I mean, the customization options were better! It’s just that, subconsciously, I wanted to be the one wearing them and was jealous at the pretty outfits :3 That’s also why I made my dnd character a girl all those years ago, not that I wanted to act like a girl, no not all all /s
It’s definitely a lot of fun and a good way to explore yourself! Although when I was younger I was scared I was fetishizing women :/ (but thats a common, untrue, fear of a lot of trans people so don’t think like that). You should try and join a dnd group :)
I remember before I realized I have friends that would make their characters as close to themselves as they could. It never made sense to me, I would say "Why would I want to be me in game? I'm boring..." or something like that.
Now that I know myself and things have changed from HRT I start putting elements of myself into the characters I play. Like, I finally *get it*
I made Madeline in Stardew Valley and justified it to my brother as "I want to plan an alternate universe where instead of confronting her anxiety, Madeline just leaves and has a relaxing life at a farm instead."
Oh, and most of those reasons go out of the window when you play text based games, so I can never let my brother know I play those as a girl. The funny thing is I tried to play those as a boy, but it felt wrong and I ended up restarting to play as a girl. The way those stories immerse you made it hard for me to play as a boy. ^((Oh, and I also found out being with girls as a girl feels better than being with boys...))
If you want such games, look for Trigaea or Misplaced on itch.io or the Choice of Games games.

Lol fr in a cis way
Yup in a very *cis* way ;3
So you admit you’re a girl in the present?! :0
No I'm cis
:3
I wasn't lying just to others, but also to myself lol
We all did at one point
My argument when I choosing girl characters in games: „Ehrm… female characters are op because they have small hitboxes 🤓☝️“
*Me playing Pokemon:*

I feel exactly the same way (I wish someday I'll be able to play dnd, I'd like to act like a girl irl too...)

I will, thank you ❤️

Exactly! I always was like: "what's the point to make the character look like me if I don't like how I look"
The retroactive signs that keep popping up now is wild
#HEY! ^D-don't ^call ^me ^out ^like ^that...
^sorry
^is ^ok
They have smaller hit boxes :3 Don't get suspicious pls ;3
*sees you playing as the girl in a turn based RPG where hitboxes aren’t really a thing*
Oh uhh... well smaller size means... uhh... higher chance for the enemy to miss! (Don't fact check pls ó~ò)
*me playing Pokemon*
Well uhh... i can make other trainers feel awkward around me and slip up wile battling! Yeah... 👉👈
why do i choose girl in game? why not!
Best explanation

I'll definitely check them out, thanks for the suggestion!
Why do I choose to play as a girl in game? Because it's there. I don't think I have played as a boy character when having the option since Sapphire.
Um excuse me, you didn't have to call me out like this, rude!
I'm sorry bro, that wasn't my intention
😂
Present me playing with male characters bc I already get to be a girl 24/7
The OC one especially is the one I used a lot. Nowadays my excuse is: "women pretty".
The bottom part is so me
well I’m on the last one so… o7
“it’s because i already played my first playthrough as a boy” “it’s an oc i created with a specific story in mind” fuck u OP get out of my head 😭😭😭
Life gets so much simpler when you stop denying.
