Well Mel is female...and if you include everyone, the ratio is pro-female, 6-3, but Syrgei gets the bulk of the playtime if I'm not in a dungeon.

I think I'd add, for myself, my male OCs tend to... not be "cool", more so horribly broken wrecks of humans, so I end up not making them in RPGs where the main focus is to be badass and awesome. Although, most of the female characters I use in games besides Olivia started as Guild Wars 2 characters anyway, and I find the male aesthetic options in that game... not to my taste, so kind of a serpent eating itself there in terms of cause and effect.

But Evander?


If I ever make a character is supposed to be bad-ass, they usually don't stay that way.

Now that I think about it, I probably lean towards more male character if I feel like adding a titch extra mental/emotional distance between myself and a character in a game. I tend to get immersed in games to the point that it gets detrimental to my health. It feels more like a character and less like an alternate me if I gender swap, even if the females I make are not at all like myself.

Beastial races don't count.

Almost never gets played.

Evander deserves more attention. His GS animation is so glorious!

Granted though, dear half-brother Ezra doesn't see much screen time either.

Suze you should make a female Charrrrrr.

Suzerain of Sheol 12-04-2017 01:36 PM

I dislike Charr. :|

BUT THEY'RE FUZZY

can we acknowledge how cool it is that here on trisphee we can easily change genders without having to pay up?

Espy 12-04-2017 02:58 PM

Dear gods yes. I don't understand sites where you need to pay to change your avi gender.

Claire Bear 12-04-2017 03:42 PM

gold sinks prevent inflation, i think that's part of it. ;-;

Espy 12-04-2017 03:50 PM

Sure, but...that just doesn't sit well with me. Other ways to make gold sinks, and all.

Lmao since I'm used to playing old games, where the only gender you could play as was male I guess I stuck to it over the years.
Also, usually the styles for it looks better.
I also remember Dragon Quest with its gendered outfit shizzle which made me deliberately play as a guy because damn, the clothing for girls was weak.

I actually prefer going as the male gender in video games. Ngl, I'm kinda wondering why there's no nonbinary option in video games.

Probably because they don't want to make even more meshes and stuff.

How would you even portrait nonbinary tho. like... everyone interprets it differently. i feel like simply choosing pronouns makes more sense and then choosing from a feminine versus masculine character or something.
