But of course devs don't wanna do realistic female assassin shit. Not anymore.
Which is funny, I remember playing the first female Assassins Creed game, that spin off of 3. It was interesting the way she could get outfits and hide and do actual sneaky assassinations Hitman style, blending in with the help, donning a high society dress and mingling with the bourgeois, all kinds of stuff.
And she had silent killing tools at her disposal, with poison darts and strangulation devices and such.
It was still a little ridiculous, because people would notice some black broad trying to play high society in pre civil rights era USA, but it was a lot less "macho ma'am tranny savage" and a lot more real assassination type stuff
