Third Person ?

[eagardh]

Please consider adding Third Person perspective. First Person makes my brain hurt literally. Third Person would attract me to this game, First Person drives me away. Thank you for building this game.

If 3rd person is added there will be folks who want their dwarve to look different.
That opens up a whole different can o worms. it would be OK if both are available though.

Me or a bird's eye view...that would be great. I've just invested another 2 hours and now I have a sore neck...that's not fun. So please, finally add the third person (or whatever you call it) - and the game will be fun again.

1st person ins't at all bad... and i prefer it personally... i have never gone first person in skyrim/oblivion/etc... it spins me out when i try.. .so a camera switch key would be best

I suggest this, first off, it opens it to people so more players, more money, more development.

Second, I have had to stop playing, dont think it has anything to do with this game but been getting motion sickness lately, doctor will hopefully sort it tomorrow but it isnt nice so I feel for those that experience it from gaming.

I cannot play flight sim VR, Cricket and other stuff is OK but DCS makes me want to puke in VR so its off the cards for me, irrelevent to this thread but my thoughts to those saying they get it in FP!

I've been playing games since the 1980s and I've found that 3rd person only seems to work really well for me in 3D games when its sports games. If any changes are made, I'm hoping we can stay at 1st person for this game if we want to and default to it in the settings (so we don't have to keep changing whenever we start). I'd like for other things to be added to this game first like supports for stairs that auto-generate when stairs go higher in the air and better wall/rail systems to keep my player from walking off landings for stairways.

yeh i am with you *a camera key switch would be better* but yes... most important stuff first ;)

same, i would buy but first kill my braincells

yes the 3rd person camera view helps your eyes readjust to distance and relaxes the eye strain. Would be great to switch back and forth instead of just staring to something so close. And because your a dwarf your so close to the ground it def messes with your head and equilibrium. I know im too close to the ground when im talking to the dwarf that handles the quest turn in and i have to look up to him.

+1 I can play either or but much prefer 3rd person because 1st person gets me disoriented pretty easily. Plus building sucks when you are 2' tall.
