isnt Mariposa mexican?
Latina but Latina isn't a race :P

I do understand the call for diversity in video games though. I get bored of most solo protagonists being 30-something straight white men with generic appearance. Enough black and/or gay and/or women play video games for there to be a market for other types of protagonist.

We're something like 6 protagonists into Assassin's Creed now and we've had one half Native and one kind of Arab protagonist, and all men. The only black and female lead in the series so far wasn't available on all platforms so not counting her.

I'm not on about the lack of diversity it's more so when people make these ridiculous reaches like damn son.

You're forgetting Evie from the new AC game too Nick, first time a female is one of the main assassins on a console game (not portable like Aveline or a crappy spin off game like Shao Jun)

Back from the expo. We sold really well for the expected lower sales Sunday. And we sold loads of Ateliier Rorona soundtracks. We started the expo with a load of stock and even had no stock left with many items.

And me and my ever-growing KT stash.

Yeah she seems cool, but then to me it seems like they just tacked her on as main guy's sidekick. I don't get why it would kill them to just go all-out with a solo female lead just for once. The series is popular enough that guys would still play it

also Adewale was a black dude significant in Black Flag and playable in Freedom Cry DLC, which was also sold as a stand alone thing.

Apparently she plays an equally significant role. There are missions in the game where you are locked into playing as one or the other.

I would have bought Unity had Elise been the main character

Especially after she was shown to be in the game like a day after Ubisoft gave their "female characters are too hard to animate" BS

Still better than all 4 mayo dudes we had for the multiplayer

Like they had about 5 games with MP that had female characters using the same animations as men so why didn't they just do that for making a female character??

I couldn't breathe when I heard that excuse :lol:

Ubisoft can make a breathtaking GIANT ocean map with dynamic storms for Black Flag, along with these giant city maps game after game... but they can't make a woman-shaped avatar.

And not like they didn't do it before either, the online modes have had playable female models since Brotherhood

all four of those dudes are the same dude, though so shes only better than one dude, Arno. Which isn't a great feat.

So it's a gift then? :smugracia:

lmao ikr Nick. Although Sunset Overdrive getting a cheap shot in at Assassin's Creed was worth it

Shows how much attention I paid to Unity I thought they were all different guys but one was like mr mustache the other was mr stubble etc

At least Arno was ******* gorgeous

Also was anyone else really frustrated that they decided to use stereotypical British accents instead of French ones? No thanks, I don't want to hear my accent when we're supposed to be in 18th century Paris. They tried to pass that off as "artistic liberty" or some dem **** like that when they were questioned on it.

In short, the team working on Unity were bloody stupid.

That was just flair for the trailer. In the game you're literally just inviting other players to roam around in the open world with you and do missions that are locked for multiplayer.

So you're jut taking your Arno into someone else's game to play with their Arno.

Well, it is what it is. My point was no one in that game was that likable.

Serious question though: Can I play with your Arno? :hey:

"The development team had intended for players to choose the co-op characters' gender, but it was abandoned due to time constraints. "It's double the animations, it's double the voices, all that stuff and double the visual assets", Amancio explained."

Elise was literally RIGHT THERE the whole time

Unity sounded like one big mess but I thought the main guy for Rogue was kinda cute, but nobody rly talked about that one

I mean I see what they're saying. Just the way they said it was stupid.

They could've done it. They just didn't want to. Which is shitty, but that's fine. They can do what they want. But they made it sound like it was an impossible feat which was stupid.
