Guys who play as female characters, why?

[Guh]

Man I can't count on 200 hands how many guys I've seen and met who has a female character. Its the mods isn't it?

In Games where you can create your own Characters, I always make both male and female, for different reasons.

1. I like to create different characters. Lets me learn Male and Female Propotions. In addition, I can create my own version of Waifu or Husbandos, the more i practice. Kinda a huge motivation factor for me, since you can express yourself via such medium.

2. It keeps the Game fresh to me. For example in Dark Souls, whenever I make a Male is either a Rouge or Heavy Knight. As Female i like to go more into the Cleric/Magic Caster Route. In Wilds I will create a Female, because I am almost done with my Main Male Character. Instead of doing nothing, a female character with different approach, will allow me to pass time and also catch up, until new Title Updates arrives.

3. Different Outfit and Fashion Reasons. If the game allows me to have more than 1 Slot, yeah i am gonna use it :D.

For me playing always as either male or female is getting stale. I prefer always a balance and variety. :D

Male players who have a male arse in the center of the screen - looks gay to me If I have to stare at the character in the center of my screen for hundreds hours then it's better be a sexy one

This is actually an interesting question. I've played a lot of characters over the past ~30 years, and I can remember when I switched from only playing male to trying a female character.

It all happened back in vanilla wow when making my fourth or fifth character. On a whim I decided to create the most beautiful girl character I could in order to get carried in dungeons and hopefully get good trades or even gold donations due to looking like a girl in-game. So I made a female troll shaman with a white ponytail hairdo.

I never got carried or any gold donations, but I did get a couple of compliments on my character's look. I also found that I really enjoyed trying to make my shaman girl look good, this was never anything I cared about when playing my other characters.

Note also the shift in perspective; I went from being the character to controlling a character, and I think this is what people like the OP is not understanding. You don't have to identify with your character, you can be someone who controls many different characters in different shapes and forms.

Glam is true endgame but we all know the number of perfect male glams can be counted on one hand.

The year is 2025. Male players are STILL stuck with bad looking armor sets in most titles.

On top of that: I have bad experiences with male characters in Monster Hunter, moaning like in some X rated movie whenever anything happens at all.

I play as female hunter so i dont see men's buttocks when Arkveld wreck my ass

It could be interesting if in a game, playing different gender make you see the story with a different prospective but if there's no change i'll stick with male character

lol. I don't even have the mods. Capcom designed some attractive female characters even without. them. Personally I prefer to look at female character jiggle physics as opposed to Male. I like to see her Wiggle Wiggle.

they're girls, just give them some time.

* Fashion Hunter * Just like Fashion Souls. It's no different. For me? I am a man and like looking at women so If I'm going to spend 200+ hours on a game might as well look at something that's appealing to my goblin brain. Sometimes its as simple as Females have better Armor Design than male characters. Most infamous I can think of right now is the Kirin armor. Males look like gimps that are one cloth away from assless chaps.

meanwhile the female armors are complete garbage

As a kid i made male chars, when i beat mh unite and restarted over i would use female, also i can draw hot female chars and like it more than looking at male.

alot of guys that are pro in mehanics go for female chars, its not that deep but they pref female over male, its like you are good and you play for fun.
