I’m not judging, I’m genuinely curious. The reason why I’m asking is because in this sort of games I like to make the character resemble me as much as possible in every aspect, so I’m just curious to know what is the motivation behind men that decide to play as a female character.
If its a 3rd person game and im gonna be looking at someones ass for 40 or so hours, im gonna make it an ass I enjoy seeing.
One of the weirdest people I ever knew said that exact thing about why he played a girl in Pokémon games. That dude was incredibly sus.
That’s weird. I was talking about custom made phat ass booty bitches on Ark. Aren’t the Pokemon protagonists rather young?
I believe they are canonically ten years old, yes. We were in college when he said that. I don’t know how deep this goes, I stopped talking to him soon after.
I think women are cool.
Making the exact same character in every game gets old after a while. Also boobs.
Also ass.
I play in 3rd person and I’m a ass man
This exactly. If I’m going to spend hours staring at or hearing a voice, if rather it be attractive to me.
Man-ass or male grunting are not my particular flavor of candy.
For me, it’s the voice. For a voiced character like V, it requires a very special talent to take you on a journey with them, to listen to their fear, pain, anger and despair. Cherami Leigh just does such a fantastic job of bringing V to life for me, of really bringing that raw emotion out and making it feel real!
Mass Effect was the same. Femshep Gang \m/
Why be me when I can be a pretty girl
Character customization is one of my favorite parts of the game. And to be honest dressing up a “hot” woman is more fun than a guy to me.
Also I like looking at a woman more than a man. So there’s that too.
Cause I prefer looking at a woman instead of a man.
You get to build your own big titty goth girls.
As probably a generic “dude” as one can be, I like playing female characters because it gives me a chance to be someone I’m not. I play games to remove myself from the real world for a bit, and playing a male character feels too much like self-insertion.
It’s weird, but being forced into playing from a “self” perspective I find to be less enjoyable. I like being told a story, and getting to participate in it, but I dont like when the story feels like it’s supposed to be about myself, rather than a character.
Cause being a dwarf isn’t an option.

For cyber Karl!
I make my V an attractive and slim woman with a massive dong so it’s absolutely nothing like me.
I spend every waking second as myself, why would I want to play as myself in a game that allows me to be someone else?
I got my V to match me pretty well, and I must admit it’s pretty cool seeing my face as a chromed put merc.
I mean, I generally prefer to look at female asses. But I often think the female voice actor is better, although Male V is about equal.
this! don’t get me wrong, I like a nice man butt as much as the next pansexual guy, but if I’m gonna look at someone’s backside for a 40 hour campaign, I’d rather it be a woman’s.
As the next pansexual guy… you know nothing of my work.
I also like the female style choices. With male V I pretty much stayed in Johnny’s jacket most of the time. With female V my outfit and hair color changed constantly.
Cyberpunk 2077 is first person though.
Yeah, true. I do use bikes a ton though.
I think for a lot of people part of the fantasy is getting to be someone else.
