When given the option to create and customise your own character in video games what’s your creative process?

Dare i also ask how it has or hasn’t changed since becoming your real self?

If you have pictures I’d love to see!

    I rarely have the mental stamina to work very hard on customizing my character. Generally on a first run through, I try to make a character that at least somewhat resembles me. Tall, pale, long reddish/brown curly hair and yellow/light-brown eyes. That’s usually good enough for me. If I’m on a second run or I’m making a non-human character, I usually try to pick a specific trait and then try to design the character around that. If I somehow come back for a third run or more, then it’s all just goofy messing around or slapping the random button if there is one.

    The only thing that’s changed since transitioning is that now when I make human characters that look like me, I pick the body type with boobs. I’ve always had long hair and been pretty feminine looking, so not much has changed with the rest.
