Just about all female characters here, Can't seem to bring up the will to play a male xD

[darkshadow136]

My 1st toon was a female. After that though I stuck to my gender.

My answer will be the usaly answer I give to these questions. I cant stand staring at a mans butt for 4h a day. And females are damn hotter then males.

I have never ever played any RPG game with a female char and I've been gaming pretty hard since the release baldurs gate way back in the day. Dont know why really, I really dont see the point.

I'm Female and I Usually Play as a male charecter, mainly because I found the way the woman run irritating, but after playing 5 run throughs as a Male Noble, I switched to female found out it wasn't as irritating as i thought (Turns out I run like that).

But Jesus the only bad thing about playing as a female noble is:-

1) When shambling skeletons do that little freaky dance a female ends up weakened as BEEP

2) For some reason It was easy to knock me down, (What happened to my resistance?)

3) Not being able to do mori's dark deed myself, I have never actually gotten far enough to convice Alistar to sleep with her. Is it easy to persuade him?

I have never had an problems but I always harden him.  I think you can with unchanged Alistair too it just may be harder?

I play both male and female characters. If I play a rogue in any game, I generally will make it female.

My first actual playthrough was with my female Dalish elf rogue.

The DAO PCs may be silent, but thank goodness they have battle voices. Once I heard those voices, I use my mind to fill in the gap of silence during dialogue options.
There was no real male voice I liked 100%; I couldn't find a male voice which sounded heroic and deep.
But the female 'snarky' voice fit my dwarven rogue really well; helped me round out her character in my head.

The last voice option for a female elf, "Violent" or whatever (haven't played in a few months), is great. It fits a sinister rogue very well.

yea but the human violent one made me want to strangle my Cousland girl.  If she said she was gonna fetch a ladder ONE more time I would have tossed my computer out the window.  She got deleted and never made it out of Ostagar.

That voice and phrase got so annoying so quickly. I think I blew that character away as well.

I've played both genders for each origin plot in DA:O

Just to see how the world reacts around them.

Thread title. I have a human female rogue.

WHAT! Your a bloke and you actually play using a female character?  That's just pervy. :happy:

[Sotaklas]

i play with both but i tend to play more with female characters.

[CybAnt1]

I couldn't stand Anora and I wanted to be ruler of Ferelden, so I decided to play a female noble and marry Alistair so I could become queen, errr princess-consort, on my 2nd playthrough.



Also, just because I could, I played the char as bisexual, just to see what her options were. I romanced Leli. Had some one night stands with a few others. Too bad I did all this before the Lesbian Mod was finished.

[Aybeden]

I'm exploring lots of different scenarios with different characters, so inevitably some are female even though in RL I'm a happily married male with no 'alternative' inclinations. I never see any problem with playing females or males in games, it's not rl. It's all about roleplay and getting the max out of a game.



One of the great strengths of Origins imo is the way you can explore the various characters and the scenarios in different ways and the replay options that gives the game.

[Fycan]

I couldn't get pass The Origins with a female char

[Haexpane]

I always play as grrrrllls in RPGs. I like looking at female art, look at the most famous works of art in history, most of them are of the female form.



The facts are plain, females are better art subjects than males, they are purrrrty

[3ssay]

Guilty.

[Dj LynZee]

I'm a girl and I used to always play as a guy character because I liked to make 'sexy guys' and drool over them as I played...

But nowadays I seem to play strictly female characters. Generally not human either. All of my Dragon Age characters thus far have been female elves... and I can't bring myself to romance anyone other than Leliana no matter how many games I start! >.<

[Spinnazie]

My first DA:O run I was a male. Since then however, I've only played females.



I just can't bring myself to play a male, and I'm terrible at making decent looking ones.

[Evliya]

I'm a woman and prefer playing as male in this type of game, partly because I somehow tend to make female characters to "good" but also because I prefer looking at a male character. With the Zevran option around in this game I can avoid the female romances too.

[rob123971]

I do..

[cachx]

For some reason I wanted to match the promotional images of DAO, so my noble is a man, my city elf a girl, etc.



While playing a female char I always take the lesbian option, the other just feels weird

[Zevais]

I make a point to sex every possible character in the game. Playing as a female was a requirement for Alistar unfortunately.

[Little Paw]

Played male human noble warrior...it was okay.

Played a female human mage and found it much more fun.

Playing as a female character makes me feel out of palce (I take my RP seriously), so I don't play as a female.
Got a friend who plays with female characters all the time. His excuse is that if he has to stare at a PlayerCharacter for hours he prefers to stare at the backside of a woman. Good for him I guess. I don't stare at my PC, I usally checking the surroundings.

For me, it is acutally EASIER to roleplay using female pcs (i'm a guy). If I play as a male character, I tend to put WAAYYY to much of my own personality into him. To me, that defeats the purpose of selecting a character, giving them goals, and then allowing them to let their personality shine through as the game progresses (not just in DAO, but all rpgs).

Eventually after a couple of playthroughs, then I tend to make a character like myself....Sadly, those pcs wind up being the cannon min/max, powergaming characters that make me move on to something esle

Eeeeerrrmm....so Yup, I play female characters.

Heh. Add me to that mix - on both quoted counts

Being a woman myself, I find that I by far prefer playing male characters (table top rpg included too sometimes).
Same problem, if I play fem characters, I find I infuse too much of my own personality into them, instead of treating them as separate individuals distinct from my own personality traits. I find I can get far more into character & role play said character better, when they're male. That, and I've always enjoyed male protagonists more so than female ones in books, stories etc.
What can I say, I just love guys & all their amusing quirks

Which also leads to the other point Khayness made: If I'm gonna continuously be staring at a character on my screen for hours at a time, I'd far rather stare at a pretty boy I made, than some chick 

[ModerateOsprey]

Am a bloke - always play both. My female characters always end up being my favourites though. I always kinda wish some game mechanic would allow them to know of each other!

Thread title. I have a human female rogue.

Yeah I play female elf characters. There are already plenty of male protagonists in media,  so why not take advantage of the freedom of choice? The fact that Dragon Age actually let's you roleplay a lesbian is something almost unprecedented in these kinds of games, and there is that sweet yuri going on with Leliana.

Another good point is that female Wardens are certifiably badass, especially in origins like the City Elf, which is always good to have.
