job? And its a bummer for whatever "action-feeling" and shared experience we as spectators are aiming at. Not to mention the uneasy feeling of shifting prespective from one where you are close up on the details, to one where you have to move from your accustomed sitting position to get closer to screen, just to see what the hell is going on! And what about the commentators? What are they supposed to commentate and hype, when its not obvious to the viewers what they are referring too? Like the shuttle pickup from Snow in that last battle, saving both his reavers from a mine, a real hype moment that just got drowned in everything else going on. | ||

@above, I thought I was the only one even partly annoyed by that. It gives a cognitive dissonance watching the main screen and minimap where I thought the obs was. | ||
