Krimian Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 People pay their sub (in most cases) and can play how 'they' want to play, what has it got to do with anyone else? I'm in the boat too, Some armor models look better on female toons were as on a male toon, it'd look ridiculous... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayobreezie Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Why? Sure the view of the back is nicer, but how can you relate? For me, smaller figure for pvp.. Mental thing.. The smaller I look, easier I can hide from behind pillars and such. And body type 2 got that Kim kardashian booty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNahash Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) Why? Sure the view of the back is nicer, but how can you relate? How can you relate to an Elf, a Dwarf or an Orc? Sometimes it's not about relating, it's about experiencing a story from a different perspective. Also, Lara is a woman and she is one of the most iconic characters ever created in the video games' universe. For me, smaller figure for pvp.. Mental thing.. The smaller I look, easier I can hide from behind pillars and such. And body type 2 got that Kim kardashian booty. ^^ This too Although I'm not a fan of the Kim Kardashian booty. I prefer petite blondes or red-heads Edited April 11, 2013 by TheNahash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandi Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Not this troll thread again... sigh... I don't know what's sadder, the OP or the people rushing to justify their choice of gender in-game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infernixx Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Well, all my girl characters are gay. So, we have something in common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psikofunkster Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 1) Cause they like to watch the beauty of a female all the time instead of an ugly man. or 2) Cause they are femenine (and i mean the players). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SystemProcess Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 All but 1 of my characters are male, partly to avoid grief. Sure works. :/ It really does. And it's fun to troll people when they don't realize you're a female behind the screen and you mention having a boyfriend. I swear more girls flirt with me on him when they think I'm a gay man. Not sure how I feel about this. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuixupu Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) I don't get why people play non-humans in MMORPGs.. It's so weird! I mean, you're human, so you should play a human! How do you relate? I'm female, 4 of my characters are male, 2 are female. Edited April 11, 2013 by chuixupu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holyexecutor Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I don't get it either. So many females in the game - and suddently 90% of them are not females Sad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmegaJinjo Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 One of the questions that will forever be asked in MMOs. There are the two obvious answers, some just like to be a pervert and control a woman and stare at her, some people feel transgendered and pick what they feel their true gender is. But there's a third which I think I personally fit into. When people play their MMO characters there's basically two types of people those that think of their character as extension of themselves and those that see their character as a different person they're basically molding their story, pretty much a "first person" and "Third person" view. I think a lot of "males playing females" fall into the third person play style, they don't see the character as themselves, and the first person people find it confusing because they think of their characters as themselves. In my case, I always play females because I think it's really awesome to have a story about some dainty cute girl who is an absolute ******, instead of the stereotypical male hero. I also think females tend to look way cooler with animations and in armor in most games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOnlyKyrenS Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Well think of it this way. If you're a dude, would you rather look at a dudes *** for 55 levels or a chicks *** for 55 levels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poypoyking Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Most of my toons are male (male here) but some of the male voices just grate on me. The female agent and female inquisitor voices are so much more enjoyable to listen to that once I found out I deleted my male character and rerolled as a female. The drawback is I feel weird romancing as a female character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
