Default They don't call it Ascention for nothing...





They should call it expansion instead.

No, these haven't been edited in any way except cropping to remove irrelevant background.

Nothing special.
I've seen people fly up to 30 feet in the air in GW.

I'm talking about the increase in size of my character.
You can see his feet are on the ground, but look where his head is in relation to the arch behind him.

That's not called perspective it's FORCED perspective.
It's where you use the angle and distance to make things look relatively larger/smaller.
It was used in LotR to make hobbits look the right size.

If you look carefully, and consider the perspective, you'll realise that in the super tall one the camera is actually further away.

What's to say they aren't two different characters? Different EQ. Pet/No Pet. :P I dunno. Cool though. :P

Looks to me like they either changed the area or you just moved the camera around to give an illusion using perspective. The bigger shot actually looks like the camera is closer.

No it doesn't.
Look at the ground, you can see more of it in the huge one.

Maddox, even if it was two different characters you couldn't get that much of a difference in height.
