Yeah. I stopped playing for a fair bit as soon as I started working on my own avatar and realized, 'Hey, I can do this.' because after that, I realized I wanted to represent myself with something I made for myself. I had a hard time identifying with the avatar I had been using previously, especially because it's really not that uncommon a model.

First starting out, though, just jump in. Grab a character from some vidya you like or something. With time, you'll start to identify with it and people will associate it with you no matter what the avatar actually is.
