I have and still do both male and female. The only exception is multiplayers games, specifically FF14 online cause I don't feel right playing as a female and having other people believe me to be female when I'm not, doesn't feel right.
It does make me feel less merged with the character but it's quite fun and I've even done some romancing as a female in games like DA Inquisition, it is the only way to see Sara's romance quests in that game. Fallout 4 somehow felt ad if the game was meant to be played as the mother, Idk why. Her VA was way better too and so was Casandras in Ass Creed Oddessy. Bloodbornes female grunts and moans are less annoying than the males. Often females are more slender and that effects the feel of gameplay to a degree, often in a good way. Smaller hit boxes and all. I.e the female choices in The Last descendant.
I'm secure in myself enough to play with digital barbie dolls but it doesn't seem like this is the norm with recent controversies over female MC's. I don't understand it. 😕 If you choose to stay away from females in character creators, please share, I'd like to know your reasoning for choosing only male.
