I hate when I get shot while I'm playing American mini golf 2014

Sums up Grain Elevator in Red Orchestra 2.

Rcbif I did. And then I laughed again, seeing this.

Rcbif same

hahaha ikr

I was sipping on a glass of water and spit the water on my shirt. Good job onion, now i gotta dry my shirt.

Dave Marx No way people will play this way , why waste money on this second player crap?

2nd person is I and you

+gamesfornobs 1st person is I and Me, 2nd person is You, 3rd person is He, She and It. Some people also use "they" as a gender-neutralhe/she

I would say a direct front-facing view, as if you are talking to the person you are controlling.

lordshardik so 2d fighting games?

lordshardik this guy gets it

@Hierophant Tons of collectors editions of games come with a bunch of knickknacks but not the game itself. Its a shitty practice done by most AAA punishers.

@Hierophant We Happy Few did this recently.

Prophetic? Corporate execs watch onion to gain new ideas.

alien journalists

@@daviddanielian9525 Eh. I've heard some defence of it. Namely that some players actually buy the collector's edition seperatly later after the playing the game. In that case, including the game may be redundant.

What game was that? I gotta know.

NPC: Turbo

That exists? Sweet!

Yeah, I remember how he came in to my store one day. He immediately walked towards one of the walls and stared into it for 22 hours, after which he started undressing and changed clothes 14 times. he then cast some fireball spells into the wall. No one else in the store seemed to mind. Then he proceeded to search every chest and shelf in the entire store, even behind the counter, where I was standing, and stole a lot of my stuff. He then walked up to me and tried to sell back to me the things he'd just stolen. I happily paid, of course. He then continued to stare at me in silence for about 45 minutes and then left the store. After about three weeks, he came back. All his clothes was now glowing with some strange light, and he held a huge sword, also glowing. He killed the town's strongest man, who happened to be in my store at the time, with one swift blow of his sword. He then looted the corpse and left to never return. The corpse is still there today, several years later, on the exact same spot where it fell. In all that time, I haven't moved one inch from my place behind the counter.

X Lightcameradeath Such a interesting life the one of a NPC

I'd pay the guy that is not Lawrence Fishburne to narrate.

I'd pay the old onion week in review narrator too

oh yeah, oh yeah, OH...YEeeah.

I'd pay for Betty White to narrate it. Though Morgan Freeman is good as well.

Bryan Blessed and Gilbert Gottfried DLCs coming soon.

Kevan Brighting (from _The Stanley Parable_) would be a better choice IMO.

the funny thing is text based rpgs are super emersive. this could be a good idea

I did a book report on the video game I played all summer one year...it worked.

@@mista_fur3346 I've thought about doing something like that. Too bad I won't have that chance to do it.

YpsiFang you could do it from the perspective of an amnesiac who is being told what happened by other people. You could really make it trippy if the people telling you what happened contradict each other and have different motives.

Jacob Staten so memento?

ReviloYaj I was thinking from a hospital bed. Not complete amnesia, just the events ralavent to the story. Like maybe a several hour window of missing memories. Maybe a cop, wife, mistress (or is she), po faced brother in law. That kind of thing.

YpsiFang I don't want a Jewish protagonist

superpenguin77664 what would be wrong with that?

Name ? (

@@snaiper195 Still waiting for them to get back too

@@SushiCombo yeah

@Pentex Sucks he even smokes from time to time!

Play Eve Online and get a monocle.

Maybe a quicktime event, although it's still weird :p

A text based game.

Well its an sps so

Hey, I know you!:O

Yeah yhey use left mouse button

rofl me too.

LMAO ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best part.

it has been years, did you all find it?

@@dontspikemydrink9382 har har

At least you got verbs.

They really phoned in the adjectives. Suckiest DLC evah.

You just stereotyped how gamers are portrayed.

@@SynthLizard8 Automatically assuming that gamers are gonna be portrayed in a stereotypical fashion, is stereotyping how people portray gamers :p Tis joke, nothing serious.

@@SynthLizard8 Ok. But it's a stereotype :p

What andreassmed said

What a novel idea

A novel? That will never work. Thousands of tiny words spread out over hundreds of pages? I could just have someone read it to me. Let me call morgan freeman.

And their leader is called pewdiepie

Christian Weibrecht brofist from gayland !

Julian Zhang ???, elaborate

Christian Weibrecht pewdiepie sucks

Well, I would say that The Stanley Parable has some actual 2nd person elements, it's part of its quirkness.

Isn't the Stanley Parable a second person game? (I'm not sure so please tell me)

@@rykerhall3523 It definitely has elements, but is not entirely a second person game because you break that perspective with your own agency over Stanley.

I wonder what CoD's second-person mode would say.

MegamanXfan21xx . 1:26 - 1:32

jcrowley1985 We meet again!!

You beat me to the punch.

You start playing a shitty game, you continue to play it, you are basking in its generic stupid bullshit. LULULULULU

Me too

@@rykerhall3523 I would play that as would you Ryker Hall

It wouldn't have to be an enemy. It could be through the eyes of a companion...

The challenge has been set then...

My secret is that I know how to turn captions on

No, that's still first-person but from an opposing side. Second-person is where you are entirely disconnected from the events but are being informed of them by someone who DID experience them.

i was thinking about the camera perspectives in games. first person is through the character's own eyes and third person is through the eyes of a (imaginary) person who watches the character (mostly from behind). so second person should be through the eyes of the person that the first person sees (namely the npcs, in most cases enemies).

teed no, because that would also make first-person games second-person, because your character is seeing every NPC's experience from a second-person vantage point. Think about it: what would be the difference between the perspective of your third-person example and your proposed second-person example? Both would feature the actions of the same character from the vantage point of someone else. They are the same in everything but the camera angle. The difference between the viewpoint of two different NPC's would be identical to the difference between one of those NPC's and the third-person viewpoint. The only exception would be if you were focused on the actions of the NPC you are controlling, which would convert that third-person perspective to a first-person perspective. Second-person is not seeing the events from a different (non-first-person) perspective, it is having it described while disconnected from the events in question.

Christ J "third person" refers to an entity that observes an action but does not directly participate in it. however both the first and the second person (or "parties", if you prefer) _are_ directly participating. there's your difference. since the first person view is tied to the first party (by definition), the second person view can only belong to the other participating party, i.e. the npc. the third person is then a third party that observes the action (not taking part in it), a fourth person would be a person observing the third person (taking part in neither the action nor the observation of the action) and so on. i understand your opinion about the second person (which is also the opinion held in this video), but it doesn't seem logical/consistent to me. _seeing_ the action though someone's eyes or _hearing_ the action through someone's description is really the same thing, only a different "mode" of information conveyance.

teed you're still missing the point. When you experience the events through the eyes of an NCP you are STILL in first-person, you are just experiencing it in a slightly different way to the original first-person perspective. The story will be told from the vantage point of the eyes you ARE seeing through, because it is simply not possible to do otherwise and remain in first-person view. For example, if we were playing Mario Sunshine we are the third person. However, if there was a "Mario-eye view" option we would be in first person. But if we then switch around and see the game from the perspective of Bowser - through _his_ eyes - we are now seeing it in First-person, but from a different individual viewpoint. Remember, this isn't just about whether you are seeing what you're doing or hearing it, it's about _who relays that information to you_. If the information is direct from your character, via a first-person view, then it is a first-person narrative; if it is via the description offered by someone else, it is second-person. Think about it: how would that same scene be described by _you_ if you were actually seeing the action? You'd be saying "_I_ am walking along this corridor", "_I_ am firing at the enemy". The description would be in the form of a first-person narrative. Without this direct input from yourself this turns into a second-person narrative, as the events are relayed to you by someone who _can_ see what's going on. The second person is NOT a participant, they are an observer dictating the events to you. You should also note from this that a third-person camera angle does NOT necessarily indicate that you are playing a third-person perspective. Skyrim is a first-person game irrespective of your preferred camera angle. In fact, I can't think of any third-person games off the top of my head.

Its not sponsored

Esmee Hulskamp But still, this is a good precedent

@@leithesocialistyuricon8981 True

8/10 needs more words - Kotaku

I feel as if this is a complete troll

@@Parzival-UK oh it definitely is lmfao

but does a person read it to you?

@@jmooroof1769 "the you" read some of the dialogue in second person if i remenber it right.

Look, if you don't want to jump on the bandwagon, that's fine. You can just stick to your primitive but comfortable first-person shooters with their familiar and inviting control schemes while the _rest_ of us move into the _future_ with second-person shooters and their revolutionary _new_ control schemes.

I want to see an alternate universe where the Apple Pippin was sucessful and Apple is still in the console buisness. The latest controller might have 2.5 buttons, a foot petal, and voice recognition. So people with confusing names cannot be targeted ;P

I'm not sure if Stanley Parable properly fits any technical definition of a "game". But it is an entertaining interactive "narrative". With a lot of overt inside-jokes and subtly embedded commentary (of sorts) about popular games.

Yeah this game sucks. There’s not even any online multiplayer.
