I'm not a big fan of first person anything. My experience with FPP Adventure games have led me to the conclusion that they generally rely on puzzles over characters and dialogue to forward the plot that often results in a feeling of utter desolation throughout them. In addition I personally find FPP very disorienting and least immersive of all perspectives, with the perception of your surrounding environment being considerably narrow and an unreal sense of movement that feels as if you're floating around rather than walking.

So summing up, while I wouldn't write off a FPP game just because it utilizes said perspective, it would be rowing against current for my interest and time.
