It makes a huge difference if you can customize your character, because female characters couldn't be the firstborn son of Gwyn. I've seen a few DaS2 concept arts that portray the protagonist as a female, but I don't know of the authenticity of them and won't use them for this discussion.

Also, why do you believe that the game is connected to Velka and the Painted World?
