Wheres the "casually beautiful yet hardened women" option? *Pouts*

Anyways, with the exception of maybe one or two curiosity saves, all mine will be female. Though none as a "supermodel". :b

Look i knew someone would, start busting my chops, what do you want a million options? i can remove the "hot" and "me" and it will simply be "female" "male" but that is bland, and im a m basing the question for the majority and the majority are male.

Hahaha at the poll options... I am definitely going to be a lady though. I rarely identify with male characters.

Male.

my first character will be male, my mage will likely be a lady.

Male. I don't identify with female PCs very often. I tend to play my PCs as if I were actually them.

Why am i not surprised.

Probably because that's how a crapload of players play these games. Glad I could clear that up for you.

I'm not sure what my first character will be like yet (I probably won't know for certain until I actually get to creating my character.) but unless the extremely unlikely event that I don't want to play the game more than once happens I feel like I can safely say I'll make both male and female characters, as I have for Morrowind and Oblivion, and really, most other games that let me choose my character's six and which I've played through more than once before.

Well thats where you went wrong. Polls are supposed to gather information about something as a whole, not tailerd to the majority.

A more accurate pole would be either a flat male or female, or a more indepth poll would have had the options for "Male playing a male", or "Female playing a female" and the mixed options.


Include all the options for a fair and balanced poll or don't bother with the poll at all.


Personally I will be making a female character. She wont be "hot" but sure wont be ugly. I like to make female characters because they feel better to play, and I think the armor overall looks better because it tends to be more form fitting. I hate needlessly bulky armor, as well as skimpy impractical armor.

Of course I'll have a male character, as I'm a male myself..

The first one laughs at the "hot" while showing her "goods" in her avatar, and the other one wants "no supermodel" while on her picture it is a feminine "modellooking" chick..

:facepalm:

Manly orc first. Chicks later. Then again, they might repeat the vampire face bug from Oblivion, and we get both genders at once!

I'm in the same boat. I'm sorry, but I don't expect my character to be much a "supermodel" when I'm trying to survive random dragon encounters and, not to mention, the unforgiving landscape itself... I'm not going to be shaving my legs in the snow. In that case, I'll want that hair down there!! XD

Your opinion, if it is fitting one can bend the pole however one wants. But one can always comment on appearance so saying " she won't be hot or ugly " is kind of..

Lol. I'm a roleplayer and I intend on making most of my characters as very down to earth and believable. Not running around looking so unbelievably stunning that when in the course of the main quest you encounter an actual Goddess, she looks fugly next to my character. Besides, avatars on forums are a very different thing than playing a char in a game. :b

Also I wasn't being serious when asking where the 'casually beautiful' option was. ^^

It could be a FGAS. Approach with caution.



:angel:

Male. I may make a female at some point, but it will likely be an orc or somesuch.

It depends, when I have a male PC I like to have a female companion & if I have a female she usually ends up a loner.

Look lady im just stating facts rationalize away :spotted owl:

and if i cared so much i would have done an "in depth poll" :twirl:

I play both.

It's a video game, play how you want, you can be anything, sometimes I like playing as a cat-person that kills people in the shadows (khajiit female, because I think they fit that role the best), other times I'd like to play as a generic viking warrior that hacks people apart with an axe and a sword (nord male, same reason, fits the role perfectly).

mm it's all value questions anyway, but people bltch every time they see an opportunity to feed their ego.

Female because there is a lot of male protagonists.

I always choose a female.

Not purely for aesthetics, as most of the time she would be in 1st person so I don't see her much. It's just that I don't consider myself the character; I consider myself the character's mentor, giving orders like some sort of ghost. A partner in crime, perhaps.
