    I typically play female characters in games too. Always have. They’re something outside my world experience, I can experience the story through a lense I may not have seen otherwise.

    It’s nice to see yourself represented but like… Shiiiiiiit dude. I’m reading a book or playing a game to be immersed in the story. Why people put so much stock into who or what a character is; it’s beyond me.

    I just want some good stories with good characters. I can’t fucking wait to kick ass as Cirilla in the Witcher. I loved being Girlboss V in Cyberpunk, Senua was stellar.

    Open world RPG? Bet your ass I wanna be goth mommy in plate armour ripping out a dragon’s throat.

    Also sometimes games had smaller hitboxes for women and little me fucked with that more than anything.
