How can you be a character when you're seeing it from a distance?

First person is the only way to have immersion. At least let the players choose.

I respect your opinion, but I disagree. I much prefer an over the shoulder third person perspective to being a floating set of arms. Being able to see my character interact physically with the world and move around in it is more immersive to me, personally.
