>tfw super Mario 64 is the first second person game in existence
>>339700574
shouldn't second person a game where you see from the enemy point of view? Like the camera switch at every gomba?
>>339700675
Latiku's POV is the camera
>>339700675
But Lakitu is the enemy.He's filming Mario so Bowser knows where he is.
>>339700675
I thought it was a game where you follow the events of the game from someone else's point of view. Like you're just some peasant who happens to be wherever sir Lancelot is raping and pillaging next.
>>339700675
Lakitu is an enemy. A media hungry savage looking for a scoop.
>>339700824
That's third person
Well, technically.
>>339700978
Don't bog me down in technicalities. That's barely a game sir.
>>339700675
second person means experiencing it from the point of view outside of the protagonist but still inside of the world, meaning the protagonist could acknowledge the PV
>>339700574
are there any other games like this?
>>339701161
Wouldn't that mean Mario 64 is technically one of the very few 2nd person video games?
>>339700574
I spent so much time in that room trying to punch Lakitu.
>>339700574
>Grade schoolers confusing perspective and narrative, the thread
>>339701340
Yes. I challenge anyone to name another actually.
>>339700574
can't every Soccer game be considered second person? They're meant to simulate the TV look.
>>339701504
You couldn't name a second person game if you're life depended on it
>>339700895
No thats second person. Third person is you are a 'camera' floating around the protag,
Second person is you are viewing the events of the protag through another characters pov
>>339701605
I thought of one: The Skate series.
>>339701674
That is patently false. Plenty of literary works are labeled third person when it's merely another character recanting the story.
Aren't RPGs partially second person? Most of them treat you as the viewer of a story, for example in Earthbound Ness and company are the protagonists but you are a character of the story yourself.
>>339701674
then why don't you see the fishing pole and camera the entire time? you are looking through the camera, not lakitu himself
>>339701885
That's tricky because you're supposed to be ness in a sense
>>339701674
Except were looking through a camera. Not through lakitu's eyes.
>>339701859
Good answer actually
>>339702028
>>339701859
elaborate. have only played skate 3 and it doesnt seem like it..?
>>339702239
It's from the perspective of someone else filming it.
Was mario 64 a japanese game show?
>Mario 3 was a theatre play.
>Mario 2 was a dream.
>>339702239
Someone else is filming it that is an actual character in the story, they also interact with the player by talking with them when you bail and such.
>>339700574
Super Mario 3 technically was
>>339702312
>>339702412
but if i remember correctly you can rotate the camera in skate 3 freely, even from above. how is that possible?
Also, can you ever see the camera man?
>>339702582
You could manipulate where the camera could move in sm64 as well
>>339702582
its a drone in skate 3
>>339702624
Yeah but lakitu can fly.
>>339702624
lakitu can fly tho that's the point
>>339700574
And what's the second? I can't think of many games that made an excuse for the camera.
>>339700675
Kek, there is only one.

Textparser games where a machine says "you walk into the room" are 2nd person.
>>339702719
And? You've never heard of an aerial can?
>>339703006
Again. Stop being a shitter. We're talking about fully fledged games with visuals and actual gameplay.
>>339703267
>again
>ad hom
I've got no reason to listen to you.
>>339702697
>>339702719
if he can fly, why does he sit in a cloud?
>>339701047
Its still more of a game then Uncharted.
>>339704320
Quite. Something of a self wreck desu.
super mario 64 is actually a live action game show
>>339703947
The word again triggered you. That's...pathetic.
>>339700574
>Making false claims to boost his ego
What did OP mean by this?
>>339700785
DEEPEST
DARKEST
LORE
>Lakitu has recorded dozens of snuff films
>>339705697
>The Mushroom Kingdom will see Mario killing Baby Penguins, molesting monkeys and evicting Wiggler from his home
