Peak has intense movement physics made to capture the struggle of climbing from a first-hand perspective. The effects while climbing around the corners, ragdolling of the character, and getting dizzy upon exhaustion are a part of it. While this adds to the surrealism, it might turn troubling for some people. Players on the Steam forum complained about motion sickness while playing the game. It is both a compliment and a challenge for the developers. You can feel the real struggle of climbing through your screen, but it turns out to be a bit too much for some players. As a form of remedy, players have demanded that a 3rd person mode be included in the game so that it becomes inclusive for people of all kinds. In this way, most players would be able to enjoy the game, but whether it will be added or not is the real question.
Peak game 3rd person mode requested by players: Is it coming soon?
A developer has acknowledged the demand for 3rd person mode in forum discussions on Steam. However, this does not guarantee that they will include it in the game. Before getting your hopes high, it should be noted that no declarations have been made in this regard from the developers’ end. There are still other ways in which you can experience the game in 3rd person mode. You can use third-party mods to toggle the 3rd person mode for Peak. You will need two mods precisely for the game to feel more comfortable in 3rd person mode. Both the mods can be fetched from thunderstore.io, and we will provide details and a link for both separately.
The stable camera mod: This mod will stabilize the camera wobble and provide a contextual third-person view. The other factors that you can control with this mod are head clipping, character ragdoll, dizzy effect, and shake effect. This mod is of great help for people suffering from motion sickness while playing. Even without switching to 3rd person mode, you can feel more comfortable while playing.
3rd person mode toggle: As the name suggests, this mod adds the option to play from a third-person perspective. You can also zoom in and out to suit your needs.
