Jenny by the camera flipping around I meant that when I move the mouse the camera zooms in and out and if I move it too much I go from looking behind her (which is how I have the camera view) to looking at her from the front. Obviously I don't have something set up quite right. Believe me Becky my character will never get told she kicks like a mule

I guess I'll add my rant and possibly reiterate some of the previous comments.
In my opinion TLJ was(is) one of the classic adventures right up there with Kings Quest and Broken Sword. Those in decision making positions decide to take a good thing and improve on it my adding other elements to the adventure, I guess hoping to attract a wider audience. As evidenced by Kings Quest 8, Broken Sword 3 and now Dreamfall. What they in fact do (again in my opinion) is turn off their present fans of the game and not do enough to attract the crowd they were catering to.
There was a saying in the military (of which I retired from). "If it ain't broke don't fix it".
Well TLJ wasn't broke.

Demosthenes -- you can sneak by him in the basement? (I didn't wait long enough for the....maybe shouldn't post a spoiler, but even if I did wait long enough, I couldn't see how to get by him unless he was going to stick his head in the sink for a couple of minutes!) Becky, I tried to avoid him also and I couldnt. I kept hitting the right mouse button and even the K key to perform the heavy attack, I also used the space bar to block the attack. It would take several trys before Zoe would decide to attack and block and by then he had already beaten me to death. This is where I really got frustrated. I was pressing the right keys etc but Zoe would just stand there and take the beatings.

Well I'll have you know April just kicked some serious booty - course she had to die once before she prevailed but she did  Zoe definitely needs April's staff. I am not, however, looking forward to this guy you all are talking about - I can see many reloads in my future I think I'll put a spoiler tag on this thread if no one minds -

The controls are too sensitive by default. If you're using the mouse you may be able to fix the problem by reducing the mouse sensitivity on the Mouse tab in the game options menu.
