I had a problem with the way Micah looked at first. Way too feminine. He still looks girly, but it doesn't bother me as much.

I don't have any problems with anyone's design so far in the series. :l
I was mostly reffering to other series that have let me down. xI
But I also feel that if there is another female protagonist, that she has a lot of expectations to live up to. ':D

Poor female protagonist...
She has so much more pressure to look good in this day and age than the men do. D:

Haha, yes, very unfortunate indeed.
I just feel this way because there are people who won't even play this game due to how the female aspect came out. D:
So fans might feel like they have to make up for the pain they feel, or something. :/

I dunno. I think that ignoring this game just because you play for a little bit as a girl is kind of stupid. If they just had the male aspect, would they still buy it? D:
To those who are refusing to pick this up because of that... Poopoo on you. :l
<3lulz jk I love everyone. :D

They probably would. :l
I can understand that it could feel like a slap to the face, coming this close yet still not recieving the whole thing, though. :C
I'm not upset over it, so I'll still play. :D

I don't play as women in games cause that not how I roll :D
So I'm not really affected by it. ;]
Out of curiosity, does anyone know about any RFO online support of any kind?

What's wrong with playing as a girl. Girls have to play as guys all the time >:(. Not really I don't care

. But I normally prefer to play as a guy. Unless there is wooing involved. No offense but I would rather woo a guy

.
I don't remember hearing about online stuff. I might have just forgotten though sorry.

Because it's weirder for me to be like, "OMG THAT GUY IS SO CUTE I WANNA MARRY HIM" then it is for girls to do the same with girls. :D
It's just genetics. Or something.
Nah, it's okay. I didn't remember hearing about anything either... So I was just wondering.

It's double standards I say! Poor guys they are judged so much easier XD. I mean I know I would find it weird if you did that

Haha exactly. I don't even know how girls can find guys attractive, let alone other guys. :B
I just can't look at any of the male characters and think that if I had to play as a girl I'd marry them. xD

Understandable. I guess that's why they never make RF games where you are forced to play as a female at any point. Because it's weirder for guys than it is for girls.

It seems like they have a pretty big female market though, I don't see why they haven't invested in a full fledged female protagonist yet.
I'd be okay with that, as long as there was a male couterpart :B

I guess that's why they have only half female playability. Because girls don't mind playing as a guy and then they can still get married as a female. It's less work that way

.
If they think that's all the girls care about they are wrong

. But actually I don't mind it being set up that way. Since I like playing as a guy but it's cool I can still play as a girl to marry a guy if I want.

Haha I think the only way that they'll make a stronger girl main is if the ladies stand up for it. xB
