Like with every just about every other Bethesda RPG I've played, I'll be doing Skyrim 1st person about 80-90% of the time. I feel I have more control that was to be honest although it's fun to see the little glitches and, errors going on on-screen in third-person, like when you're standing in front of a door 1st-person and in third you're partially through it.
Third for sneaking, scouting, and general movement.
First for precision aiming and hacking and the slashing.
I like them both and the animations are lovely especially on uneven terrain.

About equal parts both. I go into first person when I'm looting or speaking to people (smallish TV, it just helps me see things/faces better). I walk around in third person, and fight in both perspectives.
I'm glad that character animations finally look good in a Bethesda game.

I'll try with third since that's my preferred camera angle. But, Oblivion, Fallout 3 and New Vegas were all ass in third person, and from what I'm hearing Skyrim doesn't quite change that.
I wholeheartedly disagree. In fact, look at the post above yours. Trust me, the animations are TONS better.RatRace123 said:
Mostly first, but I like to go into third when I'm sneaking or trekking a long distance. Also just a good sense of what my character looks like. I only have crappy armor [small](just started, don't look at me for still using steel and iron armor!)[/small], but I still look awesome in it!
Well I prefer 3rd person for environment awareness so I use it for exploration, but somehow the combat gets alot worse because the character will just randomly move around as he swings... just so stupid.
Both.
I usually use 3rd person when I walk to places or to explore/find a zone that I haven't discovered yet,but most of the dungeons I do them in first person.Being "semi destruction",I kinda need first person to shoot those firebolts/fireballs more precisely.

I actually like third more than first. I like being able to see around me and such. I use first when I'm picking up items in an area where I need to be precise or if I'm looking for something small, but in combat I'm almost always in third.
Edit: I didn't even think about it, but I have a destruction based character too and I almost always fight in first person because the spells are hard to fire. Same with bows. I guess as melee I play in third.

Dont have the game yet(should arrive today!!!1), but I'm pretty sure I'll spend all my time in first person. From what I've seen in gameplay videos third person is still very awkward and makes it really hard to loot stuff.
1st person, unfortunately when being a werewolf you are always in 3rd person. So yeah, I play 1st person until the game requires me to be 3rd person.
Just like most poeple in this thread, I'll usually turn third-person when just roaming the world, since it just looks and feels much cooler, but as for combat, exploration and interatcion, it's gotta be first-person.
What I really want is a mod that adds the third person model in first person. That way I can see myself being awesome while being awesome.
They said the same thing about Oblivion and FO:3. They were wrong then too.Glass Joe the Champ said:
