This mainly comes as a healer: Learn the mechanics of the fights, and pay attention to what's going around you. So many people just focus on whatever their rotation is, usually trying to squeeze out just a little more extra dps. And then they find themselves on fire, falling off a cliff, missing an interrupt, whatever.

Focus on staying alive. You can't heal, tank, or dps if you're dead. The nitty gritty of optimized shit doesn't come into play unless you're doing the highest end-game progression type of stuff.

I don't. I create female characters mainly in RPGs and it's mostly down to that there's more variety in character creation and outfits. I used to main a male Miqote in FFXIV and switched it to female because I noticed that the male outfits were basically the same basics. Female outfits can have a skirt, pants or bulky armour.

I am a man and if I have the choice to play as a man or a woman in a game I will always choose a woman. Why? Cause I like women better. That's as far as this goes and I never gave it more thoughts than that. It's your character and you do what you want with it. Most people won't care and the few idiots who are going to lose some sleep over it deserve a bad night's rest. Do yourself, don't mind them.

My take on this, as it has been for years, is if they ever bother to give dude character creation the level of detail and choice they do for female character creation, I might actually play a male character. I tried to make one in Violet and it just sucked! My wife and I both play female characters on our MMO of choice and it's no big deal at all.
