Ubisoft Sexual Misconduct Culture Sabotages Own Games From Diverse Leads
Remember that really messed-up Ubisoft story where its executives resigned due to reports of sexual harassment, bullying, misogyny, and overall toxic work culture that feels “mafia-like”? Well it actually affected how the Assassin’s Creed games were initially supposed to be, at least on how they were originally going to focus on female representation.
See, AC characters like Evie Frye, Aya, and Alexios were supposed to have prominent roles in their respective AC games. According to a Bloomberg article by Jason Schreier, the company’s “machismo” culture changed all that for the worst. Examples include:
The latter point is incredibly apparent since Kassandra felt way more integral and naturally written into the story than Alexios. Seeing as Hascoët was Ubisoft’s Chief Creation Officer and was the creative force of the company, he was basically one of the more powerful employees in the company just behind CEO Yves Guillemot.
While it’s commendable in a way that the issue is still being sorted out, it still sucks that this has been happening for far too long and that it also inherently affected the AC games we’ve played since 2015 onwards. God forbid that this would have gone on for too long if this news wasn’t made public.
