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.
Yeah well, to be fair, I decided not to play Kingdom Come precisely because you only get to play a dude character. And I love medieval themed RPG's. It's just, ya know in this day and age for them to say.. "but realism" ..pff.. it's a game mate.
Having said that, I did play the Witcher series, because Geralt is one of my favorite fictional characters and have been reading the books long before the games came out. And to get to play as Cirilla, oh wow .. that's übercool.
Also, long before KC there was Warband and I played the hell out of warrior ladies, so yeah didn't bother with machistic BS "realism".
Anyways, too bad dude. I get ya yer poor sod. Just don't play. Case closed.
Companies have been opening up options in character creation across games to allow more diversity. More and more games allow you to select your name, gender, race, skin tone, physical attributes, personality, voice, and sexual orientation. These developers have discovered that people want to play characters they can relate to and this is mostly celebrated.
This person wanting to play as a male is a perfectly valid desire. It's the exact same reason I never played any of the previous Witcher games despite it otherwise being my kind of game; being forced to be Geralt breaks my immersion. I wonder how much more popular the Witcher series would be if it had even the most basic level of character customisation.
Meh. If that's not his jam, fair enough. I like playing women just to be different.
Lemmy: "FUCK THIS GUY!"
Two things: It would be insane $$$ to make two versions and no one has to buy the game.
I'm with him on this one. I don't know anything about the game in question but in general I want to play with a male character because I'm a male myself. Ideally you'd have the option to choose from both genders as is the case with the game I play.
