Back at it again with the sexism remarks i see. Surely you can see past a different pitch in voice and different physical trait that preforms the same moves, same combos etc. They do have male only characters y'know? Oh and what happened to your old post?Originally Posted by hypomaniac0 Go to original post
Gender locking is the least of this games problems, if you've bothered to look at the more technical issues that is. This topic will probably be one of the last things UBI looks into, especially if you go about it with the way you have. Cussing someone out the very first few sentences will definitely get your point across my man.
In the mean time, enjoy playing a female character my dude.

I can't believe I'm forced to play a female Valkyrie (even though the existed and protected homesteads and Jarls) why is *she* called a Shield-Maiden!? Why can't I be a Shield-MANden! Why can't I play as a male Nobushi (even though they were designed after Onna-bugeisha, female samurai, who existed) even though the lore in their class video states that they defend villages and townsfolk while the men went off to fight.
This isn't a role-playing game. It's a fantasy fighting game. You're applying our real world history to a fictional universe. Who's to say that female knights, vikings, and samurai aren't a norm?

It's will never be the norm because the female to male warriors percentage is like 5% to 95% and I'm being generous here. Well to be fair I can't give a precise persantage because you can't get exact numbers, but you get the idea. Since it's a game in a fictional world I don't see why they can't give the option for both genders to all characters.Originally Posted by Stubbamoto Go to original post

actually let me stop you there, nobushi wasn't just a female warrior her weapon where also used by men, such examples exist in monks, and male soldiers who fought in the Japanese armies and they were also Japanese guards.Originally Posted by Stubbamoto Go to original post
also Valkyries are each of Odin's twelve handmaidens who conducted the slain warriors of their choice from the battlefield to Valhalla. Basically they were female spirits it was very rare to see a female on the battlefield very very very rare. Even today were women have freedoms it's still rare to see a female in the front lines of battle fields. Just thought id point that out respectfully.
Why is it fragile, because people would like the option to have both genders be available? Instead of having a gender locked character. I wouldn't mind playing as both either, not every guy want's to play as a girl and not ever girl wants to play as a guy and some will play as both gotta learn to respect that.Originally Posted by Lorr-Rhedet Go to original post
