Actually, this was a bit annoying in its own way. For the sake of the 
physics engine, they made it so it's not the buildings rotating, but 
everything else. Whatever building you're on stands still, and the rest 
of the world resolves around you. (At least, that's what they said in 
the video, and that's how it behaves.)

The only problem is when you jump, and halfway thru the jump, they 
switch your frame of reference. Makes it really hard to line up. You 
have to almost wait until you're past your landing point to jump, 
because you don't have any momentum from the rotation, because it isn't 
really rotating.

But yes, replaying that Age, it's definitely the prettiest of Uru.

     It's not feature creep if you put it
     at the end and adjust the release date.
