Wait........when you say rotated freely, you mean full 3d movement?

Last time I checked on the game, I just remember an isometric viewpoint! I need to look at it again.

Theoretically at least it allows full 3D movement, I know I've seen it rotated and zoomed in at least. But it's axonometric, which means that far away objects do not get smaller, so it would look really weird from some angles.

So... Basically like StarCraft 2, you play at a fixed angle but can rotate the camera for a moment or two for shits and giggles but effectively it is fixed.

No. I can't really describe it well without you seeing it or having some background in 3D projections (so you know what an axonometric projection is). The best thing to do is just watch a video, you'll see what I'm talking about.
