Currently things that can look at players just stare directly at the player’s camera, instead of the player’s avatar. I always thought this was a bit weird, shouldn’t they look at your avatar instead of breaking the fourth wall to stare directly at you?
Naw these are Billboard sprites, which are intended to always face the camera. Yes it gets a little wacky at extreme / high up angles, but that’s just how they work in just about every game that has them. Trust me, the alternative is much more jarring.
The examples in my photos are an NPC and an Eyeball, which have models and aren’t 2D sprites. (Though for clarification, I believe that Canvas Statues should remain as they are, this suggestion is mostly for these two items + the Eyeball Stalk)

I’ve noticed this as well although it doesn’t seem to be an issue with official NPCs in plaza or condo hub. I’ve only experienced it with placeable NPCs in condos.

An alternative wouldn’t hurt to have though.
