I enjoy both, but now that VR and Motion are a reality, I only have interest in 1st person games that take advantage of that tech.

3rd parson I am fine with TV and Game pad, but prefer VR + Game pad.

I feel like 1st person is better suited to simulation type experiences where I am supposed to live the story, while 3rd person is better for experiencing the story of other characters.

Examples of what I would like to see in the future.

Halo Infinite - Windows Mixed Reality + Motion

Killzone - PSVR 2 + PS Move 2

Horizon 2 - PSVR 2 + DS5

God of War 2 - PSVR 2 + DS5

Gears of War 6 - Windows Mixed Reality + Xbox Gamepad

Metroid - Switch VR + Motion

Mario Odyssey 2 - Switch VR + Gamepad

I concur that it depends on the game. Mostly I like third person, though, especially if I get to make my own character and customize their appearance. That's kind of wasted in first person.

Third person. A first person view would be enough to ruin an otherwise good game for me.

Third-person btw a large margin.
It depends on the game though (exsample : doom is as it should be).

Third person all the way. I feel as the first person view really limits the character as if it dosent exist. Like shooters, your nothing more than a gun. Interact with an object like a door, just opens like if I was psychic(not all games but I really hate it). Character movement is also so limited that makes it less immersive, like dodging is nothing more than walking a bit faster. If you do happen to see the arms move is always so wooden as to not brake the camera view or shake it to much. It just brakes the immersion for me.

As much as it pains me i think im skiping cyberpunk 2077 just for that.

I don't mind first-person but i prefer third-person

Depends on the game and its mechanics. Devs choose the one that better fits their vision for the game.

I like first person but I understand 3rd person is more accessible to some people.

Yeah it does depend on the game, would want to play a fast shooter in third person, but overal I often tend to like third person games better.

never liked playing ES in 3rd person cause it demands precise aim when it coming to using skills/attacking. In some moments of the game the use of 3rd person would be better, but for combat, 1st person fits better.
