    Male Character Voice Acting

    Since the characters will be voiced and more inclusive to the narrative, it raises a question, will this have 2 separate dialogues, characteristics, style for both Male and Female version. Because they took the lazy way for AC Valhalla and almost all their dialogue options and VA were either neutral or "girly" if have to put it bluntly. Im hoping the guy will talk like a guy this time.

    I agree, Im happy both genders get a character they can identify with more, but male and female characters should be written differently, it just feels a little bit weird to play a male character and know that the female one would talk the exact same way and vice versa. Look at Jason from FC3 for example, no one would ever think hes female as he is clearly male in the way hes written. In AC Odyssey and Valhalla, both genders are completely interchangeable most of the time, but often all of the sudden it feels like that dialogue has been written for a specific gender again, making all player characters feel really weird and most importantly inconsistent in who they are, but I guess this also comes from having too many writers for the same game/character

    Odyssey never bothered me so much, not sure if their lines were different or the way he spoke. I guess Ill give all the credits to Alexios's VA, playing as him never felt abrupt. But Valhalla annoyed me so much i had to refund. On top of the gender switcharoo that was so messed up, the kid version was definitely a girl, and all his lines were so girly i just couldnt tolerate it. They mightve just gone with a proper female character if they wanted it so badly instead of messing up like this. That is why good rpgs either have one well written character or no VA at all for all the character customizations to work.

    Im hoping its not the same case with this game.
