    Default Do you guys prefer FPS or Third person view and why? (for fantasy rpgs)

    im curious as to other peoples' preferences with regard to first and third person top down view when playing fantasy rpgs. i know for sci fi games fp view seems to be preferred.

    i myself like third person top down view mainly because im used to neverwinter nights/diablo. how about you? do you have any particular reasons why you may prefer fp or third person view?

    Depends on what the game has to over, that is, the mechanics.

    I like First Person as I find it more immersing and the combat is generally more challenging.

    Third person

    Can't explain why, But I think it's because I'm more aware I'm in the world.

    Pretty much this. It doesn't matter to me as long as it's not boring/shitty.

    Third person. For some reason, I sometimes get motion sickness if I'm stuck in first person for too long -.-'

    I prefer third person as the size of your character makes the scale of the world/monsters feels more in depth.
