Literally cannot find it in myself to play any game where I have to be a female character. It doesn't feel right

I'm in the same boat. I feel like I'm missing out on some potentially great games, but what can a man do?

That's not what he was asking for. All he said was that developers should allow the player to create their avatar and tailor the experience around that fact, instead of coming up with their own shit and expecting the player to just swallow it without chewing.

I normally play them due to the casting animations, I don't know why but females have really nice casting animations 80% of the time. I also love playing as a nelf/twi'lek and selling my body to anyone who wants to fuck, having my character ravaged from behind by a giant cock is really hot.

"Their own shit" is the fucking narrative of the game. And it can't be detailed to any significant degree if the writers don't know who and what the main character is going to be.

The only place you're going to get a decent story about a character you create is tabletop gaming

This one is the absolute worst and shows exactly what type of person they are. The second they utter these words you get carte blanche to verbally destroy them for being complete perverts.

Who the fuck stares at a character's ass while gaming? This would objectively make you a worse player because you'd be distracted 24/7.

The men who pick male characters so they DON'T stare at their asses would thus logically be better players by way of better situational awareness. More proof that men are superior again.

For games where it doesn't matter i.e. Dark Souls I play as a girl because its more pleasing to look at

For games like Fallout playing as a girl is awkward because you get hit on by male characters so i'd rather play as a dude

>>256658297
I play as a certain gender depending on my stereotypes on what would be better for the class. Archer would definitely be female as I think as female's to be more agile, flexible etc. A speed class also I would play as a female. If I'm playing a tank/Great sword type character than I will pick a male. It's just based off of my stereotypes and hell, having a bit of variety in playthrough's are great either way.

>>256658297
>being a homosexual

How does it feel, OP?
>>
Why I play females most of the time in games when given the option

in a game with character creation there are usually only 2 options, the buff, strong, bulky male. Or the thin, beautiful, delicate female.

I am 6'1 and weigh 150lbs I am quite thin and do not really think of myself as fitting into that Beef McLargehuge category for males.

as such I usually pick the female character since they match my body structure more closely in relative size and mass.

In games where it is possible to play a male character that isn't ripped as shit and just over the top in muscle mass I tend to make a thinner male and play happily.

This is especially true in fantasy games since I tend to want to play the wizard or spellcaster classes and it never made sense to me that a spellcaster would be bench pressing three times his IQ every day at the gym before going out and casting fireball

tldr: male characters to buff, females less buff, I like that better

>>256668060
Why would you want your character to match your irl body in any way? You are yourself all day, don't you want to control something different for awhile? That is why I like playing female, or BUff McHugearms, or some fuck with blue skin. It's more fun to me
>>
>>256668060
I have no issues with any of the male or female character choices.
I am however, dissapointed in you for not wanting a muscle wizard. Remember that physical fitness aids mental fitness
>>
>>256668669
its not really about matching me

though I guess that kind of plays a part

its more about matching the kind of character I am playing
If I am playing a mage or wizard I don't want them to be huge and ripped, I want them to be scrawny and look like they spend their time reading books and practicing arcane shit rather than running 5 miles a day and working out at the gym.

If I am playing a raging berzerker then making a huge guy works fine since it fits the character.

the problem is in most games there is no distinction between the two in body shape which flares my autism
>>
>>256668937
just because someone is physically fit it doesn't mean their bicep has to be as thick as a tree trunk
