      I wouldn’t consider that 2nd person, since the investigator isn’t actually present in the same world. There’s a distance with found footage. You as the player can’t clearly see you’re looking through the investigator’s perspective, if that makes any sense. It’s more like you’re merging into the main character’s perspective, either through first or third

    It means you controlling a character through the eyes of another character
    Ps. Mario 64 has a confusing story behind the perspective, which makes it seem like it falls into this category, but please note there’s more to it than just the one sentence you see above. Mario 64 is third person.
    First and foremost, Lakitu is supposedly a cameraman, what would mean you’re looking through the camera, not Lakitu’s eyes. Besides that, it’s all about the perspective. The perspective you see while playing the game is third person, with or without Lakitu...
    Pps. English is my second language, so I would be really proud of myself if everything said above is correct and coherent. I have an (Dutch) essay coming up, so this is a good practice... i think.

      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.

    2nd person: I watch through your eyes.
    As you can see 3rd person is picked slightly at random to describe watching yourself through a camera that follows you everwhere. May as well refer to the camera as ‘you’, making it 2nd person. It’s about an external view on yourself. The language theory application is arbitrary.

    Thrasher: Skate and Destroy was a skating game that used this concept in the end of their levels I believe. Once you hit a certain score or spent enough time in the level you'd get chased by a cop, and the game would flip to the cop's perspective while still having you in control of your skater running away. Fun game.

    • @ShanetheFreestyler
      @ShanetheFreestyler 3 месяца назад

      Exactly what I was thinking! And it was time based, by the way. The cop chases you after 2 minutes elapse and then you must either skate to the exit of the level or keep away long enough for the cop to give up. If I recall, you also get a bonus multiplier for landing tricks while being chased as it's hard to pull off and keep your speed.

    In fact "The Stanley Parable" is a 2nd person game if you assume that you are playing as Stanley. Although the narrator speaks in 3rd person, he is speaking about the actions "Stanley" will take, should take, or has taken, but since you have assumed the roll of Stanley, the narrator is actually telling *you* (the one playing as Stanley) the actions *you* should take, have taken, or should have taken. The problem with a 2nd person perspective story or game is that you can choose NOT to do what you are told to do, which is the core idea behind "The Stanley Parable".

    I played Driver SF for too many years trying to enjoy every little detail and yet, i never noticed this "Feature". I just have strong emotions for this game cuz i grew up with it and you just made those emotions stronger, thank you!❤️

    The best way to experience this in real life, Is driving beside a semi and seeing your car in their blind spot mirror. Seeing yourself drive past in the mirror or being beside it where you can see your car is the weirdest feeling.
