Whenever you're presented with an option in a game to choose either a male or female character, whether you're creating the character from scratch, or if its a choice between two pre-existing characters, which do you usually choose?

I usually go with the male character, although sometimes, i choose the female (example is Legend of Mana--the male guy looked like teh queerness).

I usually pick the guy the first time I play through it.

Meh what every the game stars the selector off at like so

Male <---
Female

Since it is already at the male I choose the male, if it was at the female I choose the female

I choose female. The male is always stereotypical, and theres hardly ever female characters. And in Sword of Mana the guy looked teh queerness, so i picked the gurl.

In ALL mana games the guy looks like teh queerness....

I only picked the guy cuz i wanted to see the same story as was in FFA for the original GB.

If I'm creating a character, my first is always female, then I usually have a guy (unless they have to be all one gender). When choosing a character, it's about who looks coolest. And usually if there's 3 options it's a corny looking guy, a cool-looking guy and a decent looking girl... so I choose the cool guy ^_^ But like in Suiko3, I choose Chris cuz she's the coolest one.

Yeah, i agree. Chris wast he coolest in S3. But, i also liked Hugo. I ended up choosing him as the flame champion.

that's what I don't get about the PAL guys....

they're giving you S4 but not S3...

unless they plan on releasing S3 as well...

Chicken Little

No they dont, and S4 isnt that big of a deal compared with S3 since S4 takes place before the first suikoden. So theres no problem with linkage to other suikodens. But still i dont see the reason why they didnt port it and all they gave was 'localisation issues' like no one gave a crap.

i mostly alwasy go for a mail char'

Edit: how do i do **** like that?...male...but now if you read my next post i changed it because i've been playing better games that have girl charecters and im starting to not give a damn about who the charecter is aslong as the game is fun.

Lol, mail.

I usually go for the cooler-looking of the two, actually. And that's usually the male. However, if the girl's hot enoguh (and/or the male's too queer >_>), i'll pick the girl, lol.

Since I get bored quickly with a male character, I'd go with female.

i dont care, if its a game where you pick male or female i always play the game through with eatch charecter, if its a game where your a guy, i like it, and if its a girl i like it..its up to the story line, game play, and stuff like that..its not up to rather your charcter is guy/girl, white/black thats somthing that doesnt matter

woah, sabin and evil penguin are here? sweeet.... I never gave much thought to it, but I usually have a male character. I enjoy using female characters when both are available (dark cloud 2 (monica rocks, and so do swords (plus she looks good in the panther ensemble(..... I am such a perverted loser.... must destroy myself)))

but I choose guy, cuz if I choose a female, I don't know what to call her, I can't call her CENSORED besides, I worry that I may find a girl who likes video games, then I have given the girl character a name that corresponds coincidentaly to a girl in my class. (hasn't happened yet *deletes old "beach voliball" files*)

I almost always pick female, cause I want to feel/pretend like it's me in the game, you know? I'll always make the character do what I would do in the situation (assuming that the option to do that is there...) And if the character's a guy, it just ends up being kinda wierd...

I always seem to pick a female for some reason, maybe cause I write female leads. In Morrowwind I picked a female, did pretty good with until I lost my X-Box. :(

I normally go with the male, if I play through a second time I'll play a fem then.
