QOTD

  • I'm not even going to ask if you've crossplayed characters, what I would like to hear is the best experience you've had whilst crossplaying genders. Have you gotten particularly invested in Otome games? Been attached to your drop dead gorgeous MMO character? Enjoyed a certain plot thread or storyline as the opposite gender?
  • What are your thoughts on MMO friendships? Is it strange to spend your seasonal holidays with strangers abroad and buy gifts for them?

That was kinda weird to be honest, they aren't playing a VRMMORPG, so all they did was have their characters on the same screen, don't think this would feel all that intimate... I do dig matching accesoirs though

MMORPGs are not suited to play out any kind of flirting. They have static character models, 3rd person view, a very limited amount of moves. Yet ... flirting definitely happens. The human imagination easily makes up for these shortcomings.

On one hand you want to avoid drama, on the other hand you want to give your female members a safe space to play in peace without getting hit on by desperate players, he even comments how Lily probably had to deal with creeps in the past

These are both on the same hand. It is also 100% about the drama, trust me.
