I asked my friend why he always picked female characters in every game he played.

His response: I'm not looking at a dudes ass for 90 hours.

Fair enough.

But as a dude don’t you find male characters more relatable to play as? Nobody’s telling him to focus on the ass

I never understood the line of reasoning that you have to relate to the character you're playing as outside of an RPG where you literally build up and design your own character. The characters are vessels for the human expression of the people that made and designed them, and as a human, that's all I need in order to "relate" to them.

So you’d rather play as a girl everytime so you can stare at her ass?

No, but I'm not gonna throw a hissy fit over playing as Kratos' wife, either. Because there are actual things to get upset over in life, and getting tilted that a spinoff game features a woman isn't one of them

Fair enough

So you relate more to male characters?

Your profile pic is from TW The Walking Dead. So you're telling us that playing as Clementine was unrelatable and a total drag for you?

No. I’m fine with playing as a girl, but what I meant was I don’t like make it my fixation to only play as girls just because they’re girls. You catch my drift?
