Fuck you Ubisoft.

So, I dont normally post like actual posts on here, I just reblog things and leave lil notes for my favourite people, just some asks on occasion and some Dm's. Im mostly here for the artists/writers/people from fandom that I love.

But this bullshit from Ubisoft has pushed me over the edge, Ive already had nearly two months of overworking, no breaks, little to no recuperation time for my various disabilities and one if the things I use to relax and recover is traipsing about Ancient Greece as a butch/buff Lesbian warrior woman in as close to a proper Xena Warrior princess game Im likely to get on this generation of consoles. AND NOW!!! Ubisoft has pulled this fuckery and LIED. TO AN ENTIRE COMMUNITY OF ITS FANBASE. That softball bullshit of "Oh its for the story" is absolutely bollocks. Because the events that are transpiring in the game only need the DNA of Either sibling to run the Animus.

Future generations of protagonists from this game series do not need to be DNA tied to Kassandra in order for those games/protagonists to exist! There are literally BILLIONS of combinations of DNA sequences that could result in people having a predisposition to Assassin abilities. Is Ubisoft really trying to tell us that a person cant just be trained to be an Assassin? They have to have some kind of "special gene" in order for them to take up the hood and hidden blade?? Is that some more bullshit your trying to sell us Ubisoft because i think we've had our fill!

No, thats not how this works. We dont Need Kassandra or Alexios's Dna floating around the genetic pool in order for people to have the "special gene" its written in your own Game Lore that there are lots of people who have Precursor dna. Lots of people could pass on those traits.

What your doing is lying to an entire community of people who have been lied (and abused) to before by the games industry in saying "Oh of course its all your choice, you can do what you want, we dont want to make anyone uncomfortable."

GUESS WHAT ASSHOLE THATS EXACTLY WHAT YOU'VE DONE!!!!!!

You have tainted an entire gaming experiance by forcing a sexuality onto a group of people (men and women alike) who have been threatened, beaten, abused and raped. YOU HAVE DIRECTLY CONTRIBUTED TO THE SUFFERING OF HUMAN BEINGS.

And your excuse is "Story".

Get fucked.

I personally identify as Bisexual, however I lean more towards women because, Women are spectacular.

But I played my Kassandra as a tried and true Lesbian, any and all attempts by men were quickly shut down and I went on a tour of the Greek islands romancing every woman I could find.

Some encounters were brief and spontaneous and ridiculously hilarious (The older woman whose husband cant keep up with her sexual appetites and practically begs you to have sex with his wife) and yet others were deep meaningful relationsips borne from a shared experiance or repeated meetings and slowly building an attraction.

All of these encounters made an impact on both me and Kassandra.

And you went and spat in my face Ubisoft.

I am one of those poor suffering souls with the season pass, because I love this game, because I wanted to continue to experiance this world and story with a character I had grown to love.

And you went and ruined it.

Theres no sugar coating it. You went and threw away over 200 hours of my life and Kassandras journey on some lame, boring, trope filled mockery of a story you FORCED ME to endure.

I told that boring pile of rags pretending to be a man to leave in the first part of the DLC, I never wanted to see him again, he added nothing to the story or Kassandras personal journey so imagine HOW FUCKING PISSED I WAS TO SEE HIM AGAIN!

I dont need a man to make me a person, whole and true and happy!! I dont need a baby/child to do that either!! So FORCING THAT on someone who is more inclined towards women and also SINGLE BY CHOICE is not sticking to your original game statement is it???

You lied Ubisoft, to a community of people who trusted you with their gaming experiance, Gay men and women trusted your word that we could participate in this adventure without enduring forced heterosexual relationships that so many games force us to endure and you LIED.

You cant bullshit your way out of that single fact.

My personal headcannon for MY KASSANDRA is she lives her best gay life romancing ladies and kicking ass before finally settling down some where and one day she finds this poor abandoned little babe in the woods and against the advice of Barnabus she takes it in and raises it herself, then she takes in a local lad whose family died of illness. Then another poor unwashed lil girl. And another. She basically takes in every orphaned and abandoned child in a twenty mile radius. She teaches them to read and write, she trains them in the ways of the spartan warrior. She has her good friend Hippocrates teach them about healing and medicine, Barnabus teaches them all to swim and sail.

She goes to sleep every night in a dog pile of her CHOSEN CHILDREN and remembers Phoibe and remembers her smile and hugs her CHOSEN family close and goes to sleep with a smile.

Sometimes she still goes out adventuring with the lads, thats when Uncle Alexios watches the kids and she comes home to utter chaos.

YOU CAN PRY THAT FROM MY COLD DEAD LESBIAN WARRIOR LOVING HANDS UBISOFT!!!!
