    Sex Change

    Concept »

    This applies to games where characters physically change from one sex to another. This ranges from a character being able to change sex as part of the gameplay (perhaps specifically of the opponents) to being limited to the story or character customisation between the sexes being permitted after starting a campaign.

    The fact that there is a page for this scares me.

    Wow this is pretty scary. Its also kind of scary how many video games have been added that people know. Shouldn't people be trying to forget that the gender of a character just changed in the game they just played? Yet it must be burned in their minds so much that they put the game out there on a list for all to know.The funny thing is, some of these games are really good. What we need to do is look beyond the gender change of characters and look into the game play!

    Oh, come on. You know the only reason anybody bothered with this concept was to get points. Nobody (I hope) gives a shit about gender changing in games.

    You aren't in second place for wiki edits on the page. That would be even more frightening.

    I don't remember gender change in Metroid.  Samus was always a girl :P

    Hm...  right.  Nintendo originally referred to her as a "him".  She didn't change, but her perception had.  Not her fault, really. :)

    And...  it took some pondering, but Jade Empire has it in the play scene.  Lady what's-her-name.

    Easy now, everyone :)  I didn't do it just for points (although the points help), but at least it got people talking.

    You can only link concepts to games and persons not to members on the board... which means we need a IC9 person page, but since it isnt credited in a game we cant, such a shame

    edit: who is working on the content of this page? the part about faris seems somewhat the other way around... when they thought he was a she the male characters were hot for faris????

    I've only played the game for a few hours and don't remember much, but the information might be accurate. FFV is a very lighthearted game, and it would be funny to see males being attracted to Faris because she looks feminine or whatever even though they think she's a he.

    I guess someone with knowledge of the game should clear this up.

    >Wow this is pretty scary
    >This should scare us all
    >This is a frighten topic, I can't defend.

    Scary how?  Scary like "OMG! people want to change gender!" or "There are weirdos that are into this?"

    >Shouldn't people be trying to forget that the gender of a character just changed in the game they just played? Yet it must be burned in > their minds so much that they put the game out there on a list for all to know.

    Is it that traumatic? Some people find it interesting, some identify with it. As long as children aren't being shown the graphic details (when they're not too busy playing the latest GTA), who cares?

    >What we need to do is look beyond the gender change of characters and look into the game play!

    You make it sound like the only things people should be worrying about here are things like "swords" "hit points". I think it's good that games have evolved where gender issues come in (and most of the ones listed are light hearted)

    [Magusmaleficus]
    >Oh, come on. You know the only reason anybody bothered with this concept was to get points. Nobody (I hope) gives a shit about >gender changing in games

    Well there are lot more easy ways to get points (see: 2D, Death, game over). Our library has a whole special collection on transgenderism, (and the fact that someone made it). Somebody wants to know

    [Virago]
    >Is this Italy/Canadian9's page?

    No, that falls under the "Misleading horny guys who think this is E-Harmony" concept.

    But I wanna be under cats, maybe that can be a 10K prize, you can give yourself concepts.

    If I ever get time, I was going to work on this page.

    I actually imported Ranma 1/2 manga. It's a good read, too bad I can't exactly recommend it here because I usually refer people to it and say "don't read the summary" in an attempt to somewhat surprise them. There's no surprise if you know what happens. :P

    Are you talking about the Poo Poo List, an actual Comic Vine character that quotes Fan Boys on the forums?
    http://www.comicvine.com/myvine/poo_poo_list/   We need someone like that, except maybe call that user Videopoo or something
