Weekly Question (Week 11)
There's nothing wrong with liking all of them equally. It's just a fun question. You don't have to answer the poll itself every single week. I enjoy learning about what people enjoy, and why they enjoy it. Nintendo for nostalgia. PC for gameplay. Playstation for selection. Whatever they like. It's all fun and games.

It seems Nintendo wins the round here by the looks of the votes.

I know and I wasn't trying to make a super-serious post with my last one, I've just seen the question "wHich console is bnmestest?/" asked on message boards since I was eleven and it always rubs me the wrong way.

I agree. The question is pretty stupid. I don't get why we have to argue about which is best when they all have pros and cons.









Exept for the PS2, the bestest vigia game system EVAR.

No one here has argued. It's all been a nice discussion. And it wasn't "Which is the BEST" it was "Which is YOUR FAVORITE".

Week 7 answer-

I create a slightly different version of myself. I still like my characters to have brightly colored hair, tattoos, big boobs, and my style, but I tend to make them a little skinnier than myself. And I also get my type of clothes and accessories, but nicer than what I could afford in real life. I'll also give them more tattoos if I can, because I want more in real life but don't have the money.

I go two ways when making a custom character. I make one that is myself so that I can see myself do things. I also make a female version of myself (or as close to one as I want to make it). That's the joys of being a cross player.

My choice was completely off the wall, because I usually make characters with physical attributes that I think look cool, but I will occasionally make a character that looks like me.

I want a wacky thing a ma jig to be my character.
Sometimes I make myself.

Make it as close to me.But I also like to put in attributes that relates to the game itself as I like to consider them as alternate universe versions of me.

None of the above, this time around. I just do what tickles my fancy at the point when I'm creating.

A poll I cannot answer because I make my custom characters either based off of other game characters or off of characters I have made for stories I've been in the process of writing.

I create myself, or at least as close as the game lets me. It's always annoying when a game doesn't give me the proper hairstyle or something. It's always funny going back to older games and seeing how I kinda looked like back then :D If the game's limited in options (like, say, DayZ) I at least try to match the skin color and clothing style, or in the very least try to incorporate my favorite colors.

On a related note, people have told me that my GTA Online character looks exactly like me.

The characters I create vary by game. In WoW, and Skyrim, I like short characters and ones I don't mind staring at the hind quarters of for hours on end.

In Fallout games, I usually don't focus as much on such things because I'm gonna end up in some sort of full clad armor anyway.

In Xenoverse, my first character was a recreation of Crono from Chrono Trigger because of artistic and thematic similarities.

In X-Com, I color coordinate people based off of their class for utility reasons.

In Soul Calibur, I like to make people that fit the class they're in and mediocre attempts at humor.

I also like to make out of place, "fabulous" characters because they're hilarious.

Rembrandt Jones always gets his guy.

(really though it depends on the game. I identify as my character, not WITH my character, so what they look like doesn't really matter.)

When I'm playing American football, usual collegiate, I'll create a team just so they can wear awesome uniforms and I'll be playing. Or I'll find a way to play for the University of Tennessee. NBA? I'll create a nightmare for the 1992 Olympic "Dream Team" (but, I did find out my favorite team on NBA 2K14 is the Olymiacos Piraeus B.C.).

I pick features of myself that I like, I suppose. I usually pick the body-type I had when I weighed less, muscles and skin were more toned, I had something of a six-pack, etc. All things I desire to have again, but I'd have to post in the vent thread (but, I won't go there. Ultimately, I blame myself).
The only thing that pisses me off about create-a-character is whenever I go with a beard or a chin strap or pencil line or whatever, the hair usually never connects in front of the ear. I end up going with a goatee, then. Maybe I'll gap that space with my razor or trimmers so I'll look like my created character. Ugh.
