Why not make all the heroes accessible to both genders? | Forums

[WolfenTank]

I understand that Ubisoft wanted to make gender specific heroes, but why not make all of them accessible to both genders at this point?

Perhaps you need to rep up a hero like say 5 reps before you can access the male/female equilavent to a specific hero if you wanted to make a (limited) restriction to this option.

I'd like to give peacekeeper or valk a go, but I can't immerse myself into a hero if it isn't a male.

I know a lot of people think the same way about this

I mean SUPER tall female Lawbringer would be interesting but certain heroes like Shaolin and Valk are strictly one gender. Cuz history dictates so. Same with Shugoki. JJ is also not possible. That only leaves us certain heroes like Musha Warlord which are both possible to do I think. Nuxia maybe?

Don't really think that Ubisoft goes for historical accuracy at this point. Maybe when they started out, but now? Naaah don't think so.

For instance if they wanted to be historically acurate then the outfit of the female glad would be something that would cause a lot of uproar from the SJW's

They should be grateful they even got a Female Glad. Gender politics has no place in video games I think.

EXACTLY! Video games are for one's enjoyment. THUS an excellent reason to grant the request regarding heroes of both genders.

No. I cannot and don't want to imagine a male PK, even less so Valkirye, while a female Centurion would be sacrilege to me.

I definitely like the idea of gender-locked heroes.

That's a lot of work and effort for the devs to expend on what is frankly a terrible change.

Tell us what this is really about, OP, this is just your insidious scheme to get a female gokis in the game. Don't lie to us.

Hahaha oh god, didn't even imagine that one

I don't see why not. You can change the skin colour of your heroes and no one tries to argue about 'historical accuracy' there, which is something For Honor has been beyond throughout. It would be a good change and being able to change hair and eye colour would be nice too.

This, along with full customizable face would be nice. But this would be something definetely not fruitable financially for Ubi.

Seeing how BAD job they do with the female model for heroes that has both genders, i would say; never EVER do more double genders before they learn how to do more then just move the % scale slider on the body model for the females and do 1 or 2 head swaps across all the armor sets.

Im not saying "gib more tits and *** on the females", but you can clearly see that peacekeeper, shaman, valkyrie, nobushi and nuxia are females.
There is more or less 0 visual difference between the male and female version of all the vanguards, shinobi, gladiator, conquror, BP, sakura, zanhu and berserker.

I thought the females' proportions were off. The arms seem short and the heads appear a little too big.
