Zoliru Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 No because even now everyone seems to think you're automatically a guy on every game everywhere. Unless you point it out that you're not, that is. yeah bicous if he says he is a she its true..... never believe it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordAsmolicious Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 It's 2014 and it's sad that there are still stigmas about females in general when it comes to the video game industry. "Remember Me" was a great example, it almost wasn't published because publishers were hesitant about a female-led game, that it wouldn't appeal to players since perception is that the majority of gamers are male and that males only want to play as male characters. Elizabeth from BioShock Infinite was pushed to the back cover of the game as opposed to on the front cover behind Booker for a similar reason. It's a little silly to be embarrassed about playing a female character in a video game, especially when the character is female in form and form alone. So then why is Portal doing nicely? you are playing a Female called Shell if im right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aercascade Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 yeah bicous if he says he is a she its true..... never believe it.... Never assume it. I made that mistake before! and man, that person that sounded like a 20 year old girl... wasn't. That was quite awkward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixty5 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I'm comfortable enough in my masculinity to play a female. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Apothecary1 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) Sex change in Warfram. It would be interesting to include the ability to change sex as an option of Warfram skin. This option would have been possible for both female and male Warfram. Produce such skin could be gradually.How do you like this idea ?

Jakl635 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 The DEvs have stated that they are not yet interested in exploring that option for Warframes. NO STOP lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent_of_Change Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Because you can't even be bothered to look at the active thread on the front page regarding this topic you don't even get new snark. Are we really having this conversation again? Is the inbuilt gender bias stupidity so deeply seated that it blocks even the ability to use the search function to see the many other threads that have discussed this ad nauseum? Come on people, this question has been asked and answered. and for those who really want a hard answer: If you aren't playing X frame because it is not the "right gender" for you the problem is with you and no one else, DE has stated it's not going to change. Expecting the world to conform to your particularly narrow views is just a recipe for repeated disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genoscythe Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Why is everybody against it? It would be awesome! if you guys want to live in your little mono-gender world then just dont use it if it comes out. Many people really like to identify with their character and this is impossible if it has a different gender. Also there is actually no reason for Warframes being mono-gender.

ArchPhaeton Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) Actually I support this. It would be nice to change body proportions as well (within reasonable tresholds). Many games have this... The concept was scrapped back then for reasons, guess it's easier to launch paint jobs to keep ppl buyin' platz. EDIT: Personally I see no reason for mono-gender, unless Orokin limited frame technologies according to gender. Variety is the soul of pleasure, you could have one version of each gender.

And you are wrong for assume people as such People dont WANT to live in a so called "mono-sex bubble" (lets learn the difference people) We really just dont care because if you havent heard the news: SEX isnt an important factor in this game, its about what you do with the frame Would a male Ember be appealing to me? Heck yeah but I would rather DE spend their time and efforts on more important things then trying to redo a model because a handful of people want it Maybe someday they will bring back male ember but until the game is fleshed out I would rather not Edited April 2, 2014 by Anatolius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReiganCross Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Ok, here's my 2 cents on this topic that will never go away. I believe that, yes, the Tenno should be a female or male only so it can closely relate to us human with our binary sexual nature that makes both gender different from each other (and pretending there are no difference in gender is just childish). However! I also like to believe that the Tenno Warframe is more then an armor. In my conception of how a Warframe work it is a device that not only encases the body of the Tenno in some kind of super-hard and flexible steel armor, it also warps the body of the Tenno so it can obtain all the skills of the Warframe armor. That would mean that a male Tenno wearing an armor originally designed for a female will be Warped by the armor's device so that his body more closely resembles what the armor needs, which is a female body. The same counts on the other side, a female Tenno attempting to equip a Warframe designed for a male body would be warped into the body of a male while wearing that armor. (I also believe that also warps the sexual organs but i honestly think that this little bit of information is absolutely irrelevant, so believe whatever you want.) The only downside to that theory is that it feels weird to know that your Tenno is being warped into something every time it wears a different armor. It explains why the armor are Gender exclusive, gives us a reasonable explanation as to why it will never receive another gender and gives us an explanation to some bizarre pieces of anatomy like Frost's Squall Helmet positively opening a hole in the Tenno's skull or some weird feet like Mag's or Nekros. It also explains why every armor have it's own body type instead of you having a strongarm Loki or a skinny Frost. (Another possible downside is that everything that this theory solves would be awesome to see implemented with the proper amount of resources allocated towards doing it. But you and i both know that DE's focus lies elsewhere, as in how to properly balance the Drop tables to makes us run T3 Survival runs for 3 weeks without a single bit of result!)

Genoscythe Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I'm pretty sure that those people begging for sex change are living in the mono-gender world, since they would only play all males or all females. Some people just like to have a virtual alter-ego, I see no reason why this is a bad thing. Gender swap is a logic addition, why the hell are there only male volts and excaliburs? It hurts nobody gameplay-wise and is optional, nobody is forced to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grailchaser Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Because you can't even be bothered to look at the active thread on the front page regarding this topic you don't even get new snark. And you don't see the hypocrisy in criticising people for having 'particularly narrow views' when you're shutting down people who are suggesting something without really considering why they want that thing in the first place? Like Genoscythe notes, people who really identify with their characters want to customize as much as possible and Gender can honestly be said to form the baseline of a customizable character. There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with someone wanting to change the gender of his or her character. There is, in my opinion, something wrong with people like you and your colleagues telling them to go away. If you don't like the thread of this conversation and have nothing constructive to add to it, just let the people who want it have a productive discussion. perhaps the fact that so many people are asking for it might in fact indicate that there is value to the concept, despite what the devs have 'decreed'. It's not your job to police the forums for people who don't agree with the 'word of god', and honestly all this sort of ridiculous forum censoring is going to result in is the devs getting away with silly policies because a bunch of forum-goers zealously profess the results of those decisions as set in stone.

We are not against it but the devs said they do not want to do it. It is not a problem at all and like other people have said if you cannot play a warframe because they are a different gender then the problem is with you and not the warframes gender.
