“…between the first person and third person POV. Such choice provides many benefits over the conventional single perspective, however it is argued whether one of these POVs is better at immersing participants in the digital world than the other [13]. This paper sets out to investigate whether playing in first person perspective is more immersive than the third person POV, and whether players' personal preferences in terms of the camera POVs they typically choose have an effect on this.…”

Contemporary digital game developers offer a variety of games for the diverse tastes of their customers. Although the gaming experience often depends on one's preferences, the same may not apply to the level of their immersion. It has been argued whether the player perspective can influence the level of player's involvement with the game. The aim of this study was to research whether interacting with a game in first person perspective is more immersive than playing in the third person point of view (POV). The set up to test the theory involved participants playing a role-playing game in either mode, naming their preferred perspective, and subjectively evaluating their immersive experience. The results showed that people were more immersed in the game play when viewing the game world through the eyes of the character, regardless of their preferred perspectives.

“…The participants preferred the first-person view and predicted that they could perform better with such view. This may be because first-person view provides a better sense of player immersion (Rouse III, 1999). But in reality, the size of the image of the road is the main difference between the two views.…”

“…Different perspectives offer the viewer a different viewing experience. A body of research (Anquetil & Jeannerod, 2007;Bateman et al, 2011;Pazuchanics, 2006;Rouse III, 1999;Salamin, Tadi, Blanke, Vexo, & Thalmann, 2010;Salamin, Thalmann, & Vexo, 2006) has shown the effects of perspective view on user performance in interactive games, virtual reality and simulations.

Immersion is recognised as an important element of good games. However, it is not always clear what is meant by immersion. Earlier work has identified possible barriers to immersion including a lack of coherence between different aspects of the game.Building on this work, we designed an experiment to examine people's expectations of how a game should behave and what would happen if that behaviour was deliberately made to be incoherent. The idea then is to understand immersion through seeing how immersion can be broken. The main manipulation was to alter the behaviour and realism of the graphics in the course of a simple game situation.Surprisingly, results indicated that participants could be so immersed within a simple environment such that even significant changes in behaviour had little effect on the level of immersion. In some cases, the attempted disruptions went completely unnoticed.These results suggest that immersion within an application can overcome effects which are completely against user expectations.
