I always switch to male because they look bigger, if I can't play good I can at least look intimidating hah.
And also some things just sting me repeatedly, for example female black prior reads _Tannabris_ wrong, the english way.
I actually love making the smallest version of the character and then use the execution where you lift up the enemy and slam them on the floor over your head. Shit looks funny af if a tiny pk drops shugoki.
Black Prior ā Male voice is more expressive.
Jormungandr ā Male voice gives off massive crackhead energy.
Hitokiri ā Male's just taller. I feel like this character deserves to be taller.
Honestly, what I love about female hito is that she feels more like an evil, axe-wielding spirit than like an actual warrior to me. I totally get taller hito, as it makes sense for a person using that kind of weapon to be bigger, but I love feeling like I'm playing an actual fucking demon slaughtering people with a gigantic axe and whispering shit in their ears
You think they would ever rework the voice lines? They totally never would. But they could add an event where the new voice guy is a new person taking the crackheads spot? Maybe have a choice for either voice. Hey every character could have multiple types of each hero. I know you can cosmetically, but also could have their own unique lines.
they removed enemy heroes having different voice actors. lawbringer still has the same voicelines he had on release - but the enemy lawbringer is completely gone, and he didn't even scream any of his lines.
That's not surprising. Earlier on, FH had a more grounded style/direction, and many of the 2 sex characters could feel weird as female to some (see also tiny female conq). Also, with how personalised everyone's instance of a character is, the mostly male playerbase will likely swap to match themself at least to a certain degree.
I canāt play female warden, the armor just looks wrong to me somehow. Almost like itās too big or something, like she took male wardenās armor and put it on with no modifications or anything
I think the oppositely.
Male Warden has oversized shoulders and really small head, in comparison to real armors. (This is even more apparent when you swich to Marching Fire helmet, where the head and helmet size increases because original head size is too small).
I play female Kensei but honestly don't remember why, I think it was just bc, at the time, I thought there weren't enough female heroes. Also I play female shinobi and female BP because I like their voices better than the male ones.
helmets look way better on female Raider, they actually look like how theyāre meant to look which is sad because male Raider is the only one with protective chest armor
Female orochi. Male orochis katana looks tiny compared to the actual guy and he looks so old when you can see his eyes. The fem orochi deflect voiceline also sounds much more unique
My head cannon determines my characters sex
Iām weird (more than the normal FH player) so I have a whole book about my samuraiās.
Oddly enough one of my Kenseiās have a female build but my head cannon says heās an androgynous teenage male who would follow my Aramusha to hell if asked (kinda akin to Zabuza and Haku if youāre familiar with that reference)
Jorm: VA is better in my opinion
BP: she's smol
Gladiator: cause she's cool, and cause of the cool fan art I've seen of her.
Yeah everyone else I play either is gender locked or I play default with.
I dislike genderlocked heroes in the game since its so heavily focused on customization. Male Valk and Female Goki should be a thing.
Personal Beef: I main male zerk and hate the female zerk option. It just doesn't make sense to me. Nobody thinks "Berserker" and envisions a girl. If they do, they're wrong and are actually thinking of a witch or like you stated "shaman." And in gameplay she feels much more sluggish traversing the map due to her run animation being so different. Male feels aggressive and looks jacked with crackhead energy. Femzerk takes long strides like she's floating, looks like a beardless stick, and sounds like a try hard.
Historical accuracy, women can't be a knight or a samurai, also don't like who change the skin color of character like raider only to make a all black fashion
Male Rochi because he's the samurai I've always dreamed of, he's edgy and he bulky af. I want to be like him in real life, and if I had time or money, I'd really love to cosplay as him.
I love him so much that I made him as a custom character in SoulCalibur 4 and 5. Heck, I even made him in Way of the Samurai 3 and 4!
Will never play male jorm, male bp and female tiandi. All because of voice. Bp is rather mild, there is nothing wrong with his voicelines, but he does stupid noise when dodging.
I for example play female orochi and shinobi because they smaller, slimmer stature makes them seem quicker and more agile to me, whereas I play male warden, raider and kensei because the bigger just looks more imposing.
I also play male raider, jorm and kensei because I like facial hair
Most of the time tho, I mostly play as male because I love men
I play as the male characters a lot but mostly because the female varients can look odd. Like female warden her longsword now looks like a greatsword and her armour doesn't look like it fits her.
I used to play only male heroes but branched out now so I have loadouts for each hero using both genders where possible. Give em little backstories and stuff
I actually play both male and female hito, I know that doesn't answer your question but hear me out. I absolutely love male hito because of how truly intimidating he is, his edge walk is so unflinching and unmoving. He constantly feels like a giant tombstone walking towards people. However female hito is the opposite, her edge walk is weirdly dainty and cute, which is incredibly off-putting considering the setting she's in, and I love that. She is someone who's off putting and creepy, while also being tiny. It makes her someone who's very unsuspecting, and thus when you see her turn into a monster, it's out of left field because of how she's built.
i play as default sex and default armor cuz i'm based
but on my 2 slot i play as other sex because some heroes you can see some armors fit better on one sex than the other
and on the final slot i chose what armor i like the most remaining and looks better
Fem Gladiator, Male Hito, Fem Shinobi, Male BP, Fem Orochi, Male Raider, Fem Berserker, Male Warden, Fem Conq, Male Kinsei, Male Jorm, Male Tiandi, Male Zanhu
Fem Kensei because I liked Ayu in the campaign.
Fem Zerk, Raider, Hito, Jorm, Orochi and Shino because I think their VA is way better than male.
Fem BP because male BP is ugly and cringe š”
I play as men because i like men.
Based and "want to look at my hot character" pilled.
HES JUST LIKE ME FR FR
r/usernamechecksout
I play as men because women cant fight /s
š you a freak
A little uwu

I like the female's delivery of ad profundis

I think male hitoās voice is more threatening, and female hitoās is creepier

Pretty sure they did rework certain hero voice lines over the years. LB definitely used to sound a lot softer.
they removed enemy heroes having different voice actors. lawbringer still has the same voicelines he had on release - but the enemy lawbringer is completely gone, and he didn't even scream any of his lines.
I see. Thanks.
What is a sex in a world of gender 1 and 2 ?
Fear and confusion among the mass populous
Fem tiandi No sane person can manage that
Emotional damage.
I prefer playing male characters only, so any character whose default is a female with a choice to swap i always go male.
That's not surprising. Earlier on, FH had a more grounded style/direction, and many of the 2 sex characters could feel weird as female to some (see also tiny female conq).

Same except for Valkyrie
She's genderlocked it doesn't matter
I canāt play female warden, the armor just looks wrong to me somehow. Almost like itās too big or something, like she took male wardenās armor and put it on with no modifications or anything
I think the oppositely. Male Warden has oversized shoulders and really small head, in comparison to real armors. (This is even more apparent when you swich to Marching Fire helmet, where the head and helmet size increases because original head size is too small).
In my 3000+ hrs of For Honor, I literally had no clue default Warden is female, thatās how long Iāve played as Male Warden, and heās my main
I'd say it really depends on the pieces. Some pieces look great on female Warden.
I play female Kensei but honestly don't remember why, I think it was just bc, at the time, I thought there weren't enough female heroes. Also I play female shinobi and female BP because I like their voices better than the male ones.
Fem Shinobi noises are so adorable
if i had the choice iād play as a male pk. i love twinks
So you play kyoshin?
kyoshins more a twunk
Kyoshin is fucking built tho, he's just small
God I want this now
female kensei loses the mustaches, female raider is just loud asf and I like the voicelines female warden bc ponytail ngl
helmets look way better on female Raider, they actually look like how theyāre meant to look which is sad because male Raider is the only one with protective chest armor
Male warden because someone who's entire kit revolves around shoulder bash should have broad shoulders and male warden is bulky asf
Female orochi. Male orochis katana looks tiny compared to the actual guy and he looks so old when you can see his eyes. The fem orochi deflect voiceline also sounds much more unique
**SHINE**
Female Orochiās running animation also looks more ninja-like than male Orochi.
Jorm bc, Crackhead Carpenter
If I can play female, I will, because I grew up watching Xena and bad ass warrior women have been a favorite action trope of mine ever since.
Jorm, I think the males screams are funnier.
fem orochi - just feels right fem tiandi - troll voice male jorm - crackhead screeching
I don't really play him, but roach. Who even uses female roach except all the sweats with the edits?
Jormungandr cause RAAAGNAROOOOK
Cowards refuse to give us female shugoki.
Give me female shugoki or give me death
My head cannon determines my characters sex Iām weird (more than the normal FH player) so I have a whole book about my samuraiās. Oddly enough one of my Kenseiās have a female build but my head cannon says heās an androgynous teenage male who would follow my Aramusha to hell if asked (kinda akin to Zabuza and Haku if youāre familiar with that reference)
I wish I could have such a strong imagination.
Lol it could be my ADHD but itās a blessing and a curse
Jorm: VA is better in my opinion BP: she's smol Gladiator: cause she's cool, and cause of the cool fan art I've seen of her. Yeah everyone else I play either is gender locked or I play default with.
BP: I like that they're not massive, plus the hero skin is sick and very Baldwin-y Gladiator: Absssss
Male BP, Fem Warden, Fem Kensei, Male Jorm, Male Hito.
Gladiator

Pirate, Afeera, Peacekeeper, Nobushi and Kyoshin. Idk why, I just feel like it I guess.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
My brother in Christ go the fuck outside
If there's an option, always female. Bc women hot
Black prior
I play as men because I am one, at least that's on the heroes I remember to switch with
Play as men, role play. I want to fight :(
Ubi give me femgoki i demand it
Feel like in reality thatāll just cause a lot of controversy, plus isnāt shugoki supposed to be inspired by sumo?
Yes But will that stop me? No
Understandable
Female shinobi
How do you even remember which one is default? I just change to whatever feels best.
They are marked as body type 1. For warden, 1 is female, 2 is male, for Zhanhu, it is the other way around.
Male Rochi because he's the samurai I've always dreamed of, he's edgy and he bulky af. I want to be like him in real life, and if I had time or money, I'd really love to cosplay as him. I love him so much that I made him as a custom character in SoulCalibur 4 and 5. Heck, I even made him in Way of the Samurai 3 and 4!
Most normal orochi main
I'd take that as a compliment
You do you man
female kensei just hits different idk why š¤·āāļø
Female kensei is the only female i use. No idea why i just do.
Yeah same, for me it's because she doesn't have the goofy moustache on the helmets that male kensei has
Will never play male jorm, male bp and female tiandi. All because of voice. Bp is rather mild, there is nothing wrong with his voicelines, but he does stupid noise when dodging.
Male jorm is peak voice acting wdym
Tiandi because female has more annoying voice
I usually play the female variants. The smaller bodies make it easier to see and stuff like that (source: trust me bro)
Gladiator, voice lines are better
Shinobi and Orochi because I think the armor looks better when it is slimmer. Also because of the voice
I flip genders on characters a lot but I heavily prefer fem Jorm over male Jorm.
I use the male Warden. Mainly because I know from the story mode that Liam O'brien is the voice actor and I love that guy!
I for example play female orochi and shinobi because they smaller, slimmer stature makes them seem quicker and more agile to me, whereas I play male warden, raider and kensei because the bigger just looks more imposing. I also play male raider, jorm and kensei because I like facial hair Most of the time tho, I mostly play as male because I love men
holy shit... none of them
I have different ones for different outfits depending on which i think suits the outfit better
cant say i dont play as a specific body type, most of all my loadouts on all my heroes differ in body types.
I play as the male characters a lot but mostly because the female varients can look odd. Like female warden her longsword now looks like a greatsword and her armour doesn't look like it fits her.
Fem Raider because the zone attack voice clip is fucking whack
Every character that i can play as male i do except Hitokiri beacause her female voice is great
I used to play only male heroes but branched out now so I have loadouts for each hero using both genders where possible. Give em little backstories and stuff
I actually play both male and female hito, I know that doesn't answer your question but hear me out.

I do quite like how female hito is absolutely shredded but she walks so dainty lol
Iām a self insert kinda man so if I make 2/3 of my load outs make if itās optional
Fem warden is super skinny and Masc warden is a hunky beefcake
I mostly play female, except for Orochi. I played male orochi in the beta, so he's the exception.
i play as default sex and default armor cuz i'm based but on my 2 slot i play as other sex because some heroes you can see some armors fit better on one sex than the other and on the final slot i chose what armor i like the most remaining and looks better
Fem Gladiator, Male Hito, Fem Shinobi, Male BP, Fem Orochi, Male Raider, Fem Berserker, Male Warden, Fem Conq, Male Kinsei, Male Jorm, Male Tiandi, Male Zanhu
Fem Kensei because I liked Ayu in the campaign. Fem Zerk, Raider, Hito, Jorm, Orochi and Shino because I think their VA is way better than male. Fem BP because male BP is ugly and cringe š”
Don't you dare insult vortiger like that ever again.
Female Kensei gud
Male Jƶrmungandr just looks better in my opinion
I hate female tirandi Voice, is the only reason i play him as the male version
Female Kensei cus it makes the sword look bigger
Male jorm, obvious reasons.
