Sure, I think more generally it can be used to great effect -- the ending of one of my favorite games, OFF, uses it in a very emphatic way.

I definitely thinking gaining a visual zoom as an ability and things like that are worthwhile as well, though it should probably operate as an aside rather than a critical game mechanic if you're doing an open-ended RPG.

I was thinking of probably something less open ended in general, closer to a fallout 1 than a Skyrim.
