Weighing in on the talk of "self-inserting vs not", when playing crpgs I tend to make what is essentially an Avatar character who isn't myself but acts according to my personal feelings on matters encountered (If I get around to a second playthrough of a game will make a character who is as different as possible from the first and follow a wildly different story path/alternate choices to see more content.)
I also like playing as humans in general, unless its an rpg where you make a whole party in which case I try to use as much variety as possible in character customization across the different PCs.

So my adventurer in CoCII is a Human Warrior with the backstory choice of being a former soldier that traveled up north as dictated by the game. Is on the whole a Good Man who acts to help people with his strength and wits (and so had no hesitation in aiding Cait with her sister). He's out there facing down the likes of monsters and demons because they need to be stopped before they hurt others and will resist their attempts at beguilement with heroic stubbornness.
Since this is a porn game put some thought into the whys of all the fucking that goes on- that as well as having a physical form that is more easily malleable due to encountering the Demon popping out of her portal it also increased his entirely natural desires towards having sex with (or outright impregnating) the various attractive females he encounters to greater levels leaving him with a number of lovers in the region and various offspring where before he would have been alot more restrained, but in the end not to the point its beyond his will since have often declined sex scenes that pop up in the middle of major questlines (more dramatic and important things are happening at the time which he remains focused upon) and he's not always jumping to having sex with defeated foes (especially the obviously corrupted ones).

Its not a developed character I would submit for a pnp-rpg campaign, erp or otherwise, but it works for a single player game and his continuing actions of heroism as well as at the same time having an increasingly ridiculous harem of lovers and fuckbuddies proves to be consistent.

Well pretty much all my attempts at roleplaying thus far have been short-circuited by the game itself. Too many mandatory story events which force me to break character.

I don't self-insert, too boring imo. I set up a character (usually a rather small male, bc I think that's a more fun base to start tfs from), and kinda write my own subplots reacting to things.

They pretty much always get rammed by Kas in the tutorial (i can't help myself!) and end up with the d-cups. One of my champions freaked out and ended up chugging bloodwine until he was bigger than Brint, another got a little too into it and went from a sweet little catboy to a slobbering gnoll with dsl, a horse anus and cock and jj tits. Most end up somewhere in-between, or go back and forth as things happen. "things" being either the actual plot, or sometimes incidents like getting egged, the witch corset, "accidentally" drinking the first bimbo brew they found... the one who went minotaur was so tired of getting raped (first time playing since the game was just the foothills, whoopsie) that he turned into a total sadist.

I have yet to do a "good" character, since corruption/tf are my fetishes. (another reason why I don't self-insert:p)

although if he does let kas win and her promises of bringing electricity to the world are true, maybe someday he'll have both definitions :D

Generally when I start playing Coc, Coc II, or TiTs, I do a self insert where I'm a male human and will keep myself like that throughout the game with no major body modifications. I make decisions I'd probably make, and won't touch anything that just wouldn't be that attractive like furry herms with 1 meter long green nubbed dicks and inflated lips with beachball tits.

However, at some point I'll just not care, will fuck everything to keep lust low, try to get the best outcomes, skip a lot of scenes except for characters I like, and min-max a build. No backstory, no roleplaying, and no real fetish. Played each game several times over like this. I guess I play to see what's been changed and what's new. I'm probably not the target audience for these games, but I still enjoy playing through it every so often.

I have 4 sets of saves, one set female one set male. One pure one corrupt. Different starting Classes and races to maximize their skills and try to create a savant in their class. I don't typically insert myself when playing but rather develop a mindset for each character. Creating them how I envision their appearance is fun but can be trying when I want one set of limbs from an item and they keep giving the opposite.

Are you talking about transformative items? Two things about those, use alchemy to tune them to specific body parts and save before using them, if you don't get the TF you wanted, reload and try again.

Yeah i usually do that I just had a run of bad luck trying to get frostmander arms and spent 48 minutes reloading and trying, reloading moving and retrying, reloading fighting then trying. I got the desired "look" finally but that was the worst luck I've ever had.
