Hello all.
I have a question regarding the usage of bird's-eye view. I'm currently writing a walkthrough for a game and I'm not sure how to formulate a sentence.
The situation is like this:
You look at the world map from a bird's-eye view. So when you move your character around, left means west, up means north and so on.
What I had in mind is:
Since you get a bird's-eye view of the world map, when I say move left that means move west and so on.
VS
You look at the world map from a bird's-eye view so when I say move left that means move west and so on.
Are both of these sentences correct and do they hold the same meaning?
For first sentence, maybe put have instead of get?
Can bird's-eye view be interchangeable with bird's eye perspective in my case?
Thanks for your time and answers (and do point out any mistakes I made, particularly with punctuation, I have some problems with these since English isn't my native language and I didn't use "proper" English for over 4 years (interwebs

).
