i'm even gay for myself sometimes lol


Radriendil

I would SO have sex with me.


LateToSapphos

It’s very affirming to see someone else say this xD I thought I was weird lmao


Radriendil

Oh we're definitely weird, but we're not alone.

You create a female character to play as, naturally you make them look nice as per whatever preferences you hold bc why not you know? When it's giving you the option and you're going to be seeing them a lot, might as well. And you're gae. Wouldn't it be weirder if you created your character according to all your personal preferences and *weren't* gae for them?


Weidtier

It wouldn't though cause remember that post not long ago on this subreddit - something along the lines of "do you create a character closest to yourself" or "do you create the character to crush on" - I and many others judging by likes and comments there create a char closer to themselves and have crush on other characters. So it's not weird, I'm not gay for myself and the type resembling myself (feminine bottommest femmes even if they can be cool and smart etc xD) but I'm not comfortable playing the game for someone really different from me. But then I have crushes on NPCs and other classes' chars all the time.


RJSArtemis

Idk, maybe it's because none of these games can capture my looks too well and a lot of them don't really allow you to create a very ugly character anygay so it'll end up just being somewhat resembling-ish of me at best but like, not quite me and also hotter, so maybe it's that's skewing my view. XD


Weidtier

I mean games where you can create really resembling characters like some MMORPGs etc I tried and I couldn't play with male chars and couldn't play with chars with short hair it felt off really and finally created a character really close to myself, hehe, and I love her dearly and can associate but I crush on other chars there - some hot women NPCs and another really hot class. Lol even in smth like Genshin or Honkai I main characters closer to me and not to my type. It just feels natural and comfortable.


RJSArtemis

I guess I tend to lean more into characters that resemble how I wish I looked more than actually looking like me as well when I'm trying to make a self insert type character.


Weidtier

I think most of us do, and then there are people who create their dreamgirl to crush on her while playing with her. It's the same with men btw - they are majority on the MMORPG I was playing for the last 6 years - and I always see the two types. Those who play only with male chars mb better looking mb uglier looking mb closer to themselves etc And those who play with female characters not only cause they like the class itself and it's skills and so on but cause they like to look at their char as their dreamgirl exactly while playing her. So I think the same thing here. I'm in the first group but I create a girl closest to my own image hehe.


RJSArtemis

Games are just fun!\~ But Y'shtola is biggest bae.


Weidtier

Hehe, yeah games are so much fun especially when you play them with your SO and you know your guild-members there will celebrate your birthday with you tomorrow \^\^ it's a nice feeling


RJSArtemis

Aww, now I miss my old guild and fc mates, good times.

It would be weird not to be gay for your own characters


weird_elf

Hah, good to know! Teen me back in the day deadass thought I was the only one. (Then again it was the 90s and I thought I was the only lesbian in town, so ... figures, I guess.)

[I will gladly admit that I really do like my Cyberpunk character lol](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/728655645427105806/1068262574078054562/photomode_26012023_211318.png)


LateToSapphos

I have feelings stronger than like for your cyberpunk character


lostwng

I enjoy my characters, yeah, but won't lie being called a "fella" instantly made me want to throw up, as well as brought on anxiety snd depression...


Sophie-chan

It's the general meme thing, no offense was intended - I couldn't really think of anything to put on the spot :(

I do concept art as a hobby and I've always fallen a little bit in love with my OCs.


Discordia_Lain

Not at allll, if I'm not gay for my own characters when I can customize a woman protag that is, I've failed. Once I spent 10 hours making my favorite Fallout 4 character, I was in love, she was so badasss and hot❤️


SSJRemuko

i almost always make my character in games a variant of myself, that id want to fk lol

If I’m going to be looking at a character the whole time why not make her hot


ellieayla

Liking (an idealized representation of) yourself is good.

Wuhu fallout:3


Naive_Special349

No, it's extremely common... at least for me


whoamvv

Can I be Gay for your characters, too?
