Your favorite gender in games?

[All4Nobody]

usually female because they're better than males 

[BSAA_Advisor]

Use to be males, now I prefer to play as females.Just a smoother and less boring playthrough and males characters have bored me after years of using them lol

Also Jill Valentine & her more inventory slots, had a lot of say there

Always female !

[terwas-lurake]

Favourite: Females 90% Males 10%

[LianshiSaonji]

I prefer male, as I am male.

If it's an RPG where you can have a companion (i.e Dragon's Dogma) I'll be male and my companion will be female, it's how I used to play mmo's so it sorta stuck.

Or with Destiny, I do 1 of each.
Male Awoken Warlock.
Female Human Titan.
Then probably Male Exo Hunter eventually.

[SkyMirror0808]

I play and don't mind both.  

 

Generally I would prefer female characters.

 

Males can be badass.

 

Females can be badass AND sexy. 

[Castillo_82]

Always female and with a screaming hair colour. In fighter games I always go for the pink/red haired ladies for some reason, like C. Viper in SF, Baiken in GG and Skarlet in MK.

[raged_t-rex]

I like a bit of both, if you play a game like tomb raider then your obviously forced to play as a female

I usually choose female.

[Kittet3]

In games where the dialog/gameplay is affected by my gender choice, I usually go male. In fighting games (aka Tekken, Soul Calibur),, I go female because I usually like their outfits or hair. In Onlne games (Defiance), I go female because I don't want to decieve the other players, and there usually isn't that much of difference between the characters. In games like Borderlands, where each character has a special ability, I don't choose based on gender but rather on which ability I work best with.

[dino_22479]

more often male, depends on the game i guess

[Dreakon13]

I find it kind of weird if a game offers you a choice of gender and your first reaction is to pick the opposite one.

 

That being said, I can appreciate if there are gameplay or story related reasons for it... that's an entirely different situation.  If there isn't though, and that's the first direction you go in.  Eh...

[indigoware]

Always female, if I have the option. It just feels weird for me to play the opposite gender, if I can play my own and be comfortable.

[BSKkayfabe]

I Like seeing strong women characters in games, no misogyny here lol

[Piramidoglowy]

Most console games I play are RPGs. In most cases the gender of characters is set. But if I have a choice, I prefer females. Let's face it - I'm a guy, and I'm gonna spend a lot of time with this character (I like spending time on grinding levels). And if I have to keep looking at the same character.... Yeah, I know, someone will say I'm sexist and so on. But to my defence I'll say that in some cases (Skyrim, Fallout 3, Dragon Age 1&2) I choose male. Same thing goes for all of my 'paper' RPG characters (my favourite Pathfinder character is a male, dwarven lich wizard). So, to sum it up - in most cases (about 3/4) I'm gonna go with female, but in some specific situations I might go with male

[Cuiling]

Female.

[SuffyZorugelion]

Female mostly.

[Sephaizen]

Depends on the game. In a fighting game I pick characters i'm good with, regardless of gender. RPGs is either or, depends on the class and perks, etc etc

[Era-Song-Bird]

I tend to pick female more often than male. It's mostly because I like roleplaying as some kickass woman in the games I play.

[Fierce_DeityX1]

Typically I play as a female (I'm a guy) especially when it is a game in which benefits are better for females. I will end up playing as a male if I really like the game.

[Yukiko Miyamoto]

Female mostly. Depends if the Male character is very attractive .

[Slava]

I don't really have a general preference. I also don't play a lot of games where you create or pick a character, I guess. 

 

I did play Mass Effect 2 as a dude back in the day, and would probably do the same now.

 

In Resident Evil 1 I liked to play as Jill a little bit more.

 

So yeah, depends on the game.

[HamiTosh]

I like to play as female characters, as most often they have far more custumization options.For online play I found thatI get treaten with more respect and friendliness because I played a female.

Probably somed desperate men or boys

[Arzoden]

I always play as a male since i myself am a male...

 

I don't think i have ever played as a female, i just feel more vulnerable if i do you know??

 

I have seen plenty of females playing as males though, strange how that works.

[Janire1911]

I used to play males but ever since I played Mass Effect as femshep I almost always pick female now if there's a choice.
