Do you self-insert in games?

>>713178090 (OP)
Yeah. If a game allows me to roleplay as somebody, I'll always roleplay an idealised version of myself. It aids in immersion since I can more easily imagine myself as the protagonist of my own story.

>>713178090 (OP)
I play video games to disassociate. Why would I want to be me?

>>713178090 (OP)
>See deranged man with prison eyes
>Is that me?
Gave me a kek
I self insert to a point I guess, especially if they're intending you to. I never make myself in vidya though

Few games out there that let you be a fat fuck

>>713179896
The hell are prison eyes?

>>713180250
Those wide crazy eyes that you've gotta go to prison to get

>>713178090 (OP)

I always gravitate towards faceless violence man/robot in every game that allows character choice/ customization

>>713178090 (OP)
I usually do in singleplayer RPGs, yeah. I have much more fun roleplaying as someone else when I'm playing TTRPGs or multiplayer RPG video games.

If character creator I will make bimbo female a dress her like pirate hooker.

>>713178090 (OP)
Do I literally self-insert as if I was some isekai protag? No.
Do I sometimes Roleplay as an Outsider/ far off traveler to that location that would be just as lost and as directionless as me? Yes. The main point is to keep them in character and congruent with the world building of the setting.

>an idealised version of myself
Why not just yourself

>>713178090 (OP)
Only sometimes when there are enough customization options to make my character look like me. Otherwise, I just roleplay as one of a sizable handful of characters I've written before (fa/tg/uy).
Or as what I believe the character would act like in the case of games like Mass Effect.

>>713178090 (OP)
no that's for autists who can't grasp the concept of roleplay

>>713180028
literally in OP's game

>>713178090 (OP)
I never self-insert because it's boring and wrong
Actual intellectuals create characters from other games and media

>>713182356
Oh yeah true.
Also forgot about Grom, he’s proppa gutmaxxed.

I frame my player-created character as a version of myself born into the game world. He's idealised in the sense that he's usually stronger, braver, or otherwise cooler than me. I view character creators as vectors for me to insert myself into a game world. I'm capable of dissociating and roleplaying as original characters of my own creation, but I prefer to play as someone who looks like me and acts in ways I myself would act were I in his position. Usually, in games with set protagonists that also have dialogue options (or some other way to affect how the MC acts/is perceived), I make choices I myself would make so that the protagonist more closely aligns with my values.

Psychopathy isn't dictated by the shape of your eyes. I don't become a psychopath after getting cosmetic surgery to lower my eye sockets so that my sclera become more visible. This is just eye phrenology. ishygd take this shit seriously.

>>713185148
>t. sanpaku eyes

>>713183851
I have the 3rd set of eyes all the time.

>>713185148
you can tell someones emotions from eyes alone, however that graph is completely wrong and was made by a retard

>>713178090 (OP)
No. I always play as men too, I'm simply not a desperate pathetic fuck that either needs to live vicariously or wank constantly.

>>713180250
when the nigga steals your soul

>>713178090 (OP)
Yes, 100% of the time. That's why renegade Sheppard is the only way I've finished ME trilogy.

>>713184667
Same exact wavelength here.

no i don't self-insert. i play a as cute girl whenever im able to unless the game has romance. any game with romance i play as a dude

Every night when I sleep I make up stories in my head. Sometimes I continue them or I change the storylines. I’ve been doing this for 20 years.

>psychopaths not bragging about being a psychopath challenge
>difficulty: impossible

>actually i wasn't bragging and it was relevant to the topic and blablablabla

>>713186984
How fat or yellow is your wife? And lol at the /pol/ talking points when you play as women. Kill yourself.

>>713187401

>/pol/ talking points

You're off your meds again, anon. By all means though, keep assuming that I'm a psychopath. Your deranged posts are fun to read.

You do realize this chart was made by slant-eyed gooks, right?

>>713178090 (OP)
No, I just design the character to look fuckable to me

i don't play as women

>>713178536
I do the same thing for the first playthrough. After that I'll make more varied characters like my second person will ususally be an evil woman.

>>713188819
