Welcome to Feralheart, floof!
Have you tried pressing the F2 button?
F1 = Your character's point of view
F2 = Default camera
F3 = Free roam camera (Your camera moves around, but your character does not. Use w,a,s,d to move the camera forward, backward, left or right. Or use whichever buttons you use to move your character. Press + or - to speed up or slow down in this mode)
F4 = Chase mode. Experiment with this while running!
Always press F2 to go back to the original camera mode, that follows your character. Hope this helps!
