discussion Do you play as yourself or role-play as someone else?

I always choose the same name but it has nothing to do with my real name. And no, I don't roleplay as myself, but I play according to my kinks (mostly domination and corruption). Definitely not how I act in real life

I mostly act as a "viewer" in all games I play, be it SFW or NSFW. Like someone watching someone's story unravel before my eyes, like I'd do when watching a movie or anime.

I don't see the point of an RPG if you play as yourself. Kind of defeats the purpose.

Always a roleplay, its supposed to all be make believe anyways for a story.

I normally play a version of myself just with cosmetic changes. I'm just bad at role playing especially when there's a logically correct choice
