sleeping with benny and smother him with pillow in his sleep in new vegas

In oblivion with the quest with female bandit, isntead of pretending being a victim, you get to join and catch them in the act.

A whole quest becoming a stripper questline that ties to a serial killer quest in fallout: nevada mod.

I think fallout 1 and 2 has alot of small differences too in this case, so are all troika games.

ATOM rpg has female PC as a stretch goal and devs promised female char will allow some alternative solution, dialogues and quests.
Wow, I'm beginning to think gaming might really be sexist after all :lol:
BTW, in Fallout 2 you can get various discounts and shortcut sidequests by sleeping with shop vendors and quest NPCs. I can't remember specific instances though. And I've never done it myself, thought it was too denigrating.
In one particular case, you get a discount off an mod to the car that you will otherwise have to pay for. You can wipe the stain off your honour by a called shot to the groin with your foot afterwards and kill them all, but the real stupid part is that you can also pay the guy and then wipe them out and get the money back anyway...

I think there is also a quest in Dragon's Dogma where you can do quests for one all female bandit group. If you are a female, you just walk in there and everything is fine. If you and your companions are male, you need to wear a set of female clothing.

Weren't there some differences in Baldur's Gate 2? Specifically, the drow city? I remember male PC being treated like dirt in general, and the daughter of the drow matron ordering him to sleep with her.

Some minor differences in dialogue (and that potential sex scene), yes. But because the PC (in disguise) was from another city, everyone could order them about regardless of gender.

I'm thinking, if you want realism there should be some downsides to that. Even today pornstars can't make it into politics etc. Back then, probably no man would marry them, or maybe fantasy isn't middle ages? Whatever but there are diseases and pregnancy too!

One design solution is some holy root, that women have to make a potion from to avoid that... yeah won't fly with SJWs

How many of you have played as a female character? Lots of men do that, and vice versa. Hence the demand for in game same-sex romances. It’s not that complicated. This idea that people only play RPGs as themselves is willfully obtuse.

If you make a female Shepard, say, because you’d prefer to stare at a woman’s ass for the whole game, you’ll probably also prefer lesbian romances. Just like lesbian pornography is very popular with straight men.

If developers really cared about catering to niche audiences, this place wouldn’t be so full of butthurt all the time.

The "I don't want to look at a mans butt, waaaah!" is probably the most retarded argument ever. People have butts, so what. It is not like you're forced to stare at it and it takes up like 2% of the screen. I just watch the environment, NPCs, enemies or whatever is around, probably forgetting my character is even there. If the mere presence of a male ass is so disturbing for someone, he probably is a repressed homo. I wonder how those people go outside, because there are men on the streets and they do have butts.

Meh, it's really not that complicated. The "if I'm going to stare at ass, it's better to be a woman's" thing is probably a meme. I play whatever comes to my mind, and most of the time that's a woman, I like competent and intelligent women and that's what I perceive my character as. I also dislike stereotypes, so I usually make all my physical damage dealers and tanks women and spellcasters and healers men. It also comes down to aesthetics, most of the time the women just look better, that's true irl for me too, I find there are more beautiful women than handsome men in the world.

There's also the fact I don't see myself in the characters I make, that's why I play RPGs and "role-play" as something else. I don't need to "identify with" them, I want it to be as alien to me as possible. I have a feeling that's just me, though, sooooo. Maybe it is complicated, lol.

There's one class in Pathfinder that I can't imagine playing a male character, the witch. I just can't take male witches seriously. They would look silly cackling for one thing.

You're truly making it a "fantasy" world then.

You are cutoff from one quest if you become a pornstar, male or female. Other than that, in a setting like Fallout2, I think being a pornstar would enhance your standing rather than diminish it. After all, the Hubbologists have a couple of them as their mouthpieces.

Even if that was true, and there are indeed no intelligent and competent women in the world, isn't that one of the selling points? Why would I recreate the real world in a fantasy setting? Or why would I follow the established fantasy roles and cliches?

The option "don't stare at the ass" is still there you know. Or you have a militant roommate going "Loot at the butt! Look! LOOK! BUTT!" every time you play? :D


I also dislike stereotypes, so I usually make all my physical damage dealers and tanks women and spellcasters and healers men.

So, the essence of SJWism. "The world generally tends to work in a certain way, therefore I am going to insistently demand the opposite in games." And then you wonder why some people are fed up with the "stronk gurlz beat everyone, hurr durr" trope stuffed in their faces at every turn.

Don't see how those are related. I'm also extremely sorry I play games the way I want to, I'll make sure to take into serious consideration opposing viewpoints/playstyles and make my physical characters male and the healers female, it will be as bland and samey as possible. This will show those damned SJWs :argh:

Searching for my kidnapped sister
You aaaaaaare making a mistake.

I want to stare at a female ass all game long. I assuredly dont want to stare at a man butt.

Because I want to do so, the differences between two type of asses, and the differences between the genders of those bodies, are important.

Get your eyesight corrected, damnit!

I hope one day some dev would make a game that will turn a male PC into a female, that way you can have the best of both worlds, start as a man and stare at a female and you might even be able to whore yourself up and explore how being a female feels like.
