serious question. why would anyone pick the boy? the girl design is much better and in a world full of cutesy monsters, playing as the girl makes more sense

gosh yes
Because boys are better and cuter than girls.
Next question?
Game is asking me if I want to be the girl. I'm not a mentally ill trannoid so I say no.
I pick boy in the other games because the girl option becomes another character in the world you can interact with. Rosa is the only one that doesn't, therefore you have no choice but to play as her instead.
Im not a chud
Current Ganker thinks that the character they're playing as is literally them.
even back in tabletop playing a girl was sus
Maybe if you were a closeted homosexual. Thankfully the rest of us are normalfags and playing as a girl isn't going to trigger us.
did you played with Barbies as a kid because they were not you?
yeah I rubbed them on my dick when nobody else was home
You can't use a video game avatar as a inflatable doll. Cope.
See above. Cope
There is no such thing. Cope.
If you guys are gays or trannies just admit to it. Is not like your reputation means anything in this site.
>You can't use a video game avatar as a inflatable doll
barbies are not inflatable as far as I know. Neither is standard porn you watch on the internet.
But thanks for confirming you're a flaming gay. Not like it was ever in question though.
It means both the Barbie and the inflatable doll are physical objects that you can use to arouse yourself. Anyone that didn't flunk 5th grade could have understood the analogy. Going back to your example, why do people jack off to porn? The obvious answer for most people is self insert as the guy. In other words they want to be doing the fucking. If you think people just jack off to the image of the woman alone, then most people wouldn't need porn, and would just jack off to nudes instead.
>most mentally ill people is self insert
Fix'd.
Normal people masturbate to a woman getting fucked. That's the reason why jap porn has always been the most watched type porn on the internet.
They usually put the most attention to the girl getting fucked and reduce the guy to just an autonomous dildo.
then explain why women masturbating with dildos alone is not the more popular genre of porn?
you do know what "autonomous" means right?
you understood the question right?
did you? because a girl moving a dildo up and down her ass with her hand is not the same as a girl getting fucked by one.
What levels of cope is this? You're trying to sell me that most people fap to porn view the man as some sort of anthropomorphic dildo? lmao sure trannoid.
>literal gay is confused
> view the man as
that's the point.
Normal, straight, mentally healthy people don't even see the man.
All you need to know is that a woman is getting fucked to get excited. What is doing the fucking is irrelevant.
Just admit you're a gay that faps to the dude anon, there is nothing wrong with that
SAUCE
>You can't use a video game avatar as a inflatable doll
You can slap your dick on the screen until you cum.
>fellas is it gay to think girls are cute?
holy ESL
>He never masturbated with barbies
you a gay or something?
Barbies are cute in a girl way. Pokegirl designs are cute in a guy way.
well yes, im the nuclear survivor fucking every girl in the wasteland in fallout
>world full of cutesy monsters
you just know
all your degeneracy and hedonism will caught up with you one day, then you will weep and regret but it will be too late as you suffer for eternity you disgusting pretender of a human being
dumb ESL can't even catch up with his own posts (copypasta)
That kind of mentality is the slippery slope that made trannies mainstream
not everyone is a chud like you
in fact, most aren't
I'm a man, you dumbass. I can't pick the girl and name myself John like I do in every game
Gosh~
shoving your face into a legging'd up butt is EXACTLY as nice as you imagine it is bros
what about shoving your face into a legging'd up bulge
You, as a man, know nothing about being a woman, so you choosing to play a non-erotic game as one is just your AGP fetish, otherwise you’d have just jerked off to normal porn and went back to playing as a guy.
I pick the boy and amass an all-female team so I can imagine they rape him every night.
Boys who play as girls have daddy issues and want other boys to fuck them in the ass.
Both of the bw2 protagonists were ugly as shit with their soulless void eyes and retarded hair
To put yourself in the shoes of another sex is only normal for people of professions that require it, aka writers, dress designers, gynecologists, etc
For any other male to assume the feminine role is unnatural and often suggestive of some deeply rooted disorder
>me man, me no think, me no introspect, me no roleplay, me just be man
>you don’t think about how it’s like having a vagina = you don’t think at all
Great strawman, got any more?
daily reminder that self-inserting is a dead giveaway of crippling autism.
Normal, funcrtional people can just watch a movie and understand they're just characters in a movie that have nothing to do with them in real life.
Having to pretend you're someone else to enjoy things is literal mental illness
I thought we were talking about roleplaying games where you assume the role of your character, not movies?
Your character is not you. It's a character.
Unless you have literal complete control over it, you're just watching him and his story.
The game has an objective that you must clear to proceed? then it's not "you", it's a character being guided by the game and you're just seeing it going through it.
It's literally me though. I'm in another world bro
What about when someone asks you a hypothetical question? Do you also create a new identity to answer those?
Yeah? Tf do you do? answer an in-game question with the real life answer
>NPC: You sure beat me in that battle. How do you get that pokemon?
>player: I don't have a pokemon, what are you talking about? I didn't even battle you!
no I have no identity in real life so my entire self image must be constructed and reinforced by the media I consume, if you disagree then you're the one with mental illness
>daily reminder that self-inserting is a dead giveaway of crippling autism.
Welp I guess Nintendo is the sole reason for Autism since 5 of their main IPs (Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Metroid and Animal Crossing) expects you to self inself as the character (or at least see the world through their eyes with YOUR thoughts going through them. FFS Zelda's protag is literally called LINK.
>expects you to self inself
Not really, no.
In mario you're helping him rescue his princess. The game never tells you "you're mario", same with the other games.
>In mario you're helping him rescue his princess.
Mario has zero personality. Unless you're a Papergay seething that Mario is non canon trash and dead.
Mario was always your avatar.
>Mario was always your avatar.
I don't think you know what self-insert means.
You controling a character does not mean you're self insering as him.
No one ever self inserts as mario, nor nintendo expects you to. The ads of the games even say "help mario save the princess" and shit
Mario players IRL
>I don't think you know what self-insert means.
Back in the 80s, this wasn't a character. He had no personality, no character, no identity but being a mascot for Nintendo. Even Mickey had more self ownership than Mario did and to this day, still struggles to do. Sonic from day one, had more character than him. That was the point. Sonic was Sonic, Mario was the player.
>Back in the 80s
Maybe in super mario 1 and that is debatable.
Mario was always mario and never just a self insert.
>A cardboard box is characterization now
Ok
>nintendo expects you to self-insert as mario!!!!! he was never a character!!!!!
>no they don't, they always treated mario as mario, even in their own ads
>d-d-d-doesn't count!!!!
ok
>Autism, attacks autism
Interesting. You do know they do the same with Link despite his literal name and director behind him said he's a avatar for the player, right? What about Dragon Quest heroes? Are they not avatars too?
>he's a avatar for the player
again, you clearly do not know what self-insert means.
, attacks autism
who are you quoting? or is this projection?
>girl
>world filled of cutesy monster
You just know
I think her hair is kind of stupid
Because I’m a boy
Don't have AGP
It's more immersive to play a guy if you are also one.
>inb4 "I don't want to stare at a man's ass"
The boy is what girls choose, obviously.
Girls don’t play videogames
I am too much of a self-inserter. I almost always use my real name in RPGs.
because im a boy irl you dumb fuck
>he doesn't want to see a cute girl all the time while playing
she's 14
Out of 10
Funny how I've never once seen anyone barge into a vidya boy thread full of teens and shotas and point out anyone's age. EVER.
It's almost like obnoxious gays are also hypocrites.
The majority of trannies on Ganker are men larping as women, so they go apeshit over attractive anime characters that look young, since it makes them extra insecure and they think women act like this(they obviously don't). I've even seen some of them call a character 8 when they're 17 but short; anything to call fans of these girls pedos. Also possible that its actual pedos trying to blow the smoke somewhere else, so it's like 2 birds with one stone.
Ganker likes to yell chud over a lot of things, but for this it's very clearly trannies.
Vidya boy threads have their own problems, like the guys who ask "is this thread full of women or just fags?"
kek. There's really is always one. Like they're never satisfied with the first answer they get.
It's thoughtless spam that gets guaranteed replies, and you're one of them. Good job.
do pokemon fans ever agree on anything besides wanting to fuck children
No, it's the reason we can never have a comfy thread just talking about what we like about the games and the mons
they want to fuck dogs too
Because I'd much rather be a boy and have a harem of female mons as my team
>Verification not required.
I don't want to be the girl. If I were really that desperate, I'd just go to the panda.
>Playing as a girl makes more sense because of my personal taste
Ok? I pick the boy because I think he looks cool and I usually pick pokemon that look cool (not cute) to be in my team.
Because unless the girl offers a notable difference in stats or abilities that I deem beneficial then I have no reason to pick her. I'm a guy, so i'll generally play guys until the aforementioned factors come into play. Anyone on either side trying to argue anything beyond that is retarded.
>50 replies
>no Hilda posts
gay thread
Acktually:
The bottom screen, I usually try both characters to see if any one of them has a dealbreaker, so I don't choose on design alone.
In fifth gen the bottom screen was blue for the male character and pink for the female, and the hue of pink they choose was really unconfortable for me (too bright it stung my eyes)
Another example is in ORAS, I can't stand the male throwing pokeball animation.
What about if i choose the girl(male)?
There isn't nearly enough of this content out there and I'm fucking starving. All poke-yaoi is with shitty Ash and I'm sick of it.
I recognize the objective superiority of separating coom and game. If I play games I want to have fun, I want to play a good game, I want to concentrate on the game elements. If I want to coom I just look up porn and coom. Mixing these two worlds has literally only disadvantages in which you always either distract yourself or eat bottom of the barrel shit to satisfy your urges.
>why would anyone pick the boy?
I honestly feel bad that Pokemon boys are some of the most hated video game characters just for being male
People like Red and Ethan(Gen 2 OG Design)
They just hate the Moelop designs from Gen 3-onwards
Pokemon used to have a cool art style before turning into full-on moeshit
I'm not Chinese unlike Mei-chan
>BW2
If you're gay you pick Rosa so you can date a guy-idol in the post-game
If you're straight you pick Nate so you can date a girl-idol in the post-game
I've played through the game probably five times and not once did I bother with the ferris wheel shit beyond what was required.
Neither gender gets to date Bianca so none of this petty shit even matters anyway.
Hildaposters are sissies who wish they were her
Well you aren't wrong.
Dumb hildasissies always flaunting their dickthirst
You got me.
see:
I want to dress you up as Hilda, lube your hole and ram it until you dribble out a load..
You know the rules anon, the one who loses is the the one who has to "pay up".
And you'll lose in such a pitiful way you'll doubt if you should even bother to continue training and not just skip to "paying up" everytime.
You can try your luck but you might be the one limping home with wet booty shorts and ruined makeup.
Or maybe I'll drag you to my tent and spend all night wrecking each other's holes until one of us gives up or passes out.
Now that sounds even better.
Up for it then, Hilda?
Sure, but only if you dress up for the party too.
No problem on my part, as long as we rile each other up...
Perfect.
i want her body
>EchoSameface
and yet I keep tugging to their stuff
depends on which game.
Gen 3? May all the way. Brendan became lame to me when I found out he wears a hat.
Gen 4? Lucas since I don't like Dawn in the anime besidesberets are cool
Gen 5 it depends. BW1 always Hilbert. BW2 always Rosa, but mostly because I can't stand Nate's hair.
Gen 6 onwards is boy only because I feel weird dressing up underaged girls.
In the remakes I pick what mirrors above except FRLG and HGSS where it's always Red/Gold because anything else doesn't make sense according to my Autism.
but if you play as May you don't get to talk to her, or hear her great encounter theme
Wait the fuck up, their encounter themes are different??
You just melted my brain Anon. The last time I played as Brendan was like 17 years ago or whatever so I don't remember it beinf different at all.
the encounters are, the battle theme is the same
you might find it better, but May's is very nostalgic for me
>but May's is very nostalgic for me
Nah I feel you, the one you just posted is what flares up my nostalgia.
God I kinds wanna do a playtrough now. I managed to snag a Ruby version on a yard sake for like 10 bucks last year and I haven't touched it yet.
>I don't like Dawn in the anime
Maygays have the worst taste
Dawn was the best partner Ash ever had
>Dawn was the best partner Ash ever had
Meh, I didn't like her. Though I am more of a Mistyfag.
Still feels kind of wrong to me.
Misty was the worst
Why?
Serena is clearly mature looking in the game
Tits and everything
anon you don't have to defend yourself lol. It just feels weird to me, I can't really put it into words.
Also, I can't into girl fashion so my female characters end up looking like boys or sluts.
cringe
>my female characters end up looking like boys or sluts
but that's the best part
Fashion and makeup has killed every "girl sim" game I've ever played. Everytime I pick an outfit that makes my dick hard NPCs think she's too slutty, and everytime I try to dress her sensibly it's either a male style or NPCs say it's too boring. I'd like to jack off to girls but there's too much fucking bullshit to put up with even fictionally. At least with male MC I don't have to give a shit how they look because I'm not jacking off to them.
>Gen 6 onwards is boy only because I feel weird dressing up underaged girls.
Serena is like 16 or 18
Some of the excuses that people use to play as the girl character is absurd, if you care so much about looking at a cute girl or some shit then go to panda or one of the boorus or some shit. I just play as a male character cause why not, the "reasons" I have for playing as a girl aren't even that worthwhile considering what the internet does to them basically fills that niche anyway and for alot less effort.
Pokemon used to have cool boy designs in Gen 1 and 2 but then they just stopped trying
Is it a coincidence that Gen 1 and 2 sold the best?
because I'm not autistic so I don't think about pretending being a girl or wanting to fuck pokemon
>or wanting to fuck pokemon
why are you picking the boy then?
Only reason to do so would be so you can fuck the pokemons
Can we just talk about video games and not how you want to either nut inside something or cut your cock off? These threads are so fucking tiresome.
>gets into the "are you straight or a fag" thread
>"can we not talk about straights or fags?"
anon?
What's that, video game discussion on the video game board?
This is for you too.
At least I'm not in denial.
People aren't video game characters bro.
If you're going to be an autist, at least do it in D&D where you have actual control over the setting of your character.
>People aren't video game characters bro.
>What is escapism
I get it, you're just low IQ and cannot form an imagination unless told to you.
Do you really walk around in games pretending you're the character? That's extreme mental illness bro.
It helps with immersion. The character cannot do anything without my input. This isn't a snoymovie "game".
Bro, you should get checked out. That's like peak autism.
>Zoomers can't relate to things
It checks out.
I can think of my character as an independent entity making choices of my choosing in the game world without needing to think of it as myself. If you want to go on a wacky self insert isekai adventure, get into a D&D like game session or something.
>I can think of my character as an independent entity making choices of my choosing in the game world without needing to think of it as myself.
They aren't real though. They are just pixels.
You are black, aren't you?
Why yes, I do play as a female elf mage in D&D, how can you tell?
"relate" does not mean "self inflict schizofrenia" anon.
>muh zoomers
not sure if ad hominem because of a lack or argument or just projecting. I'm betting is both
>The character cannot do anything without my input
all that means is that you're a puppeteer controlling a puppet, not that you're the puppet
Coombrain!
Does cola really turn you into a girl?
No, it makes you SSUUUUUUUUUUUUPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERR!!!!
Too much sugar can fuck with your hormone levels.
I want to be a girl with a big butt!
What for?
to sit on maybe
To sit on a fat cock, maybe
i want to be the little girl
This. I’ve always wanted to be a pretty little princess.
Being a child is picking the boy because you're afraid of feeling insecure if you don't.
Being an adult is picking the girl because they are much cuter and you feel secure in your masculinity regardless.
Being an utter failure of a manchild is playing Pokemon after the age of 20 because the art and models still make your peepee hard.
what if I play it at 30 because the games are fun
Then you reached gamer enlightenment.
I feel like that depends on which game and how much of a spectacle you make of it.
It's one of those questions that has clearly defined wrong answers but pretty vague correct ones.
Let's just use a shotgun approach and say with your picrel, age, and implications, suicide by age 40 seems likely.
Why do you 19 year olds take reaction images so seriously?
Sometimes I want to play with both hands
yeah, that literalwho on twitter said so, so it's totally true.
>tfw give father xbawks controller
>he picks the girl with the fattest knockers and widest hips, every time
>198 likes
Literally a nobody. Why would someone see that and just accept what she is saying.
That's right, respect my pronouns you bigot
People who play as female characters are low test
women!
>and in a world full of cutesy monsters
I think this underscores a big problem with what Pokemon became
This. People bitching about BW for being "muh overdesigned" and "looks too much like hecking digimon" is what caused us to get shitty and lazy designs in the current mainline games
Poopymon didn't have "overdesigned" pokemon, it had Yokais that looked nothing like Pokemon and had designs far removed for ACTUAL Pokemon of yore.
Selfinsert fags get the rope
I play boys because I like shotas
Self insertion, gay trannie?
I wanna be the guy because I'm a dude. Unless, which in this game there's at least an excuse besides being a chud, you can stare at the ass, then by all means go ahead.
I'm still assblasted they did not let Brendan and May go on lewd adventures together back in Emerald when fucking Colosseum did it just fine. Fucking Gayfreak hackjobs.
>Self insertion
Mental illness to the highest degree
I typically play with males because its satisfying, but I think people are misunderstanding one thing. I'd play with Rosa and other females, not out of autogynophilia but because I am a straight male that enjoys a good game and the various peep shots I may perform on the character in question. Rosa is cute and has tits, thats more than enough of a reason for me to choose male over female
I meant female over male goddamn it
The story makes more sense when you pick male in every game where you choose the main character's sex.
Not really.
Even more when most games don't even bother to change the dialogues depending on the MC's sex
I usually play games multiple times, so yes and no.
I only like looking at female buts when they are pooping
girls don't poop retard
Self inserting in videogames is genuinely really fun. I don't know why you fags let actual /u/chuds poison your brains so easily. It's fun to self insert and roleplay in an rpg, I don't need to see cute girls all the time and I'm not going to go apeshit when I see a male character. I'm a guy and having other characters see me as a guy is nice.
>Self inserting
Are you a 14 year old boy?
No /u/ chud, I just enjoy immersing myself in stories. Nothing about that is immature. When I was 14 I would always pick the female character since they were hot, as I got older I started enjoying the stories more but felt disconnected and could never emotionally invest myself enough to really care about what was going on. 'self inserting' is the point of ROLE PLAYING games, and makes them more enjoyable. If I enjoy it, I'll do it, simple as that. YOU need to grow up anon and stop paying attention to the views of others.
It's not even that I always self insert either. Mindless shit like monster hunter is where I play as a girl and force her to wear slut armor and modded armors. Story heavy games like code vein are where I will always play as a guy and immerse myself.
>I just enjoy immersing myself in stories
immersing into a story is not the same as self-inserting as the main character anon.
You can immerse yourself in a story without having to pretendo youre a different person.
I don't care how to you twist it, I can emotionally invest myself better when I self-insert, so I do it. I don't care what some fag on Ganker has to say on that.
If the character is already set then I'm obviously have no reason to do so, its a story I'm viewing. Though I prefer when the MC is at least relatable since the story is through their eyes.
To be more clear, self insertion allowed me to enjoy stories more and become emotionally invested. It's just more fun to do, and games are meant to be fun.
>self insertion allowed me to enjoy stories more
and that is called autism, and in more serious cases, mental ilness. Yes

No it's not retard. I'm not about to trust the definition of autism from a certified autist on Ganker.
If it's more enjoyable, I do it. Why is it more enjoyable? Because stories are become more indulging and character interactions feel more personal.
You'd at least have some point if you called me a normalfag, but I don't give into shaming.
I meant that the character is 14 year old, so either way he is far from your demographics already.
I'm pretty sure b2w2 protags are 16.
It's a game, I don't mind simply imagining myself as that character anyway, age and all. It's not like a 14 yr old has the retard hair nate has anyway.
Imagination is a powerful tool, anon. Hell when I play moemon black 2, I can simply insert myself as a gigchad without need for any visual aid. It's why I'm not one of the impotent gays screaming for college or working age protags in rpgs, Teenage and even little kid protagonsts work fine anyway. Works for Grandia, works for smt and it works for pokemon.
If I can fuck the monsters Ill play a boy.
If the monsters can fuck me Ill play a girl.
Simple as.
imagine wanting to look at a male butt all the time and believing you are straight
Why are you looking at the guys ass in the first place?
Poop comes out of there.
Why are male butts (clothed and not emphasized in any way) so repulsive to you?
When you play a game, you typically look at the environment. You're genuinely just a coomer that needs therapy.
No bro I ain't gay.
I LOVED playing pokemon games while it poured down with rain outside and I waited for my neglectful parents to pick me up 4 hours after school ended and it got dark!
>pick girl
>only use pokemon that look like dogs, horses or pigs
I call this challenge the "white girl challenge".
boys > girls
Why not both?
It's dangerous to sit on the fence when it comes to opinions like these
why wouldnt you want to be a girl in your teens and 20's. the whole world is handed to you. you can literally just play videos all day and make millions streaming. definitely makes sense to be a man post-30 but before that? chud out
Because I am not a girl. Simple as
The only time I picked the girl in a game was Borderlands because I wanted to have cool superpowers, if you picked female in any game were you don't get anything different from male character you might have a problem and that problem is wanting to be a girl.
