out of curiosity, cane we play as woman? since the game from what little there is look promising, but I can't find anywhere the confirmation for gender choice in game. Like, there is some lines about customization for the protagonist being present, but no confirmation that we can play a woman traveler. I've been quite burned in the past with games that talked about customization, but they referred just to gameplay and stuff and no actual protagonist customization. This little particular may seem small, but is the difference for me if I can care or not about this game. No confirmation I think, but given the past games of those involved (Several BioWare veterans) and the clear intention to place this in the RPG space (companion system and all), I would be very shocked if they had locked in a male protagonist. The protagonist’s name, Jun, is also a unisex name, which might be indicative. I guess I'll keep an eye on it and wait for a confirmation. The fact that haven't yet confirmed it stink.

I'll look it up Hi Felya, I think I was misremembering the specifics, however I think I'm still correct. I actually had another thought, related to this. A lot of games recently (Bethesda for instance) have been trying to toe a line in a very PC way (I'm being descriptive, not pejorative), where you choose from body A or body B without saying male or female, so maybe they are shying away from the actual words to pre-empt that? (Personally I find it quite annoying from a UI perspective, but it's common now.)

(Personally I find it quite annoying from a UI perspective, but it's common now.) I don't know, even if this is the case, a mention of "customize your character, gender, face, body etc." doesn't look like too much. Is basically the least one could say about a character creator. In some games it isn't necessary because it's a stample of the serie (Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Monster Hunter for example) but a new serie should give slightly more precise informations. The fact that there are lots of people from the ME trilogy working there doesn't really give me much peace of mind, since the trilogy had quite a few moments were Jane Shepard was a third thought overall (let's remember she didn't even had a proper default face or was even part of any marketing untile ME3) an some frat boy club writing too. I guess I'll have to wait and see. Hopefully there will be something concete soon.

Exodus looks interesting, especially the time dilation, but flashy trailers aside, so much is still unknown about the game that it's hard for me to get hyped. And God only knows when this thing will get released: two years, five years, seven years, ten years? I'm at the point that if a game isn't coming out in the next six months, I won't bother with it. Hasbro, the parent company of Archetype the company making Exodus, is having some serious financial problems right now and seems to be undergoing a massive change in direction across all their major brands and subsidiaries. So it is possible that it may not get released at all. I mean it's been reported that Hasbro has 52 completed episodes of an animated series called Micronauts (a franchise that they have been trying to reboot for YEARS in comics and toys) and has no idea when, where, or if the series will ever get released on.

I think I can cope with more than one science fiction game in my life. I hope it happens.
