So I have been skimming through stories and have read others fanfictions for other games for the last few years. Everyone uses either first or third person point of view (sometimes alternating), so my question: what is your narrative mode and is there are reason behind you using it?

Third person is my usual preference. I'm trying out first person for my Destiny stories. I find that first person works better if your goal is to get an individual's perspective in detail. Third person works if you want to deal with a situation more objectively and include information that the main character may not be privy to. It really depends on what sort of presentation I'm going for.
