E3 - Thoughts?

[Revans Exile]

E3 is crap imo. It used to be good, but I only ever pay attention to is the list of games coming out and Gamestop's annual trade in credit bonus towards E3 games.

Got a boat load of money on my trades last Friday because of that.

Yeah, they dropped the ball with their excuses--literally, just excuses--for not including playable female characters in Unity.

This is what I heard.

Arno is the ONLY playable character period.

If you do coop you will always be Arno no matter what. The people you are playing with will always be playing Arno no matter what. You will never be playing anyone but Arno.

Player A is playing Arno but Player B, C, & D they see the coop stand in Assassins.

They could have made one of the coop stand in Assassins female but you wouldn't see yourself playing that female Assassin because you are playing Arno no matter what.

I will not play coop. Last time I tried coop it was completely ruined by every other person being a whiny bitchy little kid. I just stood still for the entire time with my tv on mute, until every single one of the bitches left. If I wanted to listen to whiny bitchy little kids I would work in a day care center, have my own kids, or go anywhere those spawns of Satan congregated. Since I don't do any of that I refuse to allow them in my home even if it is only over the speaker of my tv.

Maybe I should've clarified that my frustration extends primarily to my favorite game mode: multiplayer, where they've always offered female characters since the mode was introduced. But yeah, they could have made one of the stand ins female, especially since you're stuck with Arno no matter what.

I don't really care about what they do in campaign mode.I've been playing male assassins single player since Altair and I've been happy with that. Single player mode isn't my problem.

However, Ubisoft's excuses anger me to no end. "We can't animate women in time--" Between 9 studios? Clearly, that's 9 studios that need a whole new team of animators if adding boobs to a model is too difficult. It's bull and I'm not going to support a company that doesn't care to recognize that very much of their fanbase has been women.

Really, the games have been going down hill for me since Revelations. And if it wasn't this, I'm sure something else would discourage me from playing AC anyway. I really used to like the story but lately, it's just been...weird and not too great.

I couldn't give two shits what they do with multiplayer. That shit was imo the worst thing that happened to the gaming industry. I do not support it and never will. I do not play that shit and never will.
