Playing as a character of the opposite gender

[bluaki]

For some reason, it doesn't bother me at all in Mario, Sonic, the early Pokemon games, Zelda, etc. but it just seems weird playing as a boy in games that ask "are you a boy or a girl" (especially Harvest Moon >_>)...

i don't really care what gender i am/choose. like, in pokemon emerald i chose the female because she looked cooler.

Personally, I disliked the appearance of May in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald.
Seriously, what is up with that hair?

[Commander Fuckass]

I don't really care.

[Kalahari Inkantation]

Doesn't matter what gender the person is to me, as long as I like the game.

[Infel]

I don't honestly care. I don't ever even do it to masturbate to what would technically be myself, like a lot of people I know.

[Wrench]

No, I'm fine with it if the game is good.

I don't care, when I play a game I really thing the main character as someone else, I don't ever ever feel as if I am the main character, I just feel as if I am his/her puppet master

What about Metroid Prime 3?

You bring up a good point, first person games I feel like I'm the character so I don't really notice that I'm playing a video game if I get really into it until you see Samus' reflection.

I guess if I see the character on screen I feel like I'm their puppet master but if it's a first person game I don't notice at all really.

My parents make fun of my brother and I if we dont pick a character of our same gender.

When given the option, I always choose a girl. Ever since it was possible back in Crystal I think I've been using girls.

Only time I'd prefer a guy is if he's some complete with axes and armor made of  fresh bear carcasses.

You forgot 1 and 2. And even then, I don't notice. Never notice for the damn 2D games males neglect either. I'm controlling them, that's all that matters. If it's some mystery and you get to choose, you get to be them, big whoop.

OH GOD YOU PLAYED AS EGGMAN?!

I always choose girl whenever given the choice except in Harvest Moon games where I make one file for each gender. I wish there were mods/hacks for homosexual marriage edumacate;
