The reason males choose female characters

Its because its a role playing game your guardian does not have to to be a spitting image of you maybe people like the smaller build because the want a ninja character Others because the just want too why do males choose a male character do you like looking at a man constantly? I don't that's why I choose a female they are more appealing to me and my play style. And I don't think people should be called names based upon there play style. Rant over

  • People should play whatever they feel most comfortable on. It shouldn't make a difference to any true gamer, unless it affects the story you will experience. Eg 'Dragon Age'. I am a man and normally make a male character, for online play. My reasons... I prefer to be honest and upfront with other gamers. For their benefit and mine. I don't need heaps of males with smokescreen agendas, hovering around and throwing me invites all the time, because they are hoping to meet women who like gaming. I wouldn't want them to waste their time doing so. It's lame. I'd much rather laugh at my attempt to recreate myself, using the in-game tools. Or just make something that should give others a few good laughs. Games are supposed to be fun. (To those it concerns) - Physical attraction to an avatar?!... Irrelevant in a game. None of its real. And it's kinda pitiful to think that that's even important to some players, when the real thing is out there. And surely, it's unimportant with a game like Destiny anyway?! It's a FPS. All the classes are well covered up with armor. It's rated T. So much fast paced action too... What exactly would any of you hope to see? Guardians in thongs?...An orgy at the tower?... Lmao. Turn off your console and go get some. Thats an order, Guardians!

    • If I have to look at an ass every time I go to the tower. Might as well be a nice ass.

          As a straight male, who is also combat arms in the Army, and a bodybuilder... I typically create female characters for mmo type games, or any game where I am playing anything other than 1st person 24/7. Why? Because I enjoy the female figure far more than the male figure, and since I rarely ever self identify with my character, I have no issues playing a female one. If it's a game where I want to feel like the character should embody me, then I will absolutely play as a male. But starring at a males backside for hundreds of hours does not sound pleasing to my eyes... But starring at a female figure for hundreds of hours, while making it look more and more badass... WIN! just my humble opinion, as someone who gets asked this question all the time.

        • WTF? We are still talking about this? Stop exhuming this horse and clubbing it, it's dead. Look, the damn skin is rotting off. Leave it in the ground, every argument that could possibly be made has been discussed, reviewed, debated, brought before local government, protested, indicted, brought before court, talked about over the dinner table, around the campfire, hypothesized, and philosophized. Just let the this die.

            • Some people like to create characters, some people like to create digital representations of themselves. I choose the gender of my character depending on what fits the character I'm building. I never make myself in games. If you're going to play a game that transports you to a fantastical world, why would you wanna be yourself? Gender is simply another means of distancing yourself from your character, if that's how you like to create characters.

              • Reading through a lot of these messages, in the case of Destiny, how much time are you planning on spending in the tower that you would be looking at your back for "100+ hours"? The rest of the game is in first person.... Those of you mentioning other reasons are of course not inclusive of this question

                  In other words, youre a virgin! Lol, im joking. Why do you even care what others think? Be your own man or woman, dont let others tell you what to do (unless your being a dick, that is!)

                • I don't think nothing of it, but for me it doesn't work. Don't know what it is but it just doesn't feel as right as playing as a male. But, if I could only pick females, I'd go with that because its not that important.

                  For me, it "feels"like the hit box for the female character is smaller. I find it much easier to hit a male character since they are so beefy. Plus, there are those guys who don't hit girls so we can take full advantage if them in the Crusible.

                    • I know of some who pick female chars because they feel they have been "worked" more on, like they took more time to make them look good, but for me it just feels better playing as a male since I am a male :P But each to hey're prefernces. Why jugde just because someone rather wants to play as a female char ;) I don't see ppl complaining that girls are playing as mal chars :P

                    • Your guardian also does not have to [i]not[/i] be a spitting image of you. Role playing game. Play whatever role you want, even of it is putting a version of you into the game universe. I like being myself, personally, but I'm not gonna knock others for choosing a different persona.

                      • The true reason why males pick female avatars is for the ass, we know we know but though... some males pick female avatars to get free stuff from people, as seen in many mmo games, but not in Destiny guess why NO trading system MUHAHAHAHA Enjoy working for the money xD
