     I almost had the same experience, but I chickened out, afraid that someone else (nebulous, extremely unlikely) would find out that I'd picked "girl".

     I didn't play as a girl until mass effect 2 came out, eight years later.

     If I hadn't chickened out, I wonder if I'd have cracked my egg sooner than last May, just before my 31st birthday,
