Just played this again recently and wanted to mention a couple things. Originally I played (and replayed) as a straight female, and romanced Dara and Azad. This time I decided to play as a masculine male MC.

First, is there any chance we could get the option before the game to choose the LI's gender? I say this because I'm playing a straight male who's interested in Rozerin and Xelara, but want to keep Dara and Azad as male (and not romance them). Yet when I choose to play as a straight male they automatically become female, and the only way I can get them gendered the way I'd prefer is to choose my MC as liking both genders (which isn't true).

Second, when Xelara captures the MC for the first time, she refers to my (as I envision, handsome) male MC as 'a beauty'. Is there any chance of coming up with a different term for male MC's like 'handsome' instead of 'beauty', or even give the reader a chance to dictate if their MC is more handsome or beautiful in the MC's own opinion?

No, and no.

Additional note on your issue with your "masculine male" MC being called a beauty: Those are your personal hangups about how masculinity should be perceived, according to you. It does not reflect the characters' thoughts about masculinity, including the MC.

To the MC and other characters, being called and calling someone a 'beauty' or 'beautiful' is a perfectly gender-neutral compliment. To me as well, by the way, and "masculine men" I know also would be very flattered to be called beautiful. I'm not going to adjust to individual readers' tastes on what is an incredibly minor detail🤷🏽‍♀️
