Jade Raymond?

[powerleca]

On an earlier thread, a couple of people mentioned Jade Raymond.  I hadn't heard of her before so I looked her up.  She seems pretty successful.  What are y'all's impressions of her?  I think I may have missed a bit of her history, and that there are some opinions of her stemming possibly from her involvement in Assassin's Creed?

I don't really have an opinion of her. She's an attractive young woman who managed to become producer of a triple-A title. Good for her. Given the rarity of attractive women in video games (and the juvenile nature of the audience), she became a poster-girl. The attention might have been good, until it got out of hand. A reporter for Kotaku made comments about smelling her. She became sort of a dual caricature--of the game industry finally opening to women, and of the juvenile sexism of game players. So I don't know much about her personally, except that she's talented enough to have become a senior producer at a relatively young age.
