What to do to switch to third-person in Manor Lords

The third-person in Manor Lords is a viewpoint that provides you exactly that: a third-person view of your community (Image via Steam)

You can enter third-person in Manor Lords at any moment, even after starting a new game.

All you need to do is click on the button with an eye icon next to your avatar's portrait in the upper-right corner of the screen. Upon doing so, you will be thrown into the world as a generic nobleman, free to roam and explore your surroundings.

The third-person perspective in Manor Lords, or Visit Mode, makes you realize how intricate the game actually is. The title is a visually stunning release, where walking from one settlement to the next, using a scenic route that crosses hills and rivers, is very relaxing.

There's not much else you can do in Visit Mode at the moment since, as of Early Access, you can only control a generic character rather than one who resembles your portrait.

For the time being, players can focus on expanding their settlement as much as possible. They can look into raising their influence, gaining some wealth, and increasing the lands under their claim.
