Which do you prefer as the main character in a game, a male hero or a female hero?

主人公は男がいい
仲間は女がいい
I prefer a male hero.
With a female companion.

男キャラで主人公らしく楽しんだのちに
2週目から女キャラオンリーのふひひプレイこそ至高
The best would be to play the game like a true hero as a male character first, then just play with female characters from the 2nd run onwards 
22 NAME OVER 2008/03/19(土) 14:09:09.77 ID:d+8MNrIFP
主人公が女でもいいけど
周りも女しかいないのは嫌
アニメでも、レールガンとからきすたとかけいおんとか苦手だった
I don't have a problem with women as the main characters, but I wouldn't like it if there's no one but women all around her too. Even in anime, I didn't really like Rail Gun, Lucky Star, and K-ON.

消防の頃、
それでヴァルキリー・プロファイルを敬遠してた俺は負け組
I'm one of the losers who avoided Valkyrie Profile when I was in grade school for that reason

最近男主人公にも感情移入出来ないことが多い
多分、感情いぬーできないうんぬんは別の所に問題があると思う
There are a lot of times when I can't empathize with male heroes recently.
But I do think that the reason for this lies somewhere else.

主人公女最高!→ネトゲで女キャラ作るおw→ネカマ化
こういう奴多すぎ
Female characters the best! → Imma make a female character in an Internet game → Turns into a Nekama (guy who poses as a girl)
There are tons of these people.

男女選択型で恋愛要素が微妙にあるのに
男女によるシナリオ変化がないときの女主人公こそ至高
Games where you choose whether to use a male or a female character are supposed to have a slight effect in the romantic developments. But when there's no change in the actual storyline then choosing females is the best way to go.
38 NAME OVER 2008/03/19(土) 14:16:42.90 ID:nCYHBAl90
更に言うならおっさん主人公のが魅力的に思える
マーカスとかジョン・マーストンとかアイザックさんとか最高やが
And if I may add, it's even more appealing to have an old guy as the lead.
Guys like Marcus, John Marston, and Isaac-san are the best.

最近のゲームは女用装備ばっか見た目も性能がいいから困る
But it's troubling how the female's equipment in recent games are the ones that look better and perform better

アトリエで男キャラの好感度を上げている時の違和感。
大して気にはしないけど。
It's really awkward when you're increasing the likability parameter for a male character in Atelier.
Though I don't really mind it that much.

昔は女キャラ使うとバカにされたもんだけどな。春麗とか。
時代はかわった
People would make fun of guys who used female characters in the past. Like Chun-Li.
Times have changed.

俺が初めて買った女主人公のゲームはパラサイトイヴだったな。
あれは良かった。
The first game that I bought with a female as the main character was Parasite Eve.
That one was good.

女キャラが武器振り回してたり
燃えセリフ吐いたりしてもいまいち熱くなれない
I don't get heated up that much even when a female character swings her weapons around and says hot, passionate lines

和ゲーの男キャラはナヨナヨ過ぎて気持ち悪いから
女性キャラばっかり使ってるわ
男キャラは洋ゲーチック女性キャラは和ゲーチックなのが一番理想なんだが
Male characters in Japanese games are so weak and gross, that's why I always use female characters.
The ideal is having Western-style male characters and oriental-style female characters.
104 NAME OVER 2008/03/19(土) 14:58:59.15 ID:zEW9FTba0
でも女の主人公って少ないよな
ほとんど主人公男じゃん
But there aren't that many games with females as the main character.
Almost everything has a male hero.

そう?
最近ゲームのパッケージ手に取ると、
でかでかと女キャラ掲載のが多いぞ。
男主人公をでかでかと載せるゲーム減ったと思うよ。
Really?
When you take the box of these games from the shelves and look at the covers, you'd see a lot with massive drawings of girls on them. I think that the number of games which feature males has decreased.

とりあえず男装備ダサすぎ
どう考えてもデザイナー男装備どうでもいいと思ってるだろって感じの多い
同じシリーズの装備なのに男はネタ装備で
女は普通にかわいいドレス風の装備もよくあるし
まあ、女装備の下品なだけな高露出装備もどうかと思うが
Whatever the case, male characters' equipment are so tacky.
No matter how you think about it, it feels that a lot of game designers just don't give a damn about the male character's equipment. 
Even within the same series, male characters' weapons and stuff look like jokes while women have a lot of cute-looking dresses and such.
Well, I also don't know what to say about women's equipment which just exposes too much skin.

テイルズのマイソロとか明らかに男装備手抜いてたな
でも3でナナリーが主人公心配してくれる時に、
男主人公の時の方が親身になってくれたのは感動した
They obviously didn't put in too much effort on men's equipment in Tales Mythology.
But when Nanaly would show concern for the main character in 3, I was touched at how the male lead gave a warmer treatment.

ドラクエ3のあれはちょっと問題だったよなあ。
男選ぶメリット皆無だったし。
ただ、シナリオを重視すると男でやった方がしっくり来るんだけどねえ。
That was a bit of an issue in Dragon Quest 3.
There were no merits to choosing a male hero.
But things just felt right as a male leader when you were putting more emphasis on the scenario.

朧村正は逆に女主人公というかみゆきち目当てに最初にプレイしたけど
男主人公が一途で格好良すぎてキュンとなるわ
For Oboro Muramasa, I was initially after the female hero, rather, Miyukichi's voice, but I was touched at how cool and loyal the male hero was

装備のカッコ良さで決まる
ゴツゴツとかゴテゴテなのが大好きだから大体男になる
I'd decide depending on the coolness of the equipment.
I love massive, bulky types so I mostly go for male characters.

やっぱり主人公は男でイケメンがいいよな
若くても年とっててもいいから。
DMCのダンテみたいに
うおおおかっこいいみたいなキャラを使うとアドレナリン上がる
女版とも言えるベヨネッタはいまいちノリ切れなかった
You'd really want to have an ikemen as your main character, right?
Because he'd look good even if he's young or old.
Like Dante of DMC.
When you use characters that make you go "Uwoooooo, so cool!", it just pumps up your adrenaline.
The female version Bayonetta on the other hand though didn't exactly soar.

ゼノサーガのシオンが酷かった
個人的にあいつは主人公アレン君の引き立て役だということにした
Xenosaga's Shion was horrible.
I personally considered her like a supporting role to Allen-kun.

男キャラはおっさんばっかりでいいよ
ダンテみたいな色男キャラは腐が湧くから駄目
FF7のバレットみたいな奴ばっかりがいい
それが無理なら男キャラは出すな
They should just keep using old male characters.
I don't want the sexy types like Dante since that will just rouse up the fujoshis.
I prefer them to be all like FF7's Barret. 
If they can't do that, then don't even consider using male characters.

FF6・メトロイド・ペルソナ2罰とかは女主人公だけど面白かったな
FF6, Metroid, and Persona 2 had female heroes, but the gameplay was fun

ジャンルによる。
ホラゲは女が良い。
クロックタワーだって零だってバイオだってパライブだって
女主人公がホラー世界でサバイバルしたからこその面白さ。
It depends on the genre.
Female characters are good in horror games.
That's true for Clock Tower, Zero, Bio, and Parasite Eve.
It's good precisely because it's a female character trying to survive a horror world.

ガキの頃・・・主人公も仲間も全部男だろ 女とか弱いやついらねーよww

今・・・主人公も仲間も女がいいよな 男なんか見てて何が楽しいんだよ
When I was a kid... "The main character along with everyone in the party should all be male. I don't need women who are weaklings" ww

Now... "It's so nice having the main character and her friends as women. What's so fun about looking at men?"

マジレスするとゲームによる。

格ゲーみたいなキャラで性能や技が決まったゲームなら
ステータスや使いやすさで女の子使うこともある。

主人公がプレーヤーの分身となるゲームなら男
昔馴染みの友達と通信するし、いつも使う名前、
作るキャラ傾向が決まってて分かりやすいし。
その場合、サブで女の子使うこともある。
Seriously speaking, it depends on the game.

If it's fighting games where each character has its own abilities and moves, then there will be times that I'll use a female character depending on the stats and the ease of use.

If its games where the main character is like your virtual persona, then I'd choose a male character. Because I'd communicate with my old friends, use a name I always use and there's always been this pattern that I follow when making characters. In those cases, there are also times I use females as sub characters.

MGSの主人公が女だったらあんなに売れてない
If Metal Gear Solid's main character was a woman, it wouldn't have sold as much.

ペルソナ3pの女主人公は良かった
女の二股三股って面白い
The female hero in Persona 3p was good.
It was interesting having a female 2-time or even 3-time for a change.

同性キャラ使うときは自分の分身としてプレイするけど、
異性キャラ作る時は自分の投影ってよりも娘とか息子って感じだよな
When people use a character of the same gender, they treat it as their alter ego, but when it's of the opposite sex, it's more like the player's daughter or son.

俺もそんな感じだわ
男との恋愛イベントあったら胸が苦しくなる
That's how I feel about it too.
When there are romantic events with men, my heart aches.

アクションなら気にならないけど
RPGで女主人公はちょっと嫌
肝心なところで自分の意思とは全く違う行動とりがちだから。
だけど女性から見れば大多数の男主人公RPGに対して
同じような不満を感じているのかもしれん。
I wouldn't really mind it if I was playing an action game, but I don't want to have a female heroine in an RPG. That's because I'd do stuff that are totally against my own will during the most crucial times. But that must also be how girl gamers feel when they're playing RPGs which are dominated by male heroes.
