I can't be the only one who's fed up with this camera perspective

I like it

it's great, the problem is that it's being used almost exclusively for cinematic games
if it was being used for arcade-like beat-em-up ludo then I wouldn't mind

I could go for more third-persons where the character is centered instead of just over le shoulder every time

>>712631890
so basically soulslop

>>712631430 (OP)
What I don't get is why modern AA/AAA titles ditched fixed cameras considering how obsessed they are with the cinematic experience. It'd allow more creative and interesting set pieces.

>>712631430 (OP)
What kind of genre are you playing where over the shoulder third person is so common it's made you sick? I haven't seen that shit in years

>>712632002
zoomers shit their pants in fear of 'tank controls' and don't have the spatial reasoning to adjust their movement every scene transition

>>712632002
so what does one with a view such as yours think of a game like holstin

Anon I...

and before you go:
>But muh mercenaries
An extra mode, uncharted had those too

>>712631941
No? I still want to shoot guns instead of do gay rolling and swords swings that take three days

>>712631430 (OP)
I don't mind it
honestly the only bad camera angle is isometric view

I miss shooters with this camera

>>712632002
fixed cameras are retarded because they're too far away from what the character is doing so it makes me feel like im watching someone else play my game

>>712631430 (OP)
I'm not, the best games of all time use that perspective

>>712631430 (OP)
It looks nice. Over the head feels dated

>>712632237
Too zoomed out for a horror game

>>712632071
Take old Silent Hill games, they allowed tank and 2D control schemes. I don't think it's inviable to mix fixed cameras with modern sensibilities.
>>712632112
Isn't Holstin just top view + over the shoulder for shooting? Did they change it?

DAE HATE POPULAR THING?

>>712632002
>ditched fixed cameras
It was a limit of technology not a feature. Wrenching control from the player to control what they see is also really bad.

>>712631430 (OP)
What were you expecting from Polish Dead Space?

>>712632469
>dated
over the shoulder is almost 30 years old

>>712632529
you are right I misremembered it and thought the camera was fixed but it does follow the character
still they do have a whole range of views like 2.5d, rotations, fpp and such

>>712632890
Yet it still looks modern. And over the head is even older what's your point?

>>712632732
stop regurgitating youtuber opinions

>>712631430 (OP)
I prefer it. Returnal, Division, Remnant etc all my favourite games

>>712633461
ask me how I know you were born post 2010

>>712632529
I didn't remember RE2 being so colourful, pretty nice.

>>712632132
>cinematic movie game
How? Other than the QTEs.

>>712631430 (OP)
The medium converged

>>712632002
Because fixed cameras are unimmersive

>>712632132
Reported for ragebaiting

>>712631430 (OP)
this is the only way besides FP if you are making a corridor walker like this.

>>712631430 (OP)
I think it takes you away from the horror. For example, if dead Space (original) 1 was fps I would have fullblown have to change my pants. But as it was, all I did was cry and scream a little

>>712631430 (OP)
you are in absolute minority

>>712631430 (OP)
I feel its designed to simultaneously have your character take up as much of the screen as possible while being as distracting as possible when you turn around and the camera has to change. I hate it and it gets in the way of playing the game.

>>712633653
ask me how I know you're a retard.
I'm 53 years old. dumb fuck

So play something else?

>>712631545
No anon, you are the zoomer that thinks everything needs to cater to them, like you've been told your whole sad life you are the apple of the world, everything circles around you and you are sooo important.
You get unreasonably angry at things you don't like because your life is so empty and sad you can't focus on things you like, because there is nothing other than jealousy and anger.

Getting sick of how tight and claustrophobic this perspective feels. Let me see my surroundings.

>>712631430 (OP)
It's an invention for underpowered consoles because it allows you to get away with a super narrow field, requiring less shit to render, without looking awkward. You can't have a FPS with 50° FOV.

>over the shoulder TPS
>souls likes
>hack n' slash/beat em up
All need to die unless they do something that makes the game very unique.

>>712642649
Or just play something else
