Is this game 3rd person?

[Dunston]

Me and a few friends are having an argument about whether this game is classified as a third person. I would say it's birds eye view. Please could you prove my friend wrong. Thanks, Dunston

[vybz kartel]

Yeah, it's bird's eye view.

It's actually 1st person

wrong.

dota 2 is actually MOBA game.

Multiplayer Online Battle Arena game.

first person games are "CS:CZ, CS:GO, left for dead, left for dead 2, World of Warcraft........etc".

dota 2 is directly created and based on Warcraft 3, so it is under RTS as well.

those who play dota 1 on Warcraft 3 will be able to tell you that dota 2 is RTS and MOBA combine.

It's a top-down type of game, which basically means bird's eye.

there are such games that is under 3rd person as well.

so in other words, he is not talking about camera perspective at all.

there are 3rd person shooter games, first person shooter games, Multiplayer Online Battle Arena games, Real Time Strategy games........etc.

so in other words, the title of this thread is asking whether dota 2 is a 3rd person shooter game or not.

it is steam account User name "Gu" who is embarassing himself, not me.

the title of this thread is clearly asking "what genre is dota 2 is/are???"

ayy lmao's post is correct, DRUNK_CANADIAN's post is correct.

my first post on this thread is correct as well.

3rd person camera are games like assassin creed, batman, uncharted etc, when you can see the character you are playing. like over the shoulder camera perspective.

bird-eye camera are from the top perspective as though you are a bird flying. Games like diablo, simcity and even Pokemon uses this camera
