Square Enix was the only publisher that didnt want us to change a single thing about the game, studio co-founder Jean-Maxime Moris said in the video. We had other publishers telling us, make it a male lead character. And Square Enix didnt even question that once. Male-only hero games sold 25 percent better than those with an optional female hero, and 75 percent better than whose with a female-only hero, according to the private consulting group EEDAR. Those numbers may have changed in the past two years. This reminder of publisher resistance is but another example of a lingering no-ladies element in modern game development. Ubisoft recently chose to block female character options in Assassins Creed: Unitys multiplayer modes, while Epic Games has talked openly over the years about the development efforts they said were necessary to add leading female characters to its Gears of War series.
