Ubisoft's right, it doesn't matter what mode you're playing, you'll always be playing as Arno. This isn't like an Assassin's Creed MMO, you're not fully making your own character. AC is all story driven so it's easier to play as one, set, person the entire game. That person just happens to be a twenty-one year old white male.
