Do you self-insert as the character you play in a video game?
Do you self-insert as the character you play in a video game?
Yes, this is me.
Stop spamming this retarded image and go back to twitter.
No. Why would you?
Yes.
Why would Link be a simp here? Isn't it his job to protect her?
Cute girls don't think like that.
Only if it has a character creator that lets me be fat and ugly, with a no romance route
Yes because my life is empty and my future is depressing
No. I even go as far as keeping the protags canon name. I've never once called Link anything but Link.
Only if there silent protagonist.
>He doesn't know
I much rather insert myself into Zelda.
no, except for games that are explicitly bult for it like betheshit
i much more enjoy just being the seat of a narrative without having to feel like it's me doing it
i guess i just don't feel like everything has to be about me
I only play games in which I can make my own character and then I project at least an aspect of myself into the character, but I mostly try to make a character that fits well within the setting and story of the game
No. I'm not THAT mentally ill.
You don't need to be a person (self insert) or to forget what's reality and what's fiction ("immersion") to empathize with the characters in a story.
Yes, it is a requirement in my games. That's why I don't like female main characters. Because I am a heterosexual man. I can't identify with women.
thats just autism
It's actually a sign that you have a severely underdeveloped Anima according to Jungian psychoanalytic theory
Never. It feels like devs badly want this to happen with stuff like silent protagonists or limited dialogue options, but vidya is one of the worst options for self-insertion or roleplay to me. I am not a mute who only nods or grunts in real life, and many times theres no dialogue option for what I'd really want to say.
However games are unparalleled at making me immersed in the environment and atmosphere of a place.
OP is a retarded subhuman
t. virgin trying to stir up shit
Cope, simpcel
No
only thing i insert is this dick down your mothers throat you filthy tranny gtab
Pretty sure that's OP.
Game?
No
If a male then yes. If I get the option to name my character I always choose my real name.
>Jungian psychoanalytic theory
astrology tier
Looks like a Sanctuary Hills house in the background so I'm thinking some freakishly modded Fallout 4?
Maybe it's just over your head
never once in my life. Since I was a kid I've always thought that I'm a voice in the main characters head that only he can hear and he's slowly descending deeper and deeper into madness trying to figure out if he has any agency at all or if everything he's ever done in his life is cause the voice.
>You don't need to be a person ... to empathize with the characters in a story.
Spiders get out.
no, only women do that because they are mental infants
