    So Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl would be a 2.5 person game. You are ordered to kill you, but there’s only one of you



  2. Not Thomas on April 21, 2021 at 1:35 am

    *Thomas’ Brain has Left the game*



  3. Edward. T.12 on April 21, 2021 at 1:35 am

    Well, Minecraft game has a second person view and it works correctly



  4. Cravore on April 21, 2021 at 1:36 am

    Minecraft: am I a joke to you



  5. The_badbatplayz on April 21, 2021 at 1:37 am

    From my perspective the 2nd person game will be focused on face as 2 person talking would’ve been and 4rth person will be like if telltale games where camera is fixed in a certain point and anyway these were my thoughts i could be wrong too



  6. Taha Mutlu on April 21, 2021 at 1:39 am

    brain.exe not found



  7. TheSkyrimGuide on April 21, 2021 at 1:42 am

    Its called top down ….



  8. diana wong on April 21, 2021 at 1:43 am

    This sounds more like a game advertisement.



  9. Zecodes on April 21, 2021 at 1:45 am

    I think the second person is third person but the camera is close and you see your character quietly half



  10. Daniel Ferus on April 21, 2021 at 1:46 am

    Thanks for that video!



  11. Taw Jevnaj on April 21, 2021 at 1:46 am

    So, a 2nd person game is a 3rd person game with a very distant camera?



  12. Laurie Bryant on April 21, 2021 at 1:47 am

    There’s a video game museum in Berlin (Computerspielmuseum) that has a second person shooter game that someone created. Basically you see through the eyes of your opponent. I guess it’s similar to this mission in Driver

    The answer dear viewer is Zork.



  15. Mattox Kurtz on April 21, 2021 at 1:50 am

    So 2nd person is VR.



  16. Chad Hill on April 21, 2021 at 1:54 am

    The Stanley Parable



  17. Jesus Christ on April 21, 2021 at 1:54 am

    subnautica would be terrifying



  18. Rejected on April 21, 2021 at 1:55 am

    Press f5 in Minecraft once. Don’t waste 15 minutes of your time



  19. Dominick Gaines playz games on April 21, 2021 at 1:56 am

    This has to be the most “braking the game” video there is



  20. MaelstromV on April 21, 2021 at 1:58 am

    So 2nd person is from the side characters view, upon the main character



  21. Aki Kuusisto on April 21, 2021 at 1:59 am

    I’m not sure how relevant this is, but I would just like to point out that Kill Strelok



  22. PuzzlesGaming on April 21, 2021 at 2:01 am

    Anybody else thought of the first boss in Battletoads (NES) when they read the title?



  23. Charles Balliet on April 21, 2021 at 2:02 am

    just play any of the old Japanese games like resident evil



  24. clint manuba on April 21, 2021 at 2:02 am

    And here when I saw him in his car I was hoping to see a real life second person perspective



  25. Wayne Chang on April 21, 2021 at 2:03 am

    Resident evil with fixed cam is a you game. It is also 2nd person shooter. It is not that complicated. From eye of Leon is first, behind him and move around with him is 3rd. While fix cams simply showing what "you" is doing. That, is 2nd person shooter.



  26. Keshav colonel on April 21, 2021 at 2:05 am

    Second person game means instead of "you playing a game", "the game plays you."



  27. bryan dominici on April 21, 2021 at 2:06 am

    Looks at mirror



  28. Big Tasty on April 21, 2021 at 2:06 am

    Technically Mario 64 is a second person game because the game is viewed by lakitu with a camera the whole time



  29. Patrick Van Valkenburg on April 21, 2021 at 2:07 am

    Zorc



  30. Tarot Guy on April 21, 2021 at 2:08 am

    so 2nd person would be like playing that gamer movie where the people control prisoners, but you would be controlling yourself while watching yourself. That’s a bit confusing but also makes sense



  31. Caroline Johnson on April 21, 2021 at 2:09 am

    Would Octodad count? You don’t move as him, you manipulate his limbs to make him move.



  32. Kousuke Masuhara on April 21, 2021 at 2:09 am

    second person feels like it’s that it was ripped in half, like the car chase scene you’re looking at the yellow car in third person but also have the perspective of first person in the chase car.. but both are you at the same time.. making ‘second person’



  33. Mortaza M. qassem on April 21, 2021 at 2:09 am

    A second person short story suggestion:
    "the egg" by andy weir.
    Highly recommended



  34. much fun user on April 21, 2021 at 2:14 am

    In black ops 3 zombie, when you die you can see another player gameplay in 1st,2nd and 3rd view. The 2nd view was a camera putted in front of the player face watching over his back.



  35. Benjamin James Clarke on April 21, 2021 at 2:14 am

    Is an entire game example not just skate? Youre literally the camera man filming your controlled player



  36. akiyama on April 21, 2021 at 2:16 am

    damn Driver was insane back then



  37. vantsel the weeb on April 21, 2021 at 2:16 am

    So a second person game would be like you look at yourself from someone else like for example a mirror😁✌️



  38. when the imposter is sus on April 21, 2021 at 2:18 am

    Second person is just a side view

    OR IS IT?



  39. Echoes_ on April 21, 2021 at 2:19 am

    I think second person games would be like playing games in a spectator perspective



  40. Roy on April 21, 2021 at 2:21 am

    This game is so different, there is nothing like this and its a shame, because its really good concept and more developers need to look into it.



  41. Abroke Programmer on April 21, 2021 at 2:21 am

    If the 3rd person shooters you see yourself as in 3d
    So second person should be 2d like terraria



  42. Pico Lico hico on April 21, 2021 at 2:21 am

    Damn why doesn’t tanner just into the mafia boss?



  43. Tall South Slav Man on April 21, 2021 at 2:25 am

    "Laughs in Minecraft f5 x2"



  44. C on April 21, 2021 at 2:25 am

    Second person video games: YouTube. Thanks for the videos!!! 🎮🎮🎮



  45. kramler on April 21, 2021 at 2:26 am

    I got confused, is it an explanation of 2nd person view, or and add for Driver 3?



  46. VesuEdit on April 21, 2021 at 2:28 am

    Start Minecraft and press F5 2 times



  47. Donbros on April 21, 2021 at 2:28 am

    I just though 2nd person is enemy or npc. I am thinking about this since 2003 or smth

    Update:
    So i though as it should be haha



  48. Anony Mous on April 21, 2021 at 2:29 am

    this was interesting lol



  49. SinaelDOverom on April 21, 2021 at 2:30 am

    Driver example isn’t a very good one. That’s still a 3d person with a twist.

    The real 2nd person is the test adventure games akin to zork



  50. CallMeBeep on April 21, 2021 at 2:31 am

    "excetera"
