This was a fun one. I'd been scoping out concept art and design work for the Deus Ex: Human Revolution game and thought it looked really cool. Read a review and it sounded like an amazing game. Then found out it was a First Person game and lost all interest. I can just NEVER get into those games; somehow I always feel even more disconnected from the experience when I'm given that FPS interface. Ugh.

Anybody else get that? Where you've been really interested in a game, but they made it in the POV that you just can't stand? Maybe I'll try DE someday... but I'm no longer psyched about it. :(

actually, you spend most of your time in cover which is in 3rd person. If anything, I'd say about 80% of the game, you're not in first person mode.

but still, fps is kinda overused these days.

Well done though, i love the main character of deus ex: hr! this is really awesome!

I liked this character design a lot from the first time I saw it. Going from 1st to 3rd person that much seems like it would get jarring. Meh. Not all games are for all people, I guess.

Thanks. I enjoy facial work most, so when I do a piece like this I can have a lot of fun. :)

FPS just doesn't do it for me, in general. The only one I've ever been able to get into was Half-Life, but that was more for the story. I find the floating hands thing to just be profoundly silly and not knowing where my feet are drives me nuts when I'm trying to get close to a ledge or something, so it's just hard to get into those games. I played Doom and Duke back in the day, but I could never really get excited about them (except for the BFG... who couldn't get excited about eradicating an entire room in one shot? ;P ).

Preaching to the choir, man. I'm exactly the same way. 1st Person is just too limited, always feels too stiff, and yeah - a bouncing gun at the bottom of the screen at all times is kinda silly.

It must be reverse psychology.
