Men Play Female Character in VG, reason

[Solaris17]

Why the hell is my dashing rogue or wily mage looking like a gym rat bodybuilder who is on steroids 24/7.

Dost thou even lift?

If the reasons were obvious, this thread wouldn't exist.

It's her, that's obsious.

What i've so far (page 2 end) i found same things i think, men design are not good as much as their girly's counterpart.

Me i will always get the girlplay bc of fun ( i'm a funny man), and as the design and voice is a good point added that's all perfect.

I feel good playing my girly character instead being a man like IRL, i don't think it will change since it became like that since Oblivion's time approx (my first PC in 2055 for Far Cry, 6600-GT).

I think you’re mistaken here. There were no male or female characters in Oblivion, only eldritch potato monstrosities in various levels of “go mad from witnessing it” horrifying.

Possible, idk why i remember Oblivion, but year's good (2005>)

Or i know, it's bc they had this face generation like Skyrim with tons of stuff and thinked sex was available........ and also i lost my time to mod it instead playing and have not real memory of it, my first modded game !

…well, I thought it was a good joke.

I think it was.

I remember Bethesda wanted to give you as many options for character creation in Oblivion as there are stars in the universe, in which they probably succeeded. Some (or most?) of these options should have never seen the light of day, though.

I had to check !

I typically play as a guy because I am a guy.. Sometimes I play as the female, if something about her appealed to me somehow

 

[[crs]]

I always play female characters if I get a chance, easier on the eye, and I'd rather look at women than men

 

[freeagent]

I am literally struggling to come up with games that I own that let you choose. Maybe Resident Evil, that's about it. I choose the female driver in FH5 straight off the hop though lol..

Female faces were so much better than males in Oblivion. Males either looked like mad demons, complete nutjobs or utter retards in there. Females could also but you could also get the face somewhat 'beautiful'.

In the first re remake on GameCube, they introduced jiggle physix for the boobies.

So I played Jill. PS1 I played Chris.

You need to go back to the Days of Street Fighter 2, Fatal Fury/Art of Fighting/King of Fighters, then Sega Saturn/PS1 with DOA for "bump mapping"


(1st time it was mentioned in this commercial lol)

DOA is a great series. DOA 4 was awesome and was when they really got serious with the boob physics.

The first game i recall them being jiggly in was KoF and Fatal Fury. i love me some neo-geo.

Just saw this doh

 

[Knight47]

I think lot of men gamers play female character in video games, i ask why, for which reasons !?

I do always...

They aren't female, they are Type2.

 

[AUTOEXEC.BAT]

Thats why i Play Rise/Shadow of the Tomb Raider...
Damn i like that ass

I also generally don't give a snack about my game char's sexual parameters (prolly because I'm bisexual). Girl, boy, dude, Walter White, Tonny, Marge Simpson, attack helicopter... whatever. Extraterrestrial/otherwise non-human protagonists are more fun anyway.

Now that I think of it, I want a mod that changes Tommy Vercetti to an alien.

GTA universe matchs well the guy/man main character, i remember GTA's demo i fall in love.

As of a GTA alien, why not, but a metamorphe, yes ?

Of course. It's a no-nonsense game about men for men. But I'm done being serious whilst playing games, I don't hunt achievements, I don't grind skills. I just do whatever I consider fun. And if playing as a half-naked 8' tall alien with heavy Puerto Rican accent fits my jam I just stop caring about the rest.

Imagine Lamar roasting that alien for having a "yee-yee ass haricut" when the haircut in question looks like a question mark rather than an actual hairjob.

In the end it's all about whether you enjoy it or not, no need to worry about justifying you own personal gaming choice because it's yours to make in the first place.

Indeed.

I don't mind sharing my reasons anyway. And this is utterly funny, I'm open about things most people are deadly afraid of being open about and yet, most acquaintances deem me mysterious. Humans are weird.

Far as I know, there are primarily two-and-a-half camps. I say two-and-a-half because typically two of them will overlap per person and it's kind of a grab bag which two ya get.

1. Women are sexy and men are not, so I wanna stare at a girl's butt for my ~40hr playthrough.
2. I'm heavy into roleplay and want to explore the implications of being female in any given world.
3. I'm in the closet and playing as a girl is a way for me to indulge in what I'm ashamed to admit to myself.

I rarely ever play girls because I tend to align pretty closely with my character in traits, mannerisms, etc during play and it's easier to settle into familiar skin. If I do play a girl, it's because I'm bored of playing a dude.

I see the path you'd take in Baldur's Gate !!!

Becoming the most as much possible an Octopus.

Never even considered this a title to obtain, let alone play. This genre is completely out of my character.

Mas mañana...

If theres an option, like assassins creed odyssey, I tend to play through a male character first. However, I usually end up playing both to see what differences there are. It's mostly due to curiosity.

I used to have a friend who would play only female characters in multi-player games, like MMO's and stuff. He used to say, people are more willing to give you a good trade if they think you're a woman.

SF4 they should have given the female boss character a different name.
