    Default Why do guys play female characters in games?

    Thread remade in alight of a reason discussion.

    1.I dont hate gay people.

    2.I havent been one of the people tricked by them

    3.This is a simpile Q&A

    I have had several encounters with these people.
    many of them use the excuse"girls stuff is cheaper!!" or "Its easy as a girl!!" also have heard "Cuz I rather look @ a girl then guy" along with "Thiz one is kawaiinekodesuotherazntalk"

    This is why people have little respect for people online/gamers and calls everyone online a predator these days. Cause little boys want to dress up and be girls. To me its a bit gay.(Its a lol don't rage)

    well plainly id like to come out and say this.
    now unless you have some deep dark mystic reason for making a girl, their is know reason for it. If its class resistcted for your favorite class that is a legit reason imo
    If you can give me a good reason and I acknowledge it, I will take back the gay comment.




    When I first made this thread I got like -76498694794 Rep cause of a gay joke I made

    My friend made a girl character and had a BF in game (It actually turned out he was a girl playing a guy character!). I quickly broke off contact with him. But im 90% sure he's gay now, he's one of them wiggers.

    sometimes the models are better for female chars, sometimes the armor looks better on a certain sex, also sometimes female chars have better animations then the male version, I use female undead rogue from wow as an example, female undead rogue does a flip on certain moves, looks cool so that's it really.

    I had answered in the other thread so I quote myself :

    This is more like :
    -there are players that like that their toon represents themselves in the game, so they play male.
    -there are players that don't want to stare at a male toon so they play a cute girl toon. I mean, in real life would a boy stare to another boy or to a girl ? Even if it's a virtual item, if they are given a choice, they will choose the item that looks better to them, red or blue, an axe or a bow, a boy or a girl.

    Another example, never heard your mom while watching a movie and says "wow brad pitt/will smith is handsome!", it doesn't make her a ***** that cheats her husband. Well, that's kinda the same~

    On side note, male players that pretend being a girl for scamming don't really happen that much. Well, I hear it a lot but actually never seen it while I play mmorpgs. And even if it really happens, it's the guy's own fault for being a **** and giving stuff to random people lol

    Sometimes males look like ******ed beefcakes.

    Females are more elegant and agile. /shrugs.

    I like to dress up girls and stuff. I don't see myself as being the character in the game so it's not a problem. I like to give my characters back stories and they are usually based off of characters I created myself. There is a common theme for the characters I use male or female that transfer to other games. The Mara I use in Mass effect is the same Mara I used in Knights of the Old Republic for example. Most of the time I don't even use my true alter ego in games. There is no game out there that can properly recreate his awesomeness. And most games aren't cyberpunk anyway.

    Most famous grand couturiers (for female cloths) are males, it doesn't make them gay or pedos. It's kinda the same for games, males just like to look and dress up women that fit the best to their eyes.

    Lets dive into the alter ego and mentality of an individual when it comes to constructing a digital avatar in the either-net world shall we?

    Now to start let us ask ourselfs..."Why do I or why do I not create a avatar of my opposite sex" lets explore the intelectual side of this slightly controversial topic with so many thought provoking answers ~

    There have been a few times when I called a girl character ''dude'' and she got all angry at me. I was just assuming she was a he, as most girl characters are guys.

    I never understood why guys play girls. I have a friend who I always play MMOs with. To make a long story short, he made a girl character once as a joke (don't remember exactly why it was a while ago) but he was only gonna use it for a little while and delete it. Instead, he ends up leveling the character up to high lvls, and now every time we play an MMO he uses a girl. I ask him why, and he always says '' I dunno..''

    People are just closed minded, who cares why people play the other gender, if you are dumb enough to give someone items just because their pixelated character has boobs, you are an idiot. If you are dumb enough to have a cyber 'girl friend', again idiot. I personally play both, I am gay though, and I do not tell people I am a girl, nor allude to the fact that I am.

    I'm gay and I don't use girl characters, unless it's a gender locked game in which the magic/ranged class is female by default.

    Actually. I find it more homosexual when straight dudes go for the super muscular handsome dude with a huge sword. You know, muscles, huge swords.

    I play both, depending on everything. I mean, in Ultima Online, I play a female, out of habit because when UO came out, females could have more Armor Rating (female plate / male plate combo), in certain games like La Tale that I played, the guys looked just like girls except they looked a bit uglier, I picked girls. DFO, I am a mage, clearly girl. World of Warcraft I played a male gnome. I guess it really just depends on which looks better/gets better benefits.
