Rain Dew Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 I think so. I cannot play fist person games, they scare me too much. Because of this I miss out on a lit of games that look fun to play. The most recent game that I want to play is the new Resident Evil game, Resident Evil 8 The Village. Unfortunately it’s only in first person so all I can do is watch it played on YouTube, along with other first person games. My favorite YouTube gamer to watch is TheRadBrad, which for a time I thought it was TheRedBrad lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Normally is FPS games which I enjoy playing, most of the action or adventure games are centred via FPS instead of TPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Whereby I can go searching for the third person shooters game, I wouldn't go through the burden, that's why I settle down playing the familiar option, which is the first person shooters video games.

The Blackangel Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 It all depends on the game. Some games just couldn't work in one of the two view points. For example Layers Of Fear: Legacy would never work in third person. It would completely break the immersion of the game, and the horror aspect would be gone. And that's what the game is. A first person Rose Red-esque horror game. But take a game like RDR2, and put it in first person, and the only thing I will do is die repeatedly. I can't see a damn thing in first person in that kind of game. I have to be able to see the environment all around me, or I'm wasting my time even owning the game. One game that I will always love that's first person is Hexen. That one is great, and was honestly my introduction to first person games. I had never been into Doom, because I was never a big fan of games that required a gun. And I'm still not, for the most part. So I never really saw any kind of first person games. If the creators want to offer both viewpoints on a game, then that's on them. I think it would open up their sales reach drastically. But some games just can't pull off one or the other, and still be a good game. My 2 cents anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 If I had to choose, I'd prefer 3rd person. I know many people say 1st person increases their immersion, but it doesn't for me. Instead, it takes me out of immersion. It's like I'm viewing life with those horse blinder things on. I have virtually no peripheral vision. In many games, if I look down, I don't even see bits of me. The Blackangel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see what I'm doing, where I'm going, or what's around me. And as another example, if you're hunting an apex predator in a game, how are you supposed to react if it comes up from behind you? You'll be lucky to know, because a lot of them move so fast and silent that you don't know what the hell is going on until you're already dead.

Heatman Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Personally, I don't really think that it's realistic to have a game play in both 1st and 3rd person. It may sound nice to be possible but it may mess up the game well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I think games should have that option, but some games as mentioned like Layers of Fear would spoil it in 3rd person. I like what Evil Within 2 did being able to switch between the two. Horror games I think is where breaking immersion can happen in 3rd. But Evil Within 2 has outdoor gameplay as well as indoor. I like to play in 1st person while indoors in horror games. Outside, I need it to be in 3rd so I can see what's going on. Trying to run and shoot when you get scared makes the camera swing around like crazy in 1st person and its hard to aim. Then you run like a crazy person not knowing where to go. In close quarters indoors it's just different. So props to EW2 for recognizing that option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 If we can have the option of choosing any of them in a particular action/adventure game it will definitely make sense though, since we have multi option on what to choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boblee Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I think that some games are good on 3rd person while some are better on first person. So, it's all about choosing what works for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
