Brian,
  First perspective RPGs may be the new thing, I find their combat
sequences hard to relate to role playing simply because winning usaual
relies on the players ability to press the mouse button rather than the
characters combat ability.  However, the reason I like Betrayal at Krondor
is because it kept the first perspective contolled environment and fixed
the combat problem by goin to 3rd perspective (obvious statement).  When
it comes to perspective, I have been debating on it for quite a while. 
While 3rd person gives a more understandable veiwpoint for the player, it
usually will knock out certain things (like not being able to see certain
sides of buildings).  The way I have fixed this problem is to do a cutaway
of the building you are standing by.   What really is annoying though is
the fixed first perspective movement of Bards Tale and such.
  Turned based combat (what you all used up to U6) I found worked the best
although it could get long and tedious, so maybe an option would be nice.
  There is much more that I have noted from the 7 years of playing RPG's
(paper and computer), but it would take a while to type then all in.  I
hoped this helped!.
