It has to do with the fact that we can't admit we enjoy what we enjoy for mundane reasons. It's okay to enjoy a bland open world with nothing to do like Forspoken or checklist open worlds like AC Valhalla. They're mediocre sure but no fan admits this because this means they enjoy mediocrity and that is an unacceptable thought, so self preservation kicks in and you get a less than polite reaction.
This isn't limited to games either, it applies to practically everything. I had a decent time with the Uncharted movie, it was absolute garbage, but I had a decent time nonetheless cause it was mindless fun. However I'd never recommend it to anyone cause I know it's like a 2/10 at best and is a waste of time. It's just that I personally on that day, didn't mind the movie being braindead and can accept that it was garbage that I had fun with.

Funny enough I played a female character in several mmo's, not one man has ever tried sexually harassing me

How did you make it, especially the hammer? I plan to get into a bit of cosplaying myself and I'm just curious about the process that you took. Great job here by the way, I haven't seen very much like this and I have to say you outdid yourself here, congratulations!

Lol I has a character I recreated across a couple of different games since the style fit. She was a tall pale ginger, my girlfriend at the time was short, chubby, and black. She accused me of having a type and got real mad lol

Yes, and very openly. We either tried to rig something up to hide parts of the screen from eachother or made being able to look at the other person's screen part of the game.

Why would it be weird? It's a role playing game, your character is playing a role. Now elden ring is a weird game to roleplay as a dishwasher in but - just kidding!!
But seriously yeah I've made male and female characters depending on the mood. I think it's weirder to try snd create a clone of yourself personally. I try to create a character I feel would fit into the existing lore of the game

People don't know about it because it isn't true. You're really trying as hard as you can to remain ignorant. Who are you to decide a games genre above the people who made it?

So your post is here because as you said, noone missed dead space, but also you say a lot of people haven't played dead space? Confusing stance, mate.

It is the spiritual successor of system shock 2.
which is known to be action role playing survival horror game, and a landmark in video gaming history.
Also the reason why google lists as such.
You're right it isn't known or marketed like that, and it's also the reason why I posted it.
Because not a lot of people know about this.

Or he makes less than ideal female avatars.

As a woman and a gamer, I don’t find it odd or weird. It’s a game, the point is to have fun while playing. You don’t have to mimic real life. Playing as a male or female shouldn’t have anything to do with one’s sexuality. Everyone is different and has different gaming preferences. Just do what you enjoy regardless of how others feel.

for me it depends on roll play. im a guy so normally i lean towards male characters but for games like swtor it feels wrong playing a jedi healer or a sith sorc as a male so i almost always play those females. but as far as weirdness. i dont think its weird and i have friends that do the same thing.

How about you grow a pair and just play it... If you don't like playing it it's not a big deal. Jesus christ

that'll never happen, marketing departments are hacking your brain making you think your identity is associated with brand
