Ubisoft did have a scan to work from, it is far more challenging to work from scratch and I do understand your perspective. It is a fine balance between deciding to go with what available and having the skill to modify it to what you want it to be. Or regardless of skill or vision, releasing a version that polarises…
Its with regards to this "Today we’d lose these hilarious characterisations. There would instead be tedious, ‘right-on’ attempts to link Nazism to modern politics and regular, none-too-subtle warnings about the dangers of political extremism." As elaborated in this article,…
I think beyond the rather sterile "she's ugly, not my StarWars lol" VS "she's just a regular woman you biggot" discourse there's definitely something to be said about what can happen when deviating from a realistic reference (regardless of it being photo ref or a scan). Human faces are *incredibly* subtle and delicate to…
I really feel that this is where they dropped the ball on this one, like people are photoshopping the actors face on the model and asking why didn't you just do this? It would be interesting to learn more about their decision making process. So far Ubisoft hasn't claimed artistic interpretation on Kay, though that is…

Recommend going through this thread, https://www.neogaf.com/threads/star-wars-outlaws-main-character-already-hit-with-criticism-due-to-ubisoft-changing-actress-apperance.1669385/ While some of the comments may come across as insulting or trolling, its a good way to understand about appeal and why this character isn't quite…
I don't feel that Ubisoft ought to take stellar blades approach to character design, unless they are capable enough of creating a game that supports it from an environment/gameplay perspective. Ubisoft has proven brand identity in properties that have established audiences. And from glassdoor reviews it becomes clear that…
