Not always no, it's not an exact science.
In general, knowing the perspective a game will use gives you a good idea of what to expect in terms of game play. It's all preconceptions people have likely based on what they’ve seen before in games they’ve either enjoyed or disliked.
I'd say it's pretty much the same with all other forms of media, like for example with actors and movies, when you hear Stallone's in it you know it's probably another generic action film or Rocky 46.
Either way, might be a good idea to make a new thread in General about this.

Ahh... well pretty much all the earlier RPGs were in first person, including two of the big three series, M&M and Wizardy.
Bloodlines was also FP, and incidentally, I haven't seen many isometric RPGs in a while...
And with that I'll shut up before a mod fry pans me for further derailing the thread.
