In Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, developer Massive Entertainment will transport us to the incredible world of James Cameron\u2019s sci-fi blockbusters. But, unlike the studio\u2019s previous Division games, Frontiers of Pandora is played in first-person. This is something that\u2026 well, a lot of you have issues with. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

With such striking protagonists as the blue, cat-like Na\u2019vi it\u2019s understandable why many people would like to play in third-person. So why is Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora in first-person? <\/p>\n

\u201cBecause we want you to feel immersed, we want you to feel immersed and feel like you’re really on Pandora,\u201d says Ditte Deenfeldt, game director on Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. \u201cSo it was never really a big discussion for us.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cThis was something that we were completely in agreement with Lightstorm,\u201d explains creative director Magnus Jansen, referring to James Cameron\u2019s film studio, which is aiding in the creation of Frontiers of Pandora. Both Lightstorm and Massive consider Pandora to be the star of the game rather than the Na\u2019vi. <\/p>\n

\u201cTo be as close to Pandora as possible, to be as immersed into it as you can possibly be, which is (achieved through) the first-person perspective\u2026 to me, it was a no-brainer for us to go there,\u201d says Jansen.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want you to get up close to nature, which is kind of the main character to some degree in the game, and the very best way of doing that is being in first-person,\u201d sums up Deenfeldt. <\/p>\n

We want you to feel immersed and feel like you’re really on Pandora.<\/section>\n

With this philosophy, Frontiers of Pandora follows in the footsteps of other games that have placed immersive, tactile environments at the forefront of the experience; games like Thief, Dishonored, and BioShock. But while many games that value immersion stay locked into the first-person perspective, in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora you won\u2019t be seeing the entire game through the eyes of your Na\u2019vi protagonist. When it comes to flying through Pandora\u2019s skies, the camera pulls right out to allow your Na\u2019vi and their Ikran mount to take centre stage. However, as with Massive\u2019s reasoning for using first-person, this second perspective is all about Pandora rather than your character. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe decided to use the third person camera for the Ikran and also the [ground mount] Direhorse because of the framing that it provides on the world,\u201d reveals associate game director Drew Rechner. \u201cWe really liked that [field of view] change. You can see a lot of the tree branches and the leaves and all of those things from the wings in third person that you wouldn’t really be able to see if you were in first-person. And same thing when you cut through the waterfalls with your wings, you get to see that part of the [Ikran] get wet and you see the water run off. Those kinds of details I think would be really difficult to see [in first-person].\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

The switch between first and third-person perspectives for mounts will likely have many people asking why Frontiers of Pandora couldn\u2019t offer the ability to switch between viewpoints at will. Afterall, Starfield developer Bethesda has long offered that choice in its RPGs. But Massive says that such a system is not simple to implement as the two perspectives require very different approaches. <\/p>\n

\u201cIf you want to have high quality of both, you have to make a decision very early\u201d explains Deenfeldt. She notes that creating first and third-person perspectives are very different disciplines \u2013 effectively two different games \u2013 and so offering both in the same project is \u201cdouble the work.\u201d A third-person perspective would require entirely different animations and a completely different approach to how you interact with the world. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you’re harvesting, or when you are hunting, or just moving around, if you are in third-person that becomes tiny little pixels touching tiny little pixels and you don’t get that particular sense of place and immersion that we really wanted this game to have,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

[In third-person] you don’t get that particular sense of place and immersion that we really wanted this game to have.<\/section>\n

By sticking to the first-person perspective Massive has been able to focus on creating incredibly detailed, intricate animations that show the world of Pandora close-up. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you are harvesting you grab the fruit and then, as you twist the controller, the hand is in concert with what you do,\u201d explains Jansen. \u201cAnd that’s sort of mimetic, that it mimics the tactility that comes from that. And the connection and the increased immersion that comes from that has been a huge focus for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jansen says the team wanted to push this mimetic quality forward and so many smaller details work in concert with those mechanics. For instance, as you walk through the undergrowth, your character\u2019s hands will reach out and push aside grass and branches. This obviously mimics the way Jake Sully explored Pandora in the first Avatar film, but the aim is to help create a tactile bond between the player and the world. As such, first-person was the obvious route. <\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

Putting the camera directly in the head of your protagonist comes with another benefit, too: it really emphasises just how tall a Na\u2019vi is. Seriously, humans are like children in comparison. <\/p>\n

\u201cThat sense of scale is a really important thing for our game,\u201d says Deenfeldt. \u201cThe main enemies are humans and some of the main combat spaces that you fight in are human spaces, so you really get to feel that scale difference.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI mean being three metres tall is a huge part of it,\u201d says Jansen. \u201cYou go up to a foot soldier and they’re quite small and then you kick them or punch them and they go flying. It’s great fun and a great show of strength, but we try to [show scale] in a lot more [other ways]. Because almost all of the human environments, they’re built for human size. So often when you have to go into a control room, you have to crouch down and you go through this tiny doorway and you really feel your size when you do that.\u201d <\/p>\n

That sense of scale contributes to the overall sense of immersion, which as we\u2019ve discovered is the reason that Frontiers of Pandora has been developed as a first-person game. And so while many players were hoping for a third-person Avatar game, hopefully it\u2019s now clear why Massive Entertainment opted for a different route. And, having played two hours of it for our recent preview<\/a>, I genuinely think the perspective works to properly anchor you into the strange, beautiful world of Pandora.<\/p>\n
