- I wish I could have played as a female character
2Dover3D 3 years ago#1 Is there any reason you couldn't choose which gender you played as in this game? Many other open world games these days are giving female options like Assassin's Creed, Fallout and Horizon so why not this one? //imgtc.com/i/djEexoZ.gif |
bubbub01 3 years ago#2 Game wanted to be pretty realistic. Basically no female cowboys. And if you would play as one, the developers would have to make sure that like 90% of people of the NPCs would be aggressive towards you for not being a housewife. There's actually a quest in the game that somewhat addresses this. |
ShockWav3 3 years ago#3 Doesn't make sense at all given the game, the setting, and the period. "Since everybody here is deadset on not being intelligent, let me start things off."- SterlingFox |
Bear42 3 years ago#4 Because the game is going for realism and woman stayed home and cooked for there hardworking husbands during this time and didn't expect the right to vote, get paid the same and were just generally better people. Now they are awful. |
CaspuR 3 years ago#5 Wait for the online. Plus Arthur is a great character I really don't see what a female could have done differently given the role and the setting. The best option you got is someone like Sadie, even that is not that entertaining as being the lead enforcer in a gang. I'm no God...But I'm the closest thing this world has to one. |
SeekAndDestroy2 3 years ago#6 Because not every game needs a female PC. Simple as that. Arthur is essential to the plot and the game as a whole this is HIS story we are playing through. It couldn't have been told this way and have such an amazing story and believable world if the protagonist was female. |

Oh boy hope you have a decent set of fire resistant armor nearby Xbox one x: tomanychalupas:Switch:SW-2932-1537-8987 |

The_Silver_Knight 3 years ago#9 Can't imagine them recording that amount of dialogue for two characters. "I only want to feel some warmth, even from that which death would take from me." -Shinji/Kiseijuu |
Cruddy_horse 3 years ago#10 Wouldn't have made sense for a woman to be doing the things Arthur does, and just plain can't in general. Not sexist but a woman wouldn't be able to fight multiple burly men bare handed. Rockstar, unlike Ubisoft seems to actually care about historical accuracy for the most part. |
