@theNoctane I usually just pick whichever I think has the better designs. For Engage it was Female Alear, Three Houses was Female Byleth, Three Hopes was Male Shez

@MasterLeytrx You didn’t like female Shez?

@theNoctane I always choose the boy, but yeah, everytime I see the girl character being more popular ! How about you ?

@a_kh_villager Same, even if the female character has a better design I always choose boy

@theNoctane Female Alear > Female Byleth >

@LuisArmandoR So true

@theNoctane 99% of the time I choose girl. I like cute girls.

@Writing_Numbers They always get better designs too

@theNoctane I always choose the male cause I like men and id there’s romance id rather do the male romance options.

@RaeTheJet nice! Tbh when a game has limited romance options it makes it harder for me to choose, but most times I choose to play as the male character

@theNoctane I almost always pick female tbh- I just feel more comfortable.

@A_Spooky_Lad Understandable

@theNoctane I just go with which one aesthetically looks better. Often times in games where I create a character I get bored of playing as myself so I make my female OC and play her in whatever game

@WebzGallery Good point, sometimes one character gets a way better design than the other

@theNoctane *laughs in nonbinary*

@aryblack And don’t get me started on romance options 😭

@theNoctane For Fire Emblem specifically I just follow whichever version they’re pushing more. So Robin=Male, Corrin=Female, Byleth=Male, Alear=Female. Seems like they’re just alternating genders which makes it easy haha.

@BackstoryBen To be honest alternating with each entry is a good option

@theNoctane I choose the one that looks better. For example I am a girl but I picked M!Byleth because imo he looked better than the F. But in MMOs I am always a girl.

@theNoctane Typically always the guy unless the girl just has a gorgeous design or well written character. In FE tho i always pick the guy cos I think every female avatar looks ridiculous.
