Back in the old days when I played EQ (1999-2004) I always played in 1st person view.
Only tried 3rd when wanted to take a screenshot of something.

Playing EQ2 and WoW for a short time, forced me to use 3rd person view due to much higher intensity of danger in surrounding area - constantly roaming mobs, very fast re-spawn rates etc. Plus, its practically impossible to play WoW in 1st person for me - when I do, I feel that my view of my surrounding area got somehow reduced

Going back to EQ1 I have tried hard to play it as I did EQ2 AND WoW, but unfortunately EQ1 3rd view camera is heavily obsolete, and no where as fluid and easy to controled as EQ2 or WoW camera is.

I had no idea there was a 3rd person option. but i first played EQmac and my friend says there is no 3rd person view. i will probably keep playing in 1st. it seems easier.

3rd person ALL the time.

I love the idea of EQ in first person, but I'm a mouse look person, and I haven't found a mouse-look setting that gets my head-turning rate fast enough (its like an order of magnitude too slow for me!). Mouse sensitivty is maxed, its just not enough by a longshot!
