Difference between Male or Female??

[Mushroom Tipped Jit]

I would like to know if there will be any differences between being Male or Female, Like if Females can tame Dinos better but are not as strong as the Male characters. Or just any difference at all... - JUST A QUESTION!!

Should only be cosmetic

Currently, the only differences are cosmetic and hitboxes.

Well no, it SHOULDNT only be cosmetic, as there ARE marked differences in the sexes, but im sure to please all the SJWs it will be cosmetic, and people will still whine.

Kids... talk to your parents about the birds and the dinosaurs. They'll explain the differences between males and females. :D

That said... I'm curious as to what the differences in hitboxes means.

making statistical differences between male and female characters is a bad idea, really bad. There is a reason why 99% of rpg's don't do this.

Don't quote SJW's for this one. I don't want to see male toons talking like girls because of the mic and female toons talking like dudes just because they want to play a certain character that has advantages due to sex. I'm no SJW, but this is just a terrible idea for an RPG like this.

If you wanted to go this route males would be markedly stronger, have better endurance, better food and water stat due to the differences in male/female stomache mass % compared to overall body size, they would be able to take more punishment. Bad bad idea to make sexes different statistically in an rpg like this.

so female hitboxes are smaller I'm assuming? That would mean picking a male character puts you at a disadvantage and in that case I'll be making a female char. Probably not a good idea to have different sized hitboxes.

Well, they are shaped differently so the hitboxes have to be different.

You have to have accurate hitboxes lol. Besides, u can get shot in the boobie with a female.

You heard it here, folks. The resident biologist has decreed all such womenfolk shall surely endure the mark of -4 strength score.

Let none cross him or be struck down in his scientific fury.

Bad for gameplay reasons, better for immersion and realism. But this is a fantasy game, so Its not a huge issue.

Well, I am medical, and I can tell you, they ARE markedly different. If you want to deny that, then you deny sexual dimorphism.

To paraphrase one of the devs, my friend...

"It's a good thing this is a pseudo-realistic game, then, isn't it? ;)"
