Yeah that is one of the extremely few things that I find after having played through to level 45 or so, I really do want back. It's kind of strange that they removed it. The other thing is too, that if you're apt to fiddle with the config files, they removed 3rd Person view entirely, even as a developer tool apparently, and since they re-encoded things differently from the first game, so far as I know no one's yet figured out how to edit the ini files (or any of the associated ones) to allow it. :/
