First-Person is a vantage point that attempts to simulate looking through a game character's eyes. It is most commonly found in first-person shooters, racing games, and visual novels, and to a lesser extent in other genres, such as RPGs, 3D platformers, and adventure games.
Who needs 2D when we've got 3D? 3D, or 3 dimensions, is what we're used to seeing in almost every game these days, letting us do all sorts of awesome stuff like run in circles!
The player character is seen at a distance from a number of different possible perspective angles. There is generally a movable camera but it can also be in a fixed position. It most commonly refers to a viewpoint behind the player character.
Characters controlled by the game for players to interact with, as opposed to player characters which are controlled by whomever is playing the game.
Video game combat in which combat actions are performed in real-time, rather than through a turn-based structure.
Collecting objects in a game such as weapons, armor, items, and currency. Loot is often associated with RPG games and MMOs with RPG elements.
A gameplay mechanic allowing players to store their items and freely carry them around.
From Beat-em-ups to fighting games to modern FPS, one dude hitting another has made an enjoyable pastime.
An umbrella term for any sexual orientation or gender identity that is not straight.
Games that have an open gameplay structure that allow players to interact with the world as they choose.
