I often play RPGs as a female character, as a means of stepping outside of myself and actually, you know, role-playing. But I seldom play online games, and do not try to convince anyone that I'm a woman irl.
Still, it's interesting how people assume that because I've chosen to spend my game time watching a female avatar run about, I must be a woman. I've been in some sticky situations, but none thus far involving anyone claiming to be lesbian.
"If I'm gonna stare at an ass for hours it may as well be a hot one" is a reason I've heard.
The last descendant seems to be leaning hard on that demographic as well. The outfits are... Basically shovelware mobile game coomer shit.
That used to be my personal reason, but nowadays, I end up picking female characters even in games like Terraria where there isn't exactly much sex appeal going around. Turns out I like the sounds too, and not just dialog. I prefer hearing a girl grunt instead of some big macho man when I'm jumping or getting shot or whatever.
Thanks for the recommendation!
Haha. If you wanna jork it then go for it. The gameplay doesn't look bad either but the grind is somehow worse than destiny 2, and optimal builds are more complex than borderlands.
Also unfortunately most of the coomer skins are premium macrotransactions.
Honestly I'm not really an arse enthusiast so there's not a great deal of that going on in my case. It does make me laugh though when gamerdudes moan about the "gayness" of having to play a female character.
how sticky are we talking about
Exactly as sticky as you're imagining, I'm afraid. I was sent photographs.
Yeah, when I play an RPG and I create a character, I'm creating a whole character, not just a self-insert one. That character has a name, a backstory, a way of thinking, skills, experiences. When that character decides to join the Stormcloacks, it's not because that's what I would do. It's what the character would do.
Some of those characters are women. Some are nonhuman. It's a character, it's not me.
