Male/Female choices for Path of Exile 2
" Did they? D2 is considered top tier amazing. D3 and D4 are top tier trash. Coincidence? Seriously. Do not give a single second of attention to these twitter warriors GGG. They are a virus. Last edited by Woodydave44#4966 on Dec 8, 2023, 12:35:51 PM

" Yeah like I said I agree. If it's the devs vision to create thematic characters with their own story and personality instead of generic, I do not want to interfere with their vision and its probably better. I did not think of it this way. Just telling the other guy my solution cause he asked. |

" Worth noting: 1.) Grinding Gear has way more money and people than Ghost Ship. Enough that this is a nonfactor? No, clearly not. But they do. 2.) Ghost Ship has never slammed the door in people's face and said "nah fuck you." It's too big a pull for them right now given what else they're doing, but they've acknowledged it's something they keep in mind and keep an eye on. That's fine. Most importantly, 3.) The Deep Rock community isn't absolutely fucking awful when this subject comes up. The DRG community doesn't spend as much time as it can being a bunch of phobic jerks lambasting anyone who wants this for any reason, regardless of the reason or how mild/understandable the desire. That's what gets me more than anything else. Not that Grinding Gear consistently ignores this issue - we all know why they do that and they're never likely to stop. We had one chance, and that chance has sailed. C'est la vie. But everybody in this festering cankerhole being a fester canker, trotting out all the tired old phobic nonsense? That bugs me. |

Maybe it's just me, but POE is anything but an immersive RPG to me and those i play with - heck I play with the minimap open like 99% of the time, not looking at my char or caring what it's saying.
Just doesn't seem like it matters at all to me considering what kind of game this is. It's one thing in a game where we're expected to get invested emotionally into our characters, but i'd find poe no less fun if my char were literally just the items floating around an invisible genderless ghost. |

For me not being able to choose my gender is a major issue. I personally like to play male characters. I like being able to immerse myself into the game I am playing, however I will never be able to do that as a female character. Not being able to pick the gender that I want has and will continue to make half the classes unplayable for me and thus taking away from the experience. What I don't understand is why people who are okay with playing as a female character would need it to be gender locked? Having the option to play as a male or female isn't causing males who play female characters to not play, But your losing potential players by not allowing people to choose their gender. It just makes no sense why you wouldn't give that option and why Locking in genders to specific classes exists at all?

" Do you know what really sucks? POE 2 being developed around controller and for console. As a PC gamer since 1998 I am furious that GGG caved in. I somewhat understand their decision (as several companies did before them) because money is to be made on console. I am indeed allowed to hate that decision, as well as other people hating the gender locking but plz don't make thread after thread about it. Heart of Purity

I'm fine with the gender lock. Most of the people I play online games with don't play their irl gender anyways.
