Although "you" is the generally recognized literary pronoun for second-person, the idea is not to address the reader (or player) directly as much as it is to assume the character
is the reader, who is then observed and described through the eyes of another entity. The difference between third-person is that here, the observer is supposed to be an involved actor--the pronoun "you" comes from the idea that the character is being directly spoken to by another. Books "cheat" in this sense by faling back to the invisible, non-interactive observer, but keep the tone of addressing the character like they were in the room.
Second-first person view would be, for example, the shopkeeper's point of view when you walk in to buy something.
