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?

[Juh]

I flipped a coin when I played my first Monster Hunter game to pick between male or female and it landed on female. From there I just kept making the same character in every MH game.

i find it incredibly weird (i'm not saying it IS weird, just that i find it weird) when guys make female characters. i'm from the camp where i like to imagine myself killing the monsters, so i make my character look like myself as much as possible. i also grew up with literal army men that i would pretend to shoot things. i didn't grow up playing dress up w/ a barbie.

again it all comes down to opinion. i'm sure there are people who think it's weird i like to pretend i'm the bad ass hunter killing the monsters, rather than just imagining some cute girl doing it instead.

I go back and forth depending on whether I want my character to represent me (male), or whether I want to see someone attractive while playing (female).

In multiplayer games like this one, I usually go with the first one, so everyone knows I'm a huge, muscular guy with a deep voice and a giant sword.

Otherwise, yeah, if I'm looking at or listening to a protagonist I can make myself, they're probably going to be a hot woman. I didn't do it in this game, but I think it's easy to understand.

I wouldn't be surprised if there's women out there that do the exact same thing but in reverse, but whenever we see a male character, we just automatically assume the player is male, too, and never ask any questions.

Easy, I don't play "as" a female character...I play "with" a female character.

whoever creates women is usually a pervert

I like to make my person in the game, that is, a black man, I find it more immersive, whoever creates women is usually a pervert

I don't often run in to guys playing female characters who are pervs. They are quite rare usually. The pervs are mostly the ones who are super strict on them being a "MAN".

There are those who prefer to spend hundreds or thousands of hours looking at the backside of a man and listening to the voice of a man. There are those who prefer to spend hundreds or thousands of hours looking at the backside of a woman and listening to the voice of a woman. That is the only clear distinction here.

To me, my character is the window in which i view the world, and i find playing as a male more relatable. Also, i prefer going on adventure with beautiful women, rather than as a beautiful woman.

Don't wanna watch dudes running around. Not trying to be prejudice. Cool if you're into it. I just ain't that way. I KNEW this was going to be a thread eventually LOL. There's always one.

Most of the time, if I'm playing a female character, it's 2nd/3rd etc character and I'm mixing it up. Though sometimes, a female body just fits the aesthetic better, or related cases like Assassin's Creed Odyssey where the voice acting for Cassandra was vastly superior to the voice acting for Alexios.
