Do you play more female characters or male ones, and why?

Depends on which makes more sense in context. In games like VtM:B it doesn't matter at all since the "real-life rules" don't apply in the society of darkest night, but in games where your character becomes a classic hero and everyone worships at your feet, it doesn't seem realistic to play as female. I try to suspend disbelief in order to make my perfect storyfag experience complete.

I'm playing Kingmaker now as my normal female assassin and it definitely feels like the story/setting would make more sense with a male PC. However in a game like Cyberpunk I don't think it matters. Really depends how real-life medieval the setting feels, I think.

If the game is first person/isometric/topdown, then depending on the mood

But if it's third person, then female definetly, I ain't gonna look at the man's bun for the next 40 hours
