As often as I can, I go for first person simply because it creates a "more immersive experience." In largely third person games like WoW, you never see the detail of everything in the world, including the gear and faces of the people you're playing with. Everything is from as much of a distance as possible to expand your view. First person sacrifices a lot of practical benefit obviously, but the level of immersion is unparalleled. You see the sky more often, small details become more present, and the people you play with become more recognizable and humanized.
