The first question in this Ubisoft customer survey is “What is your gender” with “Male” and “Female” as permitted responses; if you choose “Female,” you’re dumped into a screen that informs you that “your profile doesn’t suit the survey.”
Games companies have got a lot of stick over the years for their failure to understand, cater to, and appreciate their masses of female customers, but it’s a rare thing for a company’s commercial blind-spots to be so vividly illustrated in two screens.
Ubisoft replies on Twitter “there was an error with the setup of the survey, it is now resolved & available to everyone. Apologies for any confusion.”
Ubisoft sent a game development survey to my wife that was basically "You're female? Fuck off." pic.twitter.com/cAdBcwcAKz
