This is so true in all the mmorpgs I've ever played. I always make girl characters in games unless I'm naming them after myself. | ||

The female characters were just so much more cool looking in that game, and most decent players picked the female. They actually had frame differences, enough to make some moves... you know. | ||

i don't see why you'd happen to care more for a girl character considering that, but okay man, if you want to rationalize it that way for reference I play female characters when given the choice 99% of the time but in ME2 i chose male because shepard is male officially and the female shepard is just there as fanservice | ||

I also just realized that if i'm modeling a character after myself then I pick male, whereas if I don't I usually pick female. | ||

Never felt right to me, I always feel more immersed if I choose the character most similar to myself. | ||

Single player games, I go with one with better storyline & experience if there is marked playstyle difference; It's case of immersion vs storytelling. Other cases I just go with the player I am good at. | ||

I am not very comfortable with deceiving other people around me into believing I am female -_- Why would one do that anyway? how does playing a female equate to "deceiving other people into believing you're a female" lol legitimately pretending to be a girl is what would do it, not simply playing a char as the gender. if you see a female char in a game and instantly think "must be a chick" then geez man | ||

I just think he finds it enjoyable the op becuase he rather listen and look at a woman instead of a man. I do the same most of my music has females leads. | ||

Then again, even as I type new idiots are being spawned into this world, destined for the internet communities of the future. On topic: I prefer playing female characters, though I sometimes play male ones too. For competitive games, I throw gender out the window. | ||
