    As someone who played korean MMOs for most of his youth, women were the only choice as every male skin looked like he’s wearing painted cardboard lmao.

      Female V has such an amazing voice oh my god. Not like every other voice actor in the game isn’t an absolute genius, but man does she hits the mark all the time

    Since the dawn of gaming I always picked the more aesthetic choice, which mostly is the female choice. Never cared about the “u play woman? U gay!” Idiots…

      I never understood how me preferring to look at a female figure while playing a game was ever something to question…

    For me it’s not even about gender identity or role playing. If I’m going to spend 200 hours in a 3rd person RPG looking at a character’s ass, that ass had better be female.

    Unrealistic. Lacks modded bazoongas bigger than character’s head.

    Listen to “lady of the dark” from Sabaton, you’ll automatically create a woman character named Milunka whatever gender you are.

    You’ll be fully immersed and you’ll feel Serbian even if you’re from another country !

      “Everyone that has ever even thought about roleplaying as a different gender is secretly closeted trans” is one of my least favorite takes of all time.

      Gender is bullshit! Try shit! It’s a perfectly healthy and normal thing everyone should be comfortable with, don’t make it into a thing.

        isn’t that the entire point though? if you consistently like doing this, you might not be what you think you are, and thats ok.

        Yeah, this sort of shit has gotten under my skin since identity stuff started exploding into public discourse.

        If gender is a construct, why the fuck are we still using traditionally masculine and feminine actions/interests to prescribe identity? What gives anyone the right to prescribe someone else’s identity?
