I’m not judging, I’m genuinely curious. The reason why I’m asking is because in this sort of games I like to make the character resemble me as much as possible in every aspect, so I’m just curious to know what is the motivation behind men that decide to play as a female character.
As probably a generic “dude” as one can be, I like playing female characters because it gives me a chance to be someone I’m not. I play games to remove myself from the real world for a bit, and playing a male character feels too much like self-insertion.
It’s weird, but being forced into playing from a “self” perspective I find to be less enjoyable. I like being told a story, and getting to participate in it, but I dont like when the story feels like it’s supposed to be about myself, rather than a character.
