High Angle

Ludic View Structure elevation: raised

The camera looks down from a markedly raised position (~30–60°). The ground becomes the dominant image element – entities recognizable, but the space between them visible. Tactical information dominates over emotional closeness. Typical of action-RPGs and tactical games.

Design question – When is “raised (high angle)” the right choice for the elevation dimension?

Reference example – Game examples: Diablo IV · Baldur’s Gate 3 · Hades.
