cool but boys might be dissapointed and/or confused that they have a girl skin. girls never cared about steve because they assume since its a game for boys just deal with it, its pretty much genderless anyways.
That's true, but the easiest way to handle it would be to give a choice at the beginning of the game to "chose" which avatar that you want to use - "Steve" or "Alex" (male/female) if they are actually gendered characters. with this particular game, I've not really cared that my character was "male" but it would be nice to have a choice if I could. I'm not one that "has" to play a female character just because I *am* female, but if I have that option, then that is what I prefer. I also don't go out of my way to search out "girly" games or things like that - (yes, I have a shelf of trophies that I won in martial arts a while back before my health got where I couldn't compete any more). I also knit & crochet to ;).
I was one of the randomly picked to have this new skin. I like it alot even though I am indeed not female. But it keeps me different from all my friends who are the regular old Steve.
Wait, I thought it was generally agreed upon that steve was neither gender...
I thought it was - by me too - as for having thinner arms and a ponytail.. sounds like my average MC-playing neighbor, right-over... there. *Looks at him*
*Has thick arms and rarely wears a ponytail* Yeah, I'm a guy too.
or at least Creepers Maybe they could be another color of camo., like tan - or even, dare I say it - Kaleidoscopic Rainbow Creepers (with some kind of special Explosive change.. yeah... make 'em all Charged Creerps, too?)??
They could look like static on an old-fashioned color TV.

What this means is that the player model itself is genderless so that skin artists can have a wide array of options when creating male or female characters. Steve himself is a specific skin that is clearly male. Not sure why everyone is assuming Steve is genderless when clearly Notch was implying that the player model was genderless probably because he had custom skins in mind.
I dunno, I haven't read that interview in sometime.
Does anyone know if this Alex skin is available for download? Because I am only of the 50% of players to have their arms shrink and my skins just do not translate well into it besides some of the female ones which I usually play as.
Geno: Blahblahblah, random sentence.
Firebrand is this color.
Shovel Knight is this color.
Memnon is this color
Cinder is this color.
Glacius is this color.
Jago is this color.
The Batter (or just Batter) is this color
Heatshade is this col- I CHOOSE MY OWN COLORS, BABY!!!
Heatshade, please.
...Fine.
Anyway...
I am this color.

Not sure it fits my current skin.

That would be... interesting.

Also, did anybody else notice the one in the green shirt from the Minecon illustration looks a lot like Alex?
