What is a furry to you?
A furry is someone who likes anthropomorphic animals. I don't just mean bipedal wolves. Animals with human emotions, speaking abilities etc. Even just enjoying the great art that comes out of the furry community can make someone a furry, as there is a clear aesthetic to a lot of it, that not everyone can enjoy(Appreciating the actual talent of the artist of course is different). They like pretending to be animals or they just really like animals. Maybe they go so far as to wear fursuits.
Do you consider yourself as a furry?
Yes. I've always loved anthropomorphic animals, from Warrior Cats to the Redwall books, Disney's Robin Hood, TLK, all that sort of stuff. I even had wolves for imaginary friends when I was little.
Do you have friends who play FeralHeart that don't consider themselves as a furry?
Yeah, for sure. A lot of people misunderstand the term anthropomorphic, thinking it means bipedal animals with thumbs. So they may think "I'm not furry, 'anthros' aren't my thing". However, anthropomorphic literally means to have human characteristics. Humanizing animals in any way for the purpose of entertainment can be considered furry. Not that it is bad!
Do you believe playing FeralHeart makes you a furry?
100% yes. You are running around pretending to be an animal with human emotions and talking ability. That's definitely furry.
Why do YOU enjoy FeralHeart?
As stated above, because I can run around pretending to be an animal with human emotions and talking ability, among other people who do the same.
