Dynamic 3rd Person Camera = Game Changer

[SunEarthMewsic]

So normally, I'd play a few matches before simming AI matches in a tournament I made up, because the graphics and animation can only excite you for so long.

I decided to randomly try the new camera modes, including ramp and third person. Ramp is literally different angle on regular, but third person is a whole different ball game. I tried wide, super wide, and default settings and the dynamicness and energy level of a match skyrocketed to a level I've never experienced out of any simulation game.

I feel like I'm directly in the middle of the action, right in front of a wrestlers face, and that's awesome. The matches feel relevant, non-major personalities feel a bit more alive, and overall, I enjoy the match itself, instead of just the match up.

The camera changes really shake up the game and if they keep this change, I'll buy every new WWE game full price on launch.

The only thing I noticed is that somehow, simulation feels more arcadey. Everything is really fast instead of physics based with impact. I'm not quite sure how to feel about that, but I like everythngn else the game has to offer.

I tried 3rd person but isn’t it just giving you ability to swing the camera around? I found it got in the way whilst I have to control the player and camera at same time. It’s nice to make the camera abit more agile though I will admit as well as widening it- reminded me of fire pro wrestling or Whichever one it is where you could zoom right out the arena and get old school arena roof views.

When you say directly in their face I didn’t see this - how do you get that to work?

Do you find shake camera horror films scarier than just still shot ones?

Have you ever watched kpop? Sometimes they have "fixed" version where the camera doesn't move and 'moving" version where the camera highlights the main person who is singing.

If previously i enjoyed a kpop song at 20%, now its more like 95% with moving camera. It's not about swinging the camera around but the effect, you the consumer, perceives from it.

It was a metaphor. i feel like I'm the referee, being in their space.

What are you talking about? I answered the question. You're definitely overreacting to something that didn't exist.

You asked how is a 3rd person camera any different. I provided an example.
You asked how to get in their face when you couldn't find the option. I explained it was a metaphor.

Ah Ok, came across as defensive.

What part came across as defensive? I re-read it and all I did was answer a question.

If you're wondering what I would see as 'defensive', I would say something like "it's so f-ing obvious bro, really?' or something more subtle would be 'There are only 3 options. If you didn't find it, it could also be a metaphor, right? Just look. It's not that hard'

In both cases, i'm being really obvious that you didn't pay attention. So I'm confused by response to my response, and if you'd like to clarify, I'd appreciate that.

Yea my bad - that’s issue with text i can read it how my mind is reading it lol. Was prob me being defensive. I think I read your reply and it was kind of like answering a Q with a Q. The first quoted response I was expecting you to say how *you liked it vs a lecture. 2nd response you did say why *you liked it.

All good though thanks for clarifying intention. In the end I was really just trying to replicate the same feel you’re having because I love the immersion also.
