discussion Do you find it difficult to play a protagonist that doesn't align with your self?

[ZonicSquared2]

Being black, yeah. A little bit.

Self inserting has always been a bit weird to me in the first place. I think it's more fun to view the world as an observer.

I'm probably gender apathetic, so I don't really care if a PC is male/female. My issue with some characters is their actions. If a character is dumb, or pointlessly deceitful? That's going to create a big disconnect for me. Same thing if they are an ugly bastard, since I don't really want to see that having sex with someone.

Every VN i play i use my alternate ego "Jake". He likes alot of taboo acts, basically what i might do if i said "fuck it..." lets live life like i have a week left to live and dont give a shit about anybody else or who i hurt.

Harems, impregnation, corruption of young girls, incest, rape, are all on the table and preferred in the AVNs. But i must also say that ive played a few AVNs that were well written and more about love and relationships that i did enjoy, although those are rare.

With that said i have a certain dislike of games that force anal/blowjobs on a girl or some gay bullshit, when there's a perfectly ready cunt i could fill. edit - oh and i should add Cucking... If the MC gets cucked without extreme revenge possible, that'll be a hard (but going limp) and fast uninstall...

Not really, one reason I play games is to get out of the real world and experience something you wouldn't otherwise

I found it super hard to play a game with a female protagonist, i don't put myself in the place of the MC but the ideia of being a male and acting as one is more appealing to me.
Things like dom or sub don't bother me, i'm down for anything

Sounds narcissistic if you're having issues with a game's protagonist just because you can't self-insert, despite the game being very well-written.

 

[uwuuuuuuu]

my ego isn't that big

 

[topzoz]

Can't stand a pure evil character, being edgy for the sake of it.

 

[Blackfyreheir]

Haha for the easiest example to explain it, i can play any NTR game with a FMC and enjoy it, but if's a male MC POV, i can't touch it.

 

[asteris205]

Sometimes, but that's mostly dependent on the mc action's and the range of them.
