Once you have learnt to control one car however, you can drive pretty much anything with just a few minor adjustments. This is exactly the same with video games. Once you have learnt to play one FPS, then you can manage just about any other game that is controlled in the same way. Most of the time, you can even move the controls around in the options menu if you can\u2019t handle the subtle differences too.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Why is Proteus a good place to learn FPS controls?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>I learnt how first person shooters worked gradually because they were still a new thing when I was young. The first games of their kind weren\u2019t even really three dimensional so you didn\u2019t need to worry about pointing your view point up or down.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1362\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Proteus04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1362\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1362\" src=\"http:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Proteus04.jpg\" alt=\"Proteus creepy statues\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/chaotic-tortoise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Proteus04.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/chaotic-tortoise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Proteus04-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1362\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Although there&#8217;s no stress, Proteus can still be a bit creepy when the sun goes down.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Many veteran game players have therefore learnt these systems by being chased by demons, desperately trying to scramble out of alien-invaded research facilities and a slightly younger generation has probably learnt it by fighting in the digital Second World War of the early Call of Duty games. It would be difficult to recommend any of that as your first first-person experience partly because a lot of these older games have not aged well, but also because if you are still even slightly unsure of video games, jumping straight into a frantic FPS could just kill your interest entirely. Not being able to handle your character whilst also being shot at is incredibly furstrating.<\/p>\n<h2><b>So what is Proteus?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Over the last week or two, I\u2019ve been talking about some of the more typical triple-A games that the industry churns out, but games are so much more diverse than that. There\u2019s a good chance that you\u2019ve walked past big billboard ads for <a title=\"Saints Row IV\" href=\"http:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/saints-row-iv\/\" target=\"_blank\">Saints Row IV<\/a>, <a title=\"The Last of Us\" href=\"http:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/the-last-of-us\/\">The Last of Us<\/a> and most recently <a title=\"Evolve\" href=\"http:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/evolve\/\" target=\"_blank\">Evolve<\/a> and there\u2019s a tendency for people to assume that those blockbuster style titles are all we\u2019ve got.<\/p>\n<p>Proteus by a similar token is a bad game to hold up and try to show you that other types of games exist. In the alternative indie-games community it is still considered a bit of an oddity, but it is a good way of showing you that gaming is at least a varied landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Proteus is probably the first world that I will get utterly lost in when virtual reality becomes more mainstream. It is a game exclusively about exploration and discovering spectacle. The world changes with each new game that you start and there\u2019s something almost meditative about the landscapes it produces.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1364\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Proteus02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1364\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1364\" src=\"http:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Proteus02.jpg\" alt=\"Proteus moon\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/chaotic-tortoise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Proteus02.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.davidhing.com\/chaotic-tortoise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Proteus02-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1364\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The day and night cycle gives Proteus a constantly shifting mood.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Meditative might be the quality that makes Proteus perfect for a newer player to these style of games.
