I get where ayrt is coming from, so looking at it this way - 1st person is MC telling you their story, 3rd person is fly on the wall - still makes aesthetic sense to me. I'm with ayrt, I don't want one person telling me their story, I want to experience the whole of everyone's interconnected tales without perspective shift, so 3rd person omniscient is my number 1 A+ every time.

like, I get where 1st person works, especially with an unreliable narrator, but whe I read for fun I kind of don't want to have to think about the artistic value of the unreliable narrator and how they see their world even if it's wrong - and doubly-so if the MC is an ass who I hate with every fiber of my being. Do not want. I'm here for sweeping tales of everyone everywhere.

AYRT I feel like there's more 3rd person limited available than 3rd person omniscient, though, which introduces the same problems. Like...even if you're a fly on the wall, you're still mainly following the protagonist, right?

And 3rd person omniscient CAN be really good, I agree, but some of the categories under that are chapter-by-chapter POV, which I'm definitely not always in the mood for (but to be fair, I LOVE when they do hit the spot), or clumsy POV shifts between the characters and who they're following.

is there? that's unfortunate. I cut my teeth on Watership Down and Lord of the Rings, so anything that can't rise to that narraive omniscience just doesn't work for me.

which may explain my lack of patience for anything published in the 2000s hm.
