      Got it! So how do you usually play RPG games with character choice? You said your first character was a half elf warlock and then you switched to a dragonborn cleric, what made you choose the half elf at first and what made you switch to the dragonborn?

      And if you don't mind me asking, have you ever encountered a game which had the perfect character creator to build a character that actually represents you?

          I see! Yea, I saw that too, that half elf is one if not the most picked race. There are also a lot of high elf characters in general in the game when it comes to NPCs. More than I would have thought. I suspect you're right when it comes to warlocks. I have a Cleric in my party and I absolutely love their role in my party. I have a hard time switching them out for story events because of their usefulness so I think Cleric is a great choice.

          Interesting. So what do you think about having body types be called Body A/B instead of male/female? Just pandering or does it help you identifying with your character more?

              I expected as much, although I'm absolutely fine with taking gender names out of body type choices. But as long as those gender types are binary and look exactly like typical male and female bodies there's not much of an upside to having them be named A and B. As always there needs to be more customization to include everyone.

                  That does suck. As someone who isn't impacted by this I even thought it was getting better but I guess what I was seeing was just superficial choices like the Body A/B stuff I was talking about earlier. I am privileged enough to be only ever impacted by wanting the beards to have a different color than the hair. Which is actually a thing in a lot of games nowadays. I can hardly imagine how it must feel for everyone else to want to play as someone they can at least identify with, when the options are so heavily skewed towards a certain demographic.
