I want to be something else when I play games. I don’t understand this need to be the same thing I am every fucking day. Bring on other genders, sexes, races, species, colors, limbs, all of it. Let’s be different. It’s a fucking video game.
Looking at my game library, I seem to prefer blank slate player characters.
In Factorio, you play as a humanoid in a jumpsuit.
In Satisfactory, you play as a humanoid in a jumpsuit.
Infinifactory you play as a humanoid in a space suit.
Antichamber you play as some being that can hold a gun-like tool.
Buckshot Roulette you play as…something that can fire a shotgun.
In all Half-Life and Portal games you play as a series of named but barely characterized people.
Return of the Obra Dinn you play as an investigator, each time you start the game it randomly chooses a male or female voice for the player character.
In Subnautica, you play as a stuffed wetsuit.

Argonian or Dark Elf, almost literally every time.
