I almost never name them after myself anyway, usually sticking to manga color names for them so i feel no qualms about not playing my own gender.ShaneAndersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00448747825039919254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-53532463019111325602012-07-30T01:59:30.465-04:002012-07-30T01:59:30.465-04:00I liked the option when it was introduced in Cryst...I liked the option when it was introduced in Crystal, and chose it out of novelty back then. After that, I just usually chose the female character because the design is usually better. In other games, I decide based on other factors. If the character is voiced, I find female voices preferable to male voices.ShadianVisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14781350411603488703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-16654916622872907292012-07-27T16:02:53.446-04:002012-07-27T16:02:53.446-04:00I often choose the male character but it depends o...I often choose the male character but it depends on how girly the female one are. If she are cool i can choose her. In pokemon i only find Leaf to more appealing over the male choice. Her design is my favourite of all playable characters. I have never played Crystal but Kriss could be a decent choice. I still don,t understand why they toke away Kriss and replaced her whit the worst playable character in pokemon ever, Lyra. I honestly hate her design. I hope they don,t do something like this again if they ever remake R/S/E. That would be awful. I am little feministic but again i still often choose the male character.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08011495783928951262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-71829231646238767882012-07-27T15:59:32.561-04:002012-07-27T15:59:32.561-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08011495783928951262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-10322319221613882732012-07-25T18:26:40.615-04:002012-07-25T18:26:40.615-04:00Randomnly.
