As much as I dislike Ubisoft I like what that guy wrote.
"We do not condone illegal whaling, just as we don't condone a pirate lifestyle of poor hygiene, plundering, hijacking ships and over-the-legal-limit drunken debauchery."
This from PETA tells me they never played a game in their life: "PETA's recommendation is for Ubisoft to simply remove whaling from the game, a decision it claims wouldn't harm the experience."
Yes, yes it would, its like taking the hunting out of Far Cry 3, it takes one more thing you could be doing out of the game, lessening the overall value.

And the fact that the series is about assassins doesn't bother them?
Seriously PETA, get some priorities.

I have a sugestion for PETA. They like animals right. If they like animals then they can come in my country and take care of the dogs problem, because it's not funny to be bitten by a hungry dog that has no owner. So if they like animals so much they can happy take all the dogs without owners and feed them all, else sooner or later someone will start killing those dogs. And if PETA has something to say about someone that after was bitten by a dog without an owner start to kill all the dogs without owners he/she see then maybe PETA should pay the treatment of all the people that are and will be bitten by dogs without owners and not to mention to find a way not to feel any kind of pain when a dog bites u.
If PETA say dogs without an owner are not her problem then it's clear it has no right to say anything if you decided to kill the dogs without an owner because PETA admits dogs without an owner are not PETA's problem.
So let's not make games where u supposed to kill animals because PETA say no.
Let's not make games where u kill humans because for sure a human rights organization will say no. Let's make this even worst humans must not die in game because the same human rights organizations will say no.
After that an alien rights organization will popup and will say no when someone want to make a game where u supposed to kill something that looks like an alien.
In those conditions I doubt we will have many games to play.
And the one from Ubisoft that wrote the answer was right. PETA don't really play games. Can I give them a dota 2 gift? I bet they will have a problem when you kill a courier or when u kill someone transformed into a frog. And probably it will be a bad idea if Icefrog decide to answer them (peta don't like frogs in ice). XD

just read this article.
Some people should really calm down about stuff like that. I'm not getting on a plane to a ocean, rent a boat and a harpoon/cannon/saber/pirate hat and kill everything that moves just because I saw some polygon character do that.
But I guess some people just like drama...
I like the response from ubisoft though. ;)
