Alright I'm a close to normal guy, but I've put almost 21,000 hours into the Fallout series and I would say about 3/4 of those 21,000 hours I played as a female, and now I find myself playing as a female in almost any game you can. My friends think I'm weird or quote "gay" for doing so. So I guess what am asking is what do you guys and gals think of it?
"Who should I be now, oh, I know, I will be a (insert random race) who likes to use (insert random weapon(s))"
i like to build some background story when i build a char
i like to add i more thing, sorry for the triple post.
also it's fun to change some obvious things. like for example the friendly thief:
one would normally make a khajiit or wood elf for their skills. but it's also fun to just make a kleptomanic high elve. he would then be very high of themselves because.. well hey, there is even high in the name of my race. (at this point already thinking like him =P) and he will do everything to keep his name for the good of the people but mostly himselve. because he is kleptomanic, he feels deep inside that he is wrong and just leaves everyone behind whit just a penny. he is constant bringing people stuff he stole back to people he once has stole from. NOT to his rightfull owners of course but he switches all their stuff. he can't imagion what will happen if his, his name will be in the same sentence as stealing? oh no, he has to much proud for that.
and thats basically how i make a character for those kinda games.
now i have to go and instal oblivion again, to make and probably play him.
to just make a kleptomanic
All of my characters are like that. Half of the books in Skyrim are sitting in my house. I have around 800 iron arrows, but I keep stealing them from guards. Because I want more. I don't even use bows.
I don't mind playing as a female character at all as well especially if it's online, you can get free stuff.
As a girl, I usually play with a female avatar in a game (obviously), especially in mmo's, but in single-player games where you can choose between either gender, I sometimes choose male characters.
For me, the character that I control in a game rarely reflects who I am personally, but is rather a character that I've created and am role-playing, so to speak. So it doesn't really matter whether it's a male or female or whatever character, because it's not supposed to be a mirror of your own self.
Especially in games where the choice between male and female main character has an impact on the story, such as in KotOR 2, or provides with a different set of skills, such as in countless RPGs, I tend to play first as a woman, then as a man.
Besides, I love having my character strip to his waist and punch everybody and everything with his bare fists. And you don't get quite the same effect if a female character is doing it...
I dont feel like a ****** when i play as woman espacially in fallout. I guess im a sexist
I admit, I have done so before, but only in Monster Hunter and Mass Effect 3. But I think everyone has a profile for each gender in RPG's, but I could be wrong.
I don't really care if a man plays like a woman or viceversa. What I do know is that I'd rather play as a male in most games because they don't look as scrawny and (frankly, weak) as females. Dunno, guess I'm sexist.
'specially in games like TES. All hail the Argonian Male!

Speaking of Skeerim...I love that they give the females matching outfits that aren't basically armored bikinis
