I usually go for radically different things. I like playing unconventional or underrepresented characters, using the templates and options nobody uses.

She's from Nioh 2! A good game with excellent combat, although pretty grindy and loot heavy during the endgame. It has one of the best character creators!
ooh it looks pretty fun! i might give it a go some time

I don't usually make my characters look like myself. I have a friend who does, and when I asked him about it he said it was a conscious choice to build up his self esteem.
I tried that out once for myself when I made a new Red Dead Online character, but I found him to be really boring. I see that face (or one like it) every day, so I'd rather make someone more interesting.
I'll usually make a gruff older looking man or, if you can change the skin colour to something unnatural, I'll go for a Hellboy-esque look. In Elden Ring I found a guide to make your character look like a chimpanzee, so I modified that to make him the Red Monkey (I had just finished watching Marvel's "Hit-Monkey" animated series).
I'll sometimes play as a female character, but it usually depends on the voice actor. In Mass Effect I always chose FemShep because Jennifer Hale has been one of my favourites since Metroid Prime and the old Avengers cartoon.

@WingsOfImaginationwow that character is GORGEOUS! I hardly ever play games that dont allow some level of customization, I dont like playing with pre-build characters like those games where you can only change the clothes but not the appearance and gender. I always create original characters and give them a backstory (not necessarily the one in the game), and if they can have companions or pets they do get a back story too! Here the current character I have been playing with, Astaroth, from the critically acclaimed mmorpg FFXIV:  Him and his husband:
