In a survival game of the fittest, you'll want to make sure you've got everything you can work to your advantage. For example, if you have the ability for a game's camera to cover more of the surrounding area, then playing a game in third person view will give you better back coverage.
However, when it comes to combat, it can be easier to see what's directly in front of you and judge better based on depth, meaning you hit with more strikes than you attempt.
In Grounded, insects like giant wolf spiders will chase you if they sniff at you, so the last thing you need is to float in an uncomfortable sight that makes it hard to know when it's going to strike. Making your base as good as possible is also aided by your perspective.
That is why it is convenient that the game allows you to play the game with both a first person point of view and a third person point of view. Each has their uses, but it's also a good accessibility option for those who prefer one over the other.
To switch between the two using a controller, you need to use the Down button on the D-Pad and a dial will appear. Using the right analog stick, hold the stick up and it will show you the option to switch between first and third person cameras.
On a keyboard setup, it's as easy as pressing the U key. This will then instantly switch between the two camera modes. You can also press Z to display the same wheel that you would see when using the controller, then press the button at the top of the wheel. If you want to re-link the quick switch action, you can do so in the Keyboard menu and change the keyboard shortcut for "Camera Mode Switch".
