I can't XP, but the last couple of posts have been good. Thecasualoblivion is right in that it isn't a problem for those people who don't have a problem with it (when I word it like that, it sounds obvious); the flip side, of course, is that anyone who is used to playing the game from a first person perspective might feel awkward during the game. I'm not sure what percentage of players fall into this category, but I'm guessing it isn't some niche portion.
Thecasualoblivion is also correct in that D&D doesn't need to force players into actor stance, or that it ever really tried to. However, a set of ambiguous mechanics (where you could use them either way) seems better than making half your base (or whatever percentage) feel awkward when playing the game. Just my take, obviously. As always, play what you like
