I’m just curious if most people do this.
- I make them look like me
- I don’t

Almost never. Some exceptions. Usually I try to make, well, characters.

Nah, I usually don’t. Unless it’s a game where I’m really trying to put someone like me personally into the world, I create a character that I think would fit into the world of the game.
No I make my characters look drastically different
even my “self inserts” look different from me IRL
dude i’m ugly as balls fuck no i won’t do the same mistake that god did when he created me
i don’t hate my characters why would i forsake them with the same ugly look that i have

when i was a kid i used to but now i dont, the reason i play video games is to take a break from reality so i always just make my characters look cool
i do just bc i like representing myself, tho small asian girl with black hair and eyes ain’t what i call a novel concept. but this is why i enjoy customization beyond strict humanism, since i can do this through features and stylizations i like. for example, in the Destiny franchise there is a race known as an Exo, which is a human in a machine body. It’s cool to express myself through my tastes.
having multiple files in a game also allows me to just explore other avenues too
tl;dr
yes, but i am a generic-looking person to begin with and also express my tastes in doing so.

I would mostly make characters in games usually based around my own characters. Hence why I made pretty much my full team my OCs when I played miitopia. The only one who wasn’t an OC was the autism creature / TBH because I didn’t have enough characters at the time so I needed filler.
I am really the only reference I have to build a character
I don’t use weird hair colors because they just looked artificial and dyed. I never understood why everyone in anime has plain ass hair colors like black and brown and the protagonist has like neon red in the middle of a big crowd.
why would i self insert as myself when i can self insert as someone who actually gets bitches. Creating a character with unspoken rizz is like half of the game
I mean I probably would have long ago, but now nahhh

i combine my own looks with my in game avatar, but its never exactly the same as me. for example, my wom character always has a puffer jacket because i wear one all the time and its secondary hairstyle is similar to my own.
the only time i’ve made a character that looked distinctly like me was when i made archie, my shadow file
I based the file that looks slightly like myself off an edgelord
Besides that, i’ve attributed some traits from myself to my other characters
like my warlock having ADHD and a tendency to pace around as well as being quiet, or making my magma file energetic as i am sometimes
up until like smash for 3ds, i tried to make myself in games.
then i started using my plushy (dont ask) as a main character cuz technically it was kind of an oc since years and its funnier than a random self insert
and now i use my roblox mushroom avatar cuz idk, hes kinda cute and surprisingly easy to make in most games while still looking distinct
i am going to rip apart your orgins with my nike airs and yee yee as haircut with my 6 pack
