If you’re “immersion” can be broken by playing as someone who’s not a carbon copy of yourself, you may be lacking some brain matter.
This guy wants to look at a man’s ass for 40 hours straight.
Me too, thanks.
This is exactly why I can’t play any of the metroid games. Also can’t play Kirby because I’m not an androgenous pink blob.
TURNABOUT IS FAIR PLAY MOTHERFUCKER!
As a cis-femme gamer I am SO SICK of playing as grizzled, middle-aged cis-men in every goddamn game with a set story.
Games where you can pick the gender of the protagonist don’t count. Whether you play as Man-Shep or Fem-Shep, Mass Effect is exactly the same and the gender choice is exclusively cosmetic. There are very few games with female protagonists that actually commit to the protagonist being a woman and delving into what that entails.
Just in this first trailer, Ciri is trying to save a young woman from being used as a maiden sacrifice and that is a much more emotionally complex situation for her as a young woman herself. I will be pre-ordering Witcher 4 the second it is available because I want more studios to make games with women as the main playable characters so that I can have immersion in my games too.
Not to mention that in Witcher 3 there were already plenty of Ciri “flashback” missions.
I kinda wonder if they’ll be doing the same in reverse and she’ll be saving Geralt’s ass this time around as the main plot
Getting called a bitch as masc V in cyberpunk :(

I’m not interested in playing as a Witcher. I am a regular human. Breaks my immersion. I think there should be two options. One for witchers and one for regular humans.
I’m not interested in playing as an Astro Bot. I am a human. Breaks my immersion. I think there should be two options. One for robot and one for human.
I’m not interested in playing as a vampire. I am a human. Breaks my immersion. I think there should be two options. One for vampyre and one for human.
Seriously though, this pathetic misogynist is a joyless snowflake.
He was clearly not interested in playing at all, since he doesn’t even know you play as Ciri in Witcher 3 as well.
I am not interested in playing as a male. As a male, I already go through life as one. I don’t have the urge to experience that further. Breaks immersion.
If I play RPGs and have the choice of a character, I always pick male and customise him to look like me. Despite never seeing my character when I play in first person mode. It just seens natural to me.
But when I don’t get the choice (mainly narrative driven games like adventures), I simply roll with it. It’s a game after all, not a second life.
Why are we sitting here discussing a troll? That’s the most obvious bait I’ve ever seen.
doesn’t matter if this particular person is a troll. this is literally a political movement now. being a maidenless loser as a political ideology.
No it isn’t. Being a manless loser is though. 4b
while I disagree with 4b because I don’t think it’s going to be effective if South Korea is any indication… it most certainly isn’t manless, almost by definition, at least not in the way maidenless is used. maidenless means someone who can’t get a woman. 4b is for women who can get and/or have gotten men. otherwise it would be moot anyway.
I don’t mind playing a male but always prefer female. Started with Unreal 99 and smaller female hitboxes then continued in mass effect (if I can choose to watch a spandex gluteus Maximus for 30 Hours, I chose female)… and now it’s a habit of playing female and chaotic neutral for first playthroughs.
Based and gluteus pilled.
Men. ☕
It’s gay to play male characters bc you’re staring at a dude all day. True hetero males play female characters because it is most hetero to look at attractive women.
That…is actually why I often choose women, tho. I mean not to be “hetero”, I’ll just take a woman’s ass over a dude’s.
Indeed, the classic Egorapor defence. They’ll be an attractive woman in every cutscene too
Gay detected.
Wants to look at the butts of men in 3rd person view.
I prefer looking at the butts of women.
I remember when this totally broke my immersion back in the 1990s…
Didn’t they understand that I wanted to raid tombs as a MALE?!
those boobs are killing me 💀 like helium balloons yearning to fly away
And they took 9 days to render. Times were tough back then.
Oh, they weren’t like that in the game. They were more like majestic pyramids.
