Men who play as female characters.

[Dizzy]

I play as females most of the time myself, because they are beautiful. ;-;

Also, as far as males go, I think Old Snake in MGS4 has a FINE ass.

... I'm not joking. If I had the ass-muscles he had, I would flex them in the mirror all night long.

[Aeolus]

I am a man who plays as male characters so I can watch their ass the entire time. There aren't many worth watching, but a few.

To be fair, it's pretty hard to see dat ass through dat armor.


Currently playing through DQIX with my all dude party clad in nothing but Muscle Belts and Boomer Briefs because all bitches and ho's are sluts unless they are covered from head to toe because I am totally secure in my sexual orientation.

Also they can only use fists except in the case of those hand drills because nothing's more manlier than MAXIMUM PENETRATION!!! (save for chariot riding penis monsters) and I'm as straight as the Colorado horizon.

Frankly, I don't see what the big deal is. Most of those crazy guys probably just want to be on the other side of the fence because the gr(eat )ass just seems better to them (also, they can't participate in lesbian lovefests no matter what they do).

Besides I don't really care who I play as because nobody has figured out how to write in a video game yet.

Generally when I make a character in RPGs, I create them from a "writer's perspective", if that makes any sense. I don't create an image of myself like most people probably do, I think of a character in my mind and create/characterize them in the game. Thus, I play both male and female characters about equally...just depends on my mood.

I find myself able to project myself into the action regardless of my character's gender because when I'm being immersed, it's into the action and not whether my PC has boobs or not.

It's funny how people mention roleplayers are somehow the people to avoid even though roleplaying servers on MMOs generally have more friendly people because they arn't as focused on just grinding the shit out of everything and getting all the best stuff, and more just on having fun.

Funny thing about asses in games:

In dragon age I got all the party members but only used a few. I took off all the armor from people I didn't use not knowing they'd all be in the final battle.

That made for some hilarious end game cut scene haps.

most dudes i know personally that play female characters is for psychological reasons. like they come from a family with a dominant female presense. or as is the case with my brothers multiple dominant females. it may even effect me since i cant bring myself to play a male character in games where i am given a choice.

Typical Female Night Elf in WoW

Yeah, there are lots of creeps who play female characters-- but not everyone playing a female character is a creep.

I played a female night elf because I liked the female archer archetype, pretty common fantasy shit-- and the men were all just fucking butt ugly... but when the bloodelves showed up I jumped on the Bishounen ship pretty damn fast.

Personally, the excuse that ''I play females because im attracted to them" makes almost no sense because all these females are designed by dudes? There's almost nothing feminine or attractive about any of them. It's all so blatantly ''male'' oriented that I coulodn't possibly try and get off to it.The last female character that wasn't a total joke to me was Morrigan from Dragon Age. From a JRPG? Never.

I did once in Ragnarok to get money from guys.

WoW is the worst when it comes to guys playing female characters. The thing that is fucking creepy is that most of the people playing female characters claim they are female, when they are obviously men or boys. I have no idea what would compel someone to do this, but it is one of the reasons I'm trying to stay away from MMO's in general. People are fucking creepy.

Oh shut the fuck up and stop generalizing.  Do you talk to every single female character in the game and ask them their real gender?

I'm pretty sure you play as female characters because male models look awful right?
You don't have to talk to every female character to know that a man is playing it, especially in WoW. You seem to be taking this very seriously, I guess this thread hit a nerve.

You can look up all my WoW characters.  Out of 5 of them, only one of them are a female.  In fact, I've already stated this on the first page that I picked a female to just play something different.

Also, that's not what you originally wrote.  It doesn't matter if most of the people playing female characters are male.  You said most of the people who play female characters claim they are female and I simply called you out for being full of shit.  Your snarky reply back just shows it even more.

In my WoW days my main was female. I really didn't think twice about it and I absolutely picked a female avatar cause I like looking at females.

I had never played an MMO before. I probably wouldn't do it again as a main just because it was a pain in the ass, but I really don't get what is so difficult to believe about the notion of using the criteria "what do I want to look at" when picking what you are going to look at for hours on end.

Whatever, I really don't get what the big deal is anyway.

[Starmongoose]

During the brief time I played FFXI when I was about 13, I played an Elvaan (sp?) female. No real motive behind it, I didn't even think it was an issue that my avatar was female.

There is no big deal.  No one in the games care.  I don't know anyone except Danku and Thoren that care, but I'm guessing that they're just trolling for attention.
