It varies. If it's similar to H1Z1, you can spot enemies behind you and over obstacles. But games like GMod DarkRP CS prefer a first-person view for immersion, while GTA 5 uses third person for better gameplay. In gunfights, I switch to first person for more control.
They generally focus more on the believability of movement in third-person games, such as how characters interact with uneven surfaces or climb ledges. Observing a character's motion in these games often appears unnatural, like floating through the environment. Nevertheless, some titles like FarCry 3 manage to achieve a more realistic feel.

It all hinges on the experience. MechWarrior Online, for instance, initially offered only first-person play, which made sense as a simulation game. Later they introduced third-person options, albeit with some limitations. Many players voiced concerns about the shift, citing benefits like better hill views. In such simulation titles, first-person remains my top preference, and ideally should be the sole choice. I’m comfortable with first-person games like Portal and third-person ones like Darksiders 2. Overall, I don’t have a strong bias in general. If a game is designed with a specific perspective in mind and functions well, that’s fine for me. The only style I dislike is fixed camera third-person views, reminiscent of older titles like Resident Evil or Devil May Cry—though those were so strong in other areas I adapted to them
