Who said you can't immerse yourself when playing with the opposite gender?

    For me it’s not even about gender identity or role playing. If I’m going to spend 200 hours in a 3rd person RPG looking at a character’s ass, that ass had better be female.

        Skyrim can be played as either, though I personally do prefer 1st person in the case of Skyrim. I specifically said ‘3rd person RPG’ because the point I was making wasn’t limited to just Skyrim, and anything played 3rd person is obviously where it’s important to my experience of, ah… the game. Yes, totally of the game.

    Exactly! The fact I’m taking oestrogen and wearing pretty clothes is totally unrelated. Still cis BTW.

      I notice your pronouns are she/her – are you a cis woman then?

        I’m trans - the “still cis btw” was a little jokey joke

      Female V has such an amazing voice oh my god. Not like every other voice actor in the game isn’t an absolute genius, but man does she hits the mark all the time

          It’s the best Keanu acting possible! I love the man to bits, he’s an absolute treasure and should be cherished, but he can’t voice act for shit.

    Listen to “lady of the dark” from Sabaton, you’ll automatically create a woman character named Milunka whatever gender you are.

    You’ll be fully immersed and you’ll feel Serbian even if you’re from another country !

      “Everyone that has ever even thought about roleplaying as a different gender is secretly closeted trans” is one of my least favorite takes of all time.

      Gender is bullshit! Try shit! It’s a perfectly healthy and normal thing everyone should be comfortable with, don’t make it into a thing.

        Yeah, this sort of shit has gotten under my skin since identity stuff started exploding into public discourse.

        If gender is a construct, why the fuck are we still using traditionally masculine and feminine actions/interests to prescribe identity? What gives anyone the right to prescribe someone else’s identity?

        isn’t that the entire point though? if you consistently like doing this, you might not be what you think you are, and thats ok too.

          No, I dress very feminine and sometimes play girls in games as well, but I’m not a girl, I’m a transmasc. I know for sure I’m trans also, there isn’t a shred of doubt in my mind. I utterly hate so many things about being AFAB, especially my periods (those cause crippling dysphoria for me 😔 ).

          It’s entirely possible, but that’s something for every individual to find out for themselves. You can be a confidently cis dude and find it enjoyable to have a female avatar, correlation == causation.

            correlation vs causation is irrelevant. The important thing is that there are no absolutes.
