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.

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.

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.

I started my first playthrough as a male. But male V just seemed like a dull loud asshole. So I restarted as female V. For me this seems like the intended way. V is still loud and brutal but also seemed more sensitive to me.aybe it’s just the voice acting.

One of my biggest criticisms points is, that it’s not really possible to play a calm and collected character in Cyberpunk. That’s something I’m dearly missing. Cyberpunk 2077 is not really an rpg.
