EQ first person FTW!!!!

Mouse scroll wheel is for wimps.

I play in first person and use the mouse wheel as PTT button, works great

I tend to agree, the most boxing I can do is having a buff bot sit there while i just basically solo with another character. Actively playing two or more characters is just a pain to me and I feel like I'm focusing more on the mechanics of playing rather than just enjoying the game.

Yes, its is a bit repetitive doing solo boxing for longer periods, but as soon as you join another real player with their boxes its tons of fun! Especially since less competition for the good stuff! For instance, I could never get a group in Mistmoore on p99, but here I've been doing some really nice levelling in a 3+2 box group from 22 to 26.

I tried p2002 for about 10 minutes, as Vanilla-PoP was hands down my favorite era. However, the lack of mouse scrolling to zoom out, and not being able to control the camera with my mouse was a deal breaker. Really kills the immersion, and I don't like playing this in first person.

Wait, isn't first person view more immersive? Unless you're one of those people who follow yourself around with a selfie stick everywhere, 3rd person view is quite the immersion-breaker.

I disagree. Immersion for me means relating to my character. I can't relate to my character in the world without seeing her.

I assume immersion is different for all of us, I just like killing shit. I don't relate to or pretend I am my character. First person took me a bit to get use to. I am loving p2002 but its not for everyone. P99 is great as well have a few 50+, I just like POP too much so had to flip servers [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

3rd person view sux..... its useful for battles and some other specific things but if u wanna get immersed first person s the way to go

egocentrism vs enviromental view...

obviously enviromental view will be much more imersive while egocentric view all u get s to wish to rush to ur final destination...not enjoyin the ride

I"m confused. do people thing we cant play in 3rd person cause there is no zooming out with scroll wheel? or are they too lazy to look at options and see what the key command is to change camera view(F9 by default), were you can play in 3rd and even swing the camera with your mouse.

yeah some guy popped in my stream the other night and thought we couldn't play in 3rd person, so there's some misinfo out there.
