Makes me want a FPS game in which you control Sekibanki, you could change the view on the fly (not a pun)
It's like changing between 1st person view and 3rd person, but your head is still preserving hitbox? Or even leave body autonomous? I'd play that stuff.
(...) but is your head still preserving hitbox? Or even leave body autonomous?
That'd be cool, you'll need to watch out for headshots as well, I just can't think a (good) way to control both the head and the body in 3rd person mode.
I thought of this, with usual PC FPS controls: For First person mode, as usual, WASD and Mouse. For third person mode: move body with WASD and head with mouse.
I think it would be hard/complex/uncomfortable to aim upwards or downwards while hidding like that in third person mode...
Realistically, there would be no good way to aim but to spray bullets in a direction, and try to correct your fire from looking where the bullets slam into the walls (hopefully) near the target, especially the further up your head went. And you want it high, because a floating head would be an obvious, easy target unless it were high enough up that nobody would think to look.

Didn't Splinter Cell do that already? I think you can use a drone as a flying camera to mark enemies then you could shoot them normally but if you were spotted while controlling the drone enemies would just gun you down.
