So this is my first time making a game with Quest and early on I'm hitting an roadblock. I want to start off with the player making a decision of gender based on the armor they choose for their character which is presented to them in the first page of the game and images are provided for each set.

Once the player has picked a set of armor, I would like to transition to the same page regardless of which option they pick e.g Option A and B take you to Page 2. That way it saves me from having to duplicate the next page. Is it possible or would it just be easier to duplicate the page and then move to the same page?

I think you could make pages for both choices which are the "script" type. One that sets an attribute to "male" and then sends the player to page 2, and one that sets the attribute to "female" and sends the player to page 2. Like a "page 1m" and a "page 1f" that the player never actually sees because both send them straight to page 2.
