The 2nd perspective in games too is also applied on "No one lives under the lighthouse" when during a chase scene your perspective is the monster's and you have to run away, but the trick being is that the farther you are the harder it is to see where you're going, forcing you to stay close to the monster as to not get lost

Maybe, but the thing different here is that you are seeing it from a different NPC. Not just a camera above your head. Like someone mentioned, in a game where a monster chases you, the 2nd person was that you had the perspective of the monster, but you were controlling yourself. You are seeing *You* being chased by this monster, forcing you to stay kinda close so you see where you are going.@@itstimeforlee

A 2nd person game could also be about indirect control of the main character. Imagine a main character that narrates and makes their own decisions, but you control the environment that affects their choices. That would be very similar to a story told from a “you” perspective. The Driver level is similar because “you” are the chasing driver who isn’t directly controlled.

Baldurs gate 3 has a lot of 2nd person interactions due to the Game master element, where your character, ie. you in the game, are being told what your experience is, like "As you are walking into the room, you feel a strange, but yet familiar scent. It takes you back to when you were a kid, and you immediate recognize the smell".

@greenlungo3996 7 месяцев назад

I like how this video discussed the topic and used literary narrative as the premise. But by that definition, everything we've been calling 3rd person all along is actually 2nd person. The example with the car chase is the rare instance of true 3rd person. In most games, the player watches the character directly and the controller input narrates to your character thing like "You go forward. You turn left. Now you strike". In Driver: San Francisco's chase scene, the inputs narrate "He turns, then he accelerates" while the second person is YOU driving to pursue HIM. The player, the viewer and the character make 3 people.

There is a boss battle in TloZ : Phantom Hourglass that uses the double screen of the DS to show you the point of view of the boss. Since the boss is invisible, you have to mostly rely on this to avoid its attacks and hit it. It was probably one of the more memorable moments of this game for me. Especially since this mechanic comes back (but less intensely) for the final boss.

@auriyewolf4576 7 месяцев назад

To not be too broken lets say when he gets all 3 pure metals so the final trip through that dungeon

@lapis591 5 месяцев назад

The player's point-of-view (Link) is still third-person. The glimpse into the boss from first-person perspective doesn't change that.

@math9172 5 месяцев назад

@@lapis591 Not really, because during the fight you almost exclusively use the top screen with the bosses' view. You indeed still have the 3rd person view on the touch screen to still control Link (with touch movements), but in order to dodge the bosses attacks and to shoot him in the eyes, you *have* to use the "2nd person" for most of the boss.

@Lucifronz 7 месяцев назад

As someone else mentioned when someone brought up horror games, this concept exists in the Forbidden Siren series. A blind character in the first game uses you as their navigator, but it's mainly just by having you turn to look at them so they can gauge where they are from your perspective. The *second* game, however, allows you to play as a blind character named "Shu" who sees through his seeing-eye dog. The whole game revolves around this sight mechanic overall, but with Shu it's how *you* navigate. You see entirely from the dog's perspective as it follows quietly behind Shu and it's very interesting. This might be hard to make work for a whole game, but I think it could. There are lots of scenarios where it could be feasible. Like a cameraman following a reporter around, or a drone buzzing around a person's head or scooting along the ground like a roomba or something and trying to keep up. The potential is there. Just takes someone brave enough to try it.

"First person" and "third person" are simply about your _point of view_ (as a player). Being in a car "chasing yourself" is really just a mix of first and third person, because you're still effectively controlling everything. A "2nd person game" would simply be a game where you always see things from the point of view of an _independent_ (i.e., AI-driven, or script-driven) NPC that your character might be _interacting_ with (basically, it looks like a first-person POV, but instead of the camera being the player character's eyes, it's some NPC's eyes, aimed at the PC, while you're controlling _only_ the PC - though I guess that part goes without saying, because whichever character you're controlling is effectively the "player character" at that point, even if it wasn't at a different stage of the game).

@henrikaugustsson4041 5 месяцев назад

Yeah. Second person would be like seeing yourself in a police body cam, roughly. You'd be seeing yourself from the perspective of the person you're interacting with. If it were a combat game, you'd see yourself from the eyes of the enemies.

@theblinkingbrownie4654 5 месяцев назад

Not sure if this really counts, but have you played Tearaway Unfolded? It's hard to say if this is a "second person" situation or just a 4th wall elimination, but while the game has a character you control in third person, there is another character/entity known as the "You" which is the player controlling that character from up above, which leads to some existential clashes.

Before I finish the video, im going to say 2nd person would be point and click style games like Sierra or early lucasarts adventure games, or even the sims and RTS. The idea is you are essentially talking to the characters telling them what to do. I remember the first time I encountered 2nd person was in the Mayday Parker Spider-Girl comics. The Narrator was talking to spider girl. At first I thought it was an inner monologue but it would refer to her in situations where she wasnt present nor had knowledge of its events. Its definitely strange but curiously entertaining. I’ll edit this when I finish the vid.

Xuan Boone Well not really. For it to be a third person perspective the “third person” needs to be completely detached from anything that is going on in the game. The third person does not exist in the game’s universe, but watches everything from outside. With a second person stalking game, the camera follows the perspective of an actual person that exists around the protagonist without being the protagonist itself.

Here's another 2nd person gamemode for you: in recent soccer games (FIFA and PES) there's a "become a legend" mode where you only control one player instead of the whole team. In this mode, if you set the camera setting to the ball, you actually see yourself from the perspective of the ball. The camera is always facing towards you it's just that the point of view is moving with the ball.
