Why isn't destiny a Third Person Shooter?

Bear in mind this is coming from a Mass Effect 3 multiplayer junkie, but I've always found exploration and combat to be much more immersive and visceral in first-person. We've already seen stylistic flair with the camera pulling back so the player can witness their own awesome special powers; it seems to me a nice balance is being struck between pimping your kit and keeping the action intimate.

But I guess the short answer would be because it's less exciting.
