First-Person Ghost	comment	In many First-Person Shooters you might notice that something odd about your character: you don't seem to have much in the way of a bodily presence. Instead of feeling like you're actually there, in the game, you almost feel instead like you're simply controlling a flying RC helicopter with a camera attached to it, or driving a robot on tank treads that has a two-way TV screen for a face. For example, you see your arms holding the gun in front of you, but everything else about your body seems non-existent. Looking down, you don't see your torso or legs. Rather, your whole body seems to rotate with your view, making it look like you're not touching the ground at all. Further, you seem to have a curious lack of interaction with the environment: water is undisturbed by your steps, and walking through snow/mud leaves no footprints. You don't cast a shadow, even if NPCs do. You never see yourself in any mirrors or reflective surfaces. Walking up to a door, when you press the "open" button on the controller, nothing seems to happen in-game; the door just magically opens up. For the most part, it seems like the player might as well be a ghost. This is because, from a technical perspective, you are. The game engine is built so that you are essentially just flying a camera around, with animated arms being "painted" on the screen that only you can see. As far as the game engine is concerned, the player's viewpoint is just a camera. In some cases, the player's physical body might never actually be modeled or tracked in-game. In early games, this was considered an Acceptable Breaks from Reality, as rendering something that wasn't in view the majority of the time would be a waste of limited hardware resources. Also, many older raycasting engines had to purposefully limit vertical camera rotation to well under Â±45Â° in order to minimize perspective distortion artifacts. However, as hardware has become more powerful and software more sophisticated, this trope can become particularly jarring. Often, even games that have the option of first-person and third-person views, like the 3D The Elder Scrolls and Fallout games, will render the player character model in third-person but have it disappear in first-person. Another reason is that most GPUs and graphics APIs tend to clip geometry that's closer to the edge of the screen, hence the reason why in most cases using the same third-person model for a first-person camera would result in visual artifacts. Modders who write first-person camera hacks for third-person games such as Grand Theft Auto would disable the head model to keep it from displaying stray polygons or getting in the way of the camera. Also, the reason for using a separate view model is that animations and weapon or item positions on a third-person model tend to look jittery or awkward when viewed on a first-person camera, as well as so that models that are close to or held by the player, eg. guns, can be given more detail. The latter also goes with racing simulators which use separate, more intricately detailed interior models whenever a cockpit camera is used; the interior on a third-person car model is usually of lower quality, or in some cases do not exist at all (especially with early racing games where the first-person "interior" is just a two-dimensional sprite). To combat this, some FPS games have begun to include more and more model parts of your body. For example, if you go to open a door, you'll actually see an animation of a hand reaching out and turning the handle. You sometimes will also see your body in cutscenes, such as if the player is knocked down by an explosion and you briefly see your legs as you're bodily thrown back. However, as soon as the cutscene is over, and you have control of your character once again, you'll find your legs mysteriously absent once more. As a consequence this trope is rather less jarring if used in conjunction with Unbroken First-Person Perspective, as at least the third-person cutscenes don't remind players of its presence. See also Invisible Anatomy. If there is a model, but it lacks a full set of animations, see Model Dissonance.

However, her model vanishes the minute you go back to first-person view. You can also aim her arm cannon straight down, but you'll never see her feet. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption not only allows you to see Samus' lower body and arms when she's sitting in her spaceship, you can also view her skeleton when using the X-ray visor.

First-Person Ghost / int_28b53408	comment	Articles about the development of F.E.A.R. drove this point home. You can see the main character's feet, even while performing kung-fu. You also need to use your hands to climb ladders and swim, although curiously not to press buttons or open doors. If you look down you can see your legs, and the game actually renders your character model in the game world. There's even a unique character model for the player character, even though the player never is actually able to see themselves fully. In F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin there are a small number of mirrors where you can see your character model. They also changed it so that you do have to use your hands to press buttons, turn wheels, and move objectsâ€”but still not to open doors, unless you like to loudly bash them open with melee attacks, since that was a mechanic added in the first game's expansions and kept for the rest of the series.

First-Person Ghost / int_30940081	comment	Grand Theft Auto V was re-released in 2014 and 2015 with the introduction of a first-person view option, among other improvements, for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows. Besides using the same third-person model in the first-person mode, Rockstar opted for using separate weapon and movement animations in order to better adapt combat to a different view, and also as recycling the same third-person animations would be awkward in first-person. The addition of a first-person camera mode for GTA V marked a break in Rockstar's tradition of not producing any first-person shooters. In addition, it was first proposed during early development for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, but memory limitations kept them from doing so.

First-Person Ghost / int_310b3174	comment	Operation Flashpoint is one of the earliest games that does an honest attempt at not doing this trope. Of course, it'd invoke some really obvious Fridge Logic if you couldn't, since it also allowed you to use a third-person view. Its Spiritual Successor, the ARMA series, go a step further and enable you to rotate your character's head independently of where their weapon is facing. In ARMA 3, your character has impressive control over his movementsâ€”from leaning, three levels of standing, crouching, and laying down based on what cover you're shooting from, to being able to choose whether your character keeps the weapon up at the low ready, the high ready, or simply slung across his torso, it can be a challenge at first to remember all the controls to manipulate you character's rendered body.

First-Person Ghost / int_33dd1d8f	comment	In Half-Life, the "thirdperson" console command would allow one to have a third-person view over Gordon, with a complete model, though you still can't see anything other than your arms in first-person mode. Amusingly, in the Expansion Pack Half-Life: Blue Shift, Barney Calhoun still uses Gordon's model, and in Half-Life 2, using the same command would result in seeing just Gordon's arms. On another occasion, using the developer console to play Half-Life 2 in third-person led to the revelation that Gordon Freeman is apparently a vaguely humanoid glass statue that doesn't move so much as glide around. Garry's Mod can have this subverted by player made addons and gamemodes by rendering the legs and torso (and arms/hands if using a swep that makes you unarmed), although there can be the occasional artifact depending on the player model.

First-Person Ghost / int_43f52aa9	comment	In Oblivion, you cannot see anything but your arms in first-person. Additionally, you cast a shadow in third-person view but not in first-person. This gets even more strange when the horse you are riding always casts a shadow so if you look at the ground while riding your horse in first-person you will see the shadow of a horse with no rider. For PC users, the TFC console command gives you a ufo-camera option, using this in first-person will auto-set the camera into third-person pan without actually zooming out, leaving two arms floating in midair. More egregiously, you don't see your arms moving when swimming in first-person. Also, there are actually differences in the animations between first and third-person, noticeable with where the character holds their weapons between the two modes (as with pretty much every complaint about Oblivion, there's a DLC that addresses this).

First-Person Ghost / int_66b7b92d	comment	Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast has much like the first HL2 example. Like the preceding Jedi Knight, Kyle is fully modeled and animated in third-person, but has the usual "arms only" thing when in first-person. While the lightsaber in Jedi Knight was properly modeled and animated for both first- and third-person (though very much meant to be used in third-person, even having a toggle option in the menu to automatically switch to third-person when using the saber then back with anything else), in Jedi Outcast, trying to use the lightsaber in first-person turns Kyle into nothing but a pair of hands with maybe half of their attached forearms fading out into nothing, gripping onto said lightsaber and using the third-person animations. By the time of Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, which added dual and double-bladed lightsabers, the devs completely gave up on trying to make convincing first-person animations for the saber and forced the third-person perspective when using it.

First-Person Ghost / int_6c1d09b3	comment	Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas both inherited many of the above examples from their Elder Scrolls sister series. Fallout 3 had an additional weird instance whenever you used zoom with a non-scoped weapon. In third-person the character would use the weapons sights like they should, but in first-person the camera just zooms and the players arms don't move at all. New Vegas fixed this issue, but added a lot more of the "differing first-person to third-person animation thing" with its melee weapons. New Vegas also made this a bit worse with its card minigames. Even though they're presented in-universe as your character playing on the in-game table, you still never see your hands â€” the cards just appear to float whenever you play one or shuffle the deck.

First-Person Ghost / int_755b343f	comment	Halo: Games from Halo 2 onward have visible legs. It's perfectly possible not just to look down and see your thigh, but sometimes even to stick a plasma grenade to it. And in Halo 3, if someone leaves the party while playing co-op campaign online, the game freezes and glitches allowing you to look down directly into your torso. Games from Halo 4 onward totally avert this trope. Not only can you see your character's legs when you look down, but every onscreen prompt (i.e. "press X to open door", "press X to activate console") is fully depicted onscreen, with your character reaching out and interacting with the world. That said, modding reveals that the model you see in (at least) 4 isn't the same model everyone else sees. If the player replaces their model with a different hacked one, then the first-person view will still show the default Spartan arms while the third-person view will show the hacked model.

Additionally, he frequently interacts with the environment physically; you can see his hands turning valves, pushing buttons, etc. The game adds several other features to avoid this trope, such as Miles visibly putting his hand on a wall when close to one, and leaving bloody footprints if he walks through a puddle of gore. Also, Miles' shadow is synchronised to his body movements, meaning that if he holds the camera his shadow also does. His model, however, has an invisible head, making it easier for the decapitation death animations to play. The invisible head is still picked up in the shadows, however. You can see your character's legs in its sequels, Outlast II and The Outlast Trials.

First-Person Ghost / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: In the first three games in the series (Arena, Daggerfall, and Morrowind), only the player character's hands and arms are visible in first-person mode. Morrowind is the first in the series to offer a third-person playing mode. In Oblivion, you cannot see anything but your arms in first-person. Additionally, you cast a shadow in third-person view but not in first-person. This gets even more strange when the horse you are riding always casts a shadow so if you look at the ground while riding your horse in first-person you will see the shadow of a horse with no rider. For PC users, the TFC console command gives you a ufo-camera option, using this in first-person will auto-set the camera into third-person pan without actually zooming out, leaving two arms floating in midair. More egregiously, you don't see your arms moving when swimming in first-person. Also, there are actually differences in the animations between first and third-person, noticeable with where the character holds their weapons between the two modes (as with pretty much every complaint about Oblivion, there's a DLC that addresses this). There are mods for Skyrim that avert this, by simply having your third-person model rendered while in first-person as well, except for the head (and arms when equipping weapons).

Entering "cl_first_person_uses_world_model 1" in the console sets the first-person view into a mode in which, as the command would suggest, the view model is replaced with an eye-level view of the player's world model, allowing the player to see their entire body and their own shadow, along with any of the many fashion items the player may have decked on their character.

First-Person Ghost / int_c4a1d59e	comment	The Call of Duty series, in their multiplayer matches, feature an interesting example: the players bodies are rendered separately, so that the third-person version you see of another player isn't the exact same thing that they see in the first-person. While most the time the two match up more-or-less seamlessly, some interesting things can happen when they don't match up; for example, most modern CoD games will "smooth out" the player's third-person movement to look more fluid and natural, rather than the herky-jerky movement that would result if you showed their actual first-person movement. Because of lag, what one character shows in third-person might be delayed from what they're doing in first-person. This can lead to situations where you get shot by someone who appears to not even be facing you; their bullets will seem to exit the barrel at an angle to hit you. This is especially common when using riot shields to keep an attacker at bay, with the killcam frequently showing you failing to track a hostile moving around behind the shield to shoot you, when from your perspective you clearly kept it pointed at him the whole time and he apparently responded by just cheating and shooting through it anyway. If you are hit with a flashbang grenade, your character will appear to cover their eyes and shake their head, with their gun pointed at the ground and off to the side. However, from the first-person perspective, your gun is still up, meaning that you can still shoot and kill the person who flashbanged you. Going prone actually takes into account the position of your limbs in multiplayer; it's possible to be "prone blocked" and be unable to turn without standing up or at least crawling to the side to put some distance between yourself and the wall if your legs are up against it. Also played with in the single player campaign of Black Ops. When the game first starts, the player is strapped to a chair in front of several television monitors. You can see your character's face on the monitors, his arms strapped to the chair, and the like.

This leads to objects being visibly in your hands while carried but the shadow projected is just the object floating unsuspended in mid air.

Not only can you see your character's legs when you look down, but every onscreen prompt (i.e. "press X to open door", "press X to activate console") is fully depicted onscreen, with your character reaching out and interacting with the world. That said, modding reveals that the model you see in (at least) 4 isn't the same model everyone else sees. If the player replaces their model with a different hacked one, then the first-person view will still show the default Spartan arms while the third-person view will show the hacked model.

First-Person Ghost / int_df76da7e	comment	Mirror's Edge and its reboot Mirror's Edge Catalyst let you see Faith's legs. Good thing, too, because the game requires a lot of precision platforming. Additionally, you can see her full arms, shoulders, and torso, body position permitting (your camera is constrained to the directions Faith's eyes could actually be looking at any moment). And as far as interaction goes: When you press a button, she actually presses the button. Mirror's Edge provides a good example of why this trope exists in the first place: designing animations that will look convincing from a first-person perspective is a very different task from animating a character in third-person, and the character animations in the game that look impressive in the game's intended gameplay mode look rather stiff and awkward when the game is hacked to play in third-person. The use of Nvidia Ansel in Catalyst shows that not only is there a full model, it's rendered in an extremely high level of detail.

First-Person Ghost / int_e5da0fa0	comment	Not just FPS games suffer from this. The Myst games are a series of first-person puzzle games that had a First-Person Ghost whose only visible appendage was a floating hand cursor. Justified in Myst and Riven due to movement limitations, but by the time Myst III: Exile rolled around, the player could not only look down and see that they had no feet, but also wind up standing on thin air just off of the edge of a cliff. It's worse in Myst IV: Revelation when the hand cursor gained a more realistic look. You could even inexplicably tint the hand strange, unearthly colors other than 'skin tone' or 'heavily pigmented skin tone'. The developers thankfully fixed this in Myst V: End of Ages. All of this was done in the name of maintaining a Featureless Protagonist. Obduction, also made by Cyan Worlds, does the same thing for the same reason, but includes the option of adding a generic male or female shadow, which if nothing else makes screenshots look marginally more realistic. While most of The Lost Crown isn't first-person, there are a few such scenes in which objects must be handled and Nigel's arms are nowhere to be seen. This was probably deliberate, as it makes a story about ghosts just a little creepier not to avert this trope.

First-Person Ghost / int_f2db390d	comment	In Human Head Studios' Prey, the very first scene in the game shows the player looking at their own reflection in a mirror. Later in the game you can see yourself in other mirrors/reflections/portals. However, you can't see your feet.

First-Person Ghost / int_f59e607f	comment	Duke Nukem 3D was one of the first FPS games with mouselook, and therefore one of the first examples of this trope. Of course, in early versions, you could see both of Duke's feet, but only when attacking with them (the left foot was the Quick Melee and the right foot the melee Emergency Weapon), but the effect was closer to making Duke perform Hopak than actually watching him walk from his own perspective.

First-Person Ghost / int_f915263c	comment	Techland's Dying Light also lets you see Kyle Crane's body from the neck down. Much like Mirror's Edge, this is fitting considering that the game involves a lot of platforming and parkour movements across rooftops. Not only that, but every single interactions in the game will have Crane reaching out to do it such as opening doors (the game will also have two different animations that depends whether the door is locked or not), searching objects for materials (which also differs based on the object being searched), sliding, climbing ladders, etc. In its sequel, Dying Light 2 Stay Human, Techland improved the formula and gave the game's protagonist, Aiden Caldwell, an even better first-person body than Crane's.

First-Person Ghost / int_fd8ef85e	comment	Left 4 Dead lets you see your feet and legs (including the infected if you play as one) when you look down, but they don't appear if your graphic settings are too low or if you are playing on Xbox 360. Humorously, the height at which your body is situated makes it look like your arms are sprouting out of your neck, at least from your point of view. However, this function was removed in the sequel Left 4 Dead 2: the complexity of procedural animation system for animating the Jockey riding a Survivor, combined with the need to render more zombies at one time and save memory for the Xbox 360 led to legs getting cut.
