It's not gay to stare at a male ass while playing games 3rd person perspective?

Alan Wake 2: you can play with both: Saga and Alan. Gamers: Nooooo, I want to play only as Alan Wake.

Here's what you do.. When you fire up a new game, you have a "Custom Character" option. Selecting that brings up a rendering of Ciri standing there all badass. Beside her is a single check-box, labeled "FAT COCK". Selecting "FAT COCK" promptly puts a massive, sagging bulge in the crotch of her pants that drops down about a foot and bounces heavily from the physics. From here the player can either disable the fat cock option and proceed, or keep the fat cock and then proceed.

Given Cyberpunk's character creation options, this wouldn't surprise me that much lol

I think it was Jack on Roster Teeth that said it best...

Everyone made their online character for GTAOnline as basically themselves, except Jack, he made a female character. They all start ripping on him and he hits them with "if I'm gonna be staring at an ass for the next 500 hours, i want it to be a girl's ass." I think Gavin even asked if it was too late to switch.

ETA: girls run faster in GTA, so it's the better choice by any metric.

I choose female characters in games all the time, and this is one of the reasons for sure.

Not online games where you create your avatar though...

I've seen it said that people create three types of characters in online character creation: first is just themselves. We've all done it. Second is a celebrity or character from an IP. Think of all the Shreks, Peter Griffins and Samuel Jackson's that were being shared when baldurs gate 3 came out. Third is an unholy monstrosity that's just every slider at the extremes.

This is what I generally do these days. I mentioned it in another comment, but I love hitting random over and over in a From Software game character creator to get the most hideous creations imaginable.

"I can only see women as objects, not as people, so I cant handle playing as one without risking trying to sexualize myself like I sexualize women. "

I think Im missing the issue here. Wasn't the same argument used for adding female characters to games and transgender characters later on?

Kinda thought that's the goal, for everyone to be represented if possible. That said, I'm looking forward to game being focused on Ciri

I think that makes sense for games on which you create your own character. Sometimes a game tells a story with a specific protagonist though and they aren't meant to be "you".

They for sure didnt complain when you only could play a man in the first 3 games.

I guess so. Not sure if the poster is famous for being one-sided like that. Could be hipocrisy, could be mockery of similar posts going the other way as well. But if not, if they honestly sticked to "provide all options where possible", I wouldn't mind them stepping up for themselves as well.

The fact that such comments still get any traction is sad. Like come on guys, what an ass, with nothing to add! How is this in my all feed?

“I am a very heterosexual manly man” These dudes are so transparent

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

It's crazy how insecure theses dudes are. Sad.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Yes... Extremely heterosexual of him to want to stare at a man while he plays, rather than a woman.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What a dumb bastard. I'm a dude and I've always preferred playing female characters. Never once "bRoKe mUh iMmErSiOn"
