Asmongold says it would be \u201cweird\u201d to create a female character During Asmongold\u2019s February 13 stream, the Twitch star was scrolling through the Lost Ark subreddit, which prompted him to discuss character creation within games as a whole. Asmongold stated he\u2019d rather create a male character because it\u2019s closer to a representation of himself: \u201cI don\u2019t want to play a girl. I think it\u2019s weird. I understand this is like the apex boomer take. I don\u2019t like playing girl characters in-game.\u201d \u201cBecause I view the character in-game, as like my visual representation of myself in the game\u2026and unfortunately, I don\u2019t look like that,\u201d added the streamer. Asmongold said he could look like his character if he \u201cworked out a lot,\u201d saying that is what he\u2019s trying to \u201cget at\u201d with his reasoning. The streamer was quick to address any incoming backlash, should his comments be interpreted differently, after one viewer commented: \u201cIncoming Twitter posts.\u201d He continued: \u201cThere was one time I took a day off of streaming, and the day I took off of streaming, I got canceled\u2026I didn\u2019t find out I got canceled until two weeks later. Man, that was some f***** up sh*t.\u201d Lost Ark has already surpassed over 1 million players since launching on PC, becoming the second-highest concurrently played game in Steam history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
