Ismael almost WAS Lucas. (-: When we were just getting started, Mortze did 4 potential faces for Lucas. We quickly cut it down to 2 and then spent a while discussing which we should go with. The two were effectively Ismael and Lucas. There were pros and cons. I thought carefully about the negative reaction to Life with Keeley. Would the same feelings that made people not like playing a female make them not like playing a black man? (Major kudos to Super for making a game where you play a black female! viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3948)
In the end, though, I looked at the two of them and said, "Um, this is the one I'd like to spend my time staring at." I find Ismael to be very attractive, and could easily have played a game about him. But have you seen Lucas? OMFG.
(And, by the way, one of my favorite players told me that his girlfriend spent the game ogling Lucas. So, victory!)
