And almost every other piece of marketing was for MShep. That was to reassure all those who don't accept femshep is true shep that they weren't forgotten.

The poll could have used an option for playing both, which is what I'll do, as I did in Mass Effect.
After following and participating in a very long and interesting thread on the old BioWare site on choosing a male or female shep, in my next full playthrough of ME series I chose female to listen to Jennifer Hale's voice acting. And it was great. Up to that point, I never would have considered playing the lead role as female when it was an option.

I played the OT first through as a custom male and I'm pretty sure that's it'll do here as well. And then, if I like the game enough, I'll try out a preset Sara, partly just to see the firt name thing.

I don't think I can handle Scott Ryder's "yeah, I'm the man. Ladies love me" douche-bro walk throughout the entire game. He moves like he's trying to air out his armpits.

I plan on playing both as I did in the Shepard trilogy as I would always alternate between male and female Shepards from trilogy playthrough to trilogy playthrough. I plan on doing the same with the Ryders. Only difference is my first Shepard was male so this time around my first Ryder will be Sarah.

Sara, since I've never been able to comfortably play as a male character, unless I'm not given a choice. Also, even if it seems weird, I prefer my customized character to resemble and act similarly to me.
10 MORE FUCKING DAYS, GUYS. 10 DAYS!!!

Hopefully the character editor is on point. This will be the first time I will use the editor to change the main character....Male Shep (never played Femshep) was a decently designed character that i never felt the need to alter.....Ryder's design is ok, but he's a bit bland...

Custom Sara, all the way. Been planning out how I want her to look and everything. WAS going to rename her...but nah, first play through, custom face, keep the name.

Both but Scott first because he is a man and I'm a man so it feels more like I'm playing as myself.

Both. Going to play Default Sara first, since I don't mind her looks. But for Scott there is no way past the Character Creator. Which should not be a challange. I created a good looking Shepard in ME with no fancy Mods, how hard can it be in ME:A?

My first playthrough will be as default Sara. After that, I'll probably end up trying everything. More than once.

I'm unsure. Usually I go for males in RPGs. Sometimes it's for aesthetic reasons if the game for example has retarded female armor/animation but mostly because I roleplay males better. I guess I sneakily project more of myself to female characters which at times causes their characterization to be all over the place. The characters I have created and who I have grown most attached to have almost always been males. In Mass Effect, however, female Shepard was immediately my first choice. I was tired of your typical "space marines" and the male version presented itself as too mainstream for my tastes. However, with Andromeda... whereas femShepard clicked immediately, for some reason Sarah isn't doing it for me. Maybe it's the voice acting? I dunno. Currently I'm leaning towards Scott ( definitely gonna customize him) though it may change. Romance options might affect my choice since I like to go for "forbidden love" tropes, unconventional relationships which could make for a rich story and offer some nice tension. If the male protagonist's options are once again just human ladies / human looking aliens, then fuck it. But if Scott can go and boing a Salarian or something then I'm game

The more I think of it and the more meme gold I see from default Sara, the more convinced I am to never bother with CC.

Default Sara's facial animations aren't great - hopefully making a custom one will help out with any problems. I defo plan to play as femRyder. Always do in my first runs of Bioware games.

I never play default, unless I have no choice. I'll eventually play both MRyder and FRyder (both custom). But my first real playthrough will be as a custom Sara. I plan to play a C-Scott for the 10hr access bit for fun though.

I never use the default if there's a CC, it's too much fun making your own version. My first will be a custom Sara but I might play a custom Scott after that because I really like Scott's voice unlike male!Shepard.
