How did Bethesda make a female assassin though? Can they give Ubisoft some tips on this apparently difficult process

no but this could actually be good for the future of women characters in Ubisoft games because Bethesda will undoubtedly get a lot of praise from various communities, both gaming and non-gaming, for having their main character be a female assassin. As a result, more attention will be drawn to the fact that Ubisoft has failed to release a major multi-platform game with a female assassin in the lead despite the franchise being older and more popular, inevitably leading to Ubisoft getting criticized and reprimanded. It is entirely possible (and in my opinion very likely) that Ubisoft will try to outdo Bethesda and prove themselves to the gaming community by releasing a major game across various platforms with the main character being a female assassin in the future to try and stop these criticisms.

tl;dr - in response to Bethesda’s female assassin, the chances of Ubisoft having a lead female assassin in the future has gone up considerably.
