1st person or 3rd

Post » Wed Aug 05, 2015 11:43 pm

Hi all, I just was interested in knowing which perspective you play from. Personaly, I enjoy first person, but thats because i can't really aim my weapons when I'm in 3rd. Which do you like?

Most of the time in First Person except for checking out the gear and when forced into 3rd person in kill cams, mining and such. I know you can mine in First Person but you have a great chance at glitching out the mine.

I only play in 3rd-person. I am not my character and have no desire to see the world through my character's eyes. We are an adventuring party of two, traveling the game world together on different sides of the screen.

I play both pretty much equally but I have trouble climbing ladders in third person so I have to switch to first for that.

I voted third person but that's probably about 70% of the time. My elf is quite a horse archer so obviously all that is in third and she spends a vast amount of time in the saddle. Third also in town. About an even split for dungeon diving. Short and medium range (bow) shots are okay in third but I really need first for long range shots.

Generally 3rd, but in "close" area's I switch to 1st and also in some combat. I can't do twisty caves in 3rd person, though I know some do... so I put both.

Same here. Although now that I have shield charge I am doing some third person combat. Shield charge is so much fun!

I mostly play in 3rd person. I use 1st person for conversations or interacting with an object.

I didn't vote, you didn't have an option for me. I switch back and forth often without rhyme or reason, and sometimes several times a minute. it doesn't vary with character, it varies from minute to minute... :D

I use first, I sometimes switch to view my character and appreciate the work I did on her.
