MAFIA 4 PROTAGONIST SERIES
You may play the leader of the Saints Row gang as either a male or female character, though in terms of the background story of the game, this character was originally a male, and Saints Row 2 is quite explicit about this idea.Īs the Saints Row series - unlike the GTA series - maintains a direct continuity of characters and plotlines from game to game, the second game justifies the potential gender swap of its main character (who could only be male in the first game) through a plot device. Indeed, the one effort that I can think of to do so, in the Saints Row series, is to me a clear failure of imagination and might speak a bit to the problem of creating a female anti-hero within this particular genre construct.īoth Saints Row 2 and Saints Row: The Third leave the gender of those games’ protagonists up to the player. However, I am also a little skeptical that a reasonably well defined female protagonist might be written for an open world crime game.

Some of these folks are still holding out hope that one of these speculative protagonists might be a woman.

Just before the trailer was released, rumors swirled around the internet that this iteration of GTA might feature a female protagonist, something that no GTA up to now (and really no other open world crime game, barring Saints Row - sort of - but more on that in a moment) had done.Īctually the rumors have not abated in some circles that a playable female character may still exist in the forthcoming game, as a number of folks have suggested that the absence of the male protagonist in some scenes in the trailer might suggest that this GTA might also feature the story of multiple protagonists. One bit of disappointment that some fans expressed in seeing the video for the first time was the implication that the game will feature a standard male lead in this upcoming GTA.
