People don't look up. A friend always complains about some threat being over looked because the characters aren't looking up, but my experience has been that real people simply do not look up.

This is true even with video games. Competitive PvP game advantages aside, I noticed my friends never looked up in Vermintide 2. I was raving about such high detail verticality and they remarked they'd never looked up on some of the maps.

God, I love a good sky box. For all the issues Halo 4 has, it had some stunning backdrops.

Reminded me of this video https://youtu.be/iKkpmCdf1Mo

That is the worst thing I've ever watched. I hate that style of YouTube editing.

I actually sent that video to my friend when he was complaining about the trope.
