Saw this thread
http://www.shinobilifeonline.com/index.php/topic,59.0.html and I saw it got locked so I couldn't put my two cents in.
Also, sorry if I'm breaking any rules by creating this thread, I'm actually not too sure why it wasn't originally posted in the suggestions to begin with.
First person in almost any game except shooters is usually terrible and painful to use. The only game I have ever played and used first person is Arma. What makes Arma different is how they actually made their first person. Instead of placing the camera somewhere in your neck and drawing a GUI, they actually put the camera directly in the models eyes, and stop there. In Arma, you see what everyone else sees.
Arma also adds a touch of realism by letting you look around. If you hold alt and move your mouse, your head moves. You can look down at your chest, feet, and arms.

Implementing a first and third person camera would be on the easier than most of the other things needed to complete this game, but it would be nice and having a realistic 1st person mode in an MMO would be a game changer.
