So, I'm going to move the whole project over to Unity for higher performance and a scrolling map, along with good lighting and 3D models once I get a good enough computer. I also came up with a SCP-173 design I REALLY like, but it's going to have so many details that won't be visible in a top-down perspective, so, I'm considering making it a first-person SCP game; but I want your opinions. Please keep in mind, the 173 model I will be making is incredibly detailed and I want to show it off in its full glory rather than only the top of it's head.
Pros of Top-Down perspective:
-Added dimension makes game a bit more challenging.
-Adds unique features, such as being able to see through walls and doors.
Cons of Top-Down perspective:
-Unable to see 3D models in their entirety
-Less of a horror atmosphere than a First-Person perspective
-Less immersive
Pros of a First-Person perspective:
-Able to see and appreciate detailed models better
-Unable to see through doors, increasing the terror levels
-More immersive
-Lights affect gameplay more than a Top-Down perspective
-Runs better
Cons of a First-Person perspective:
-Makes the game more of a SCP: Containment Breach clone than it was with a Top-Down perspective, thus decreasing the amount of attention and praise it may get by a vast majority
