Nice that they bring it up I guess (although I suspect it was specifically so they could once again point out that she's Jewish), but the underlying point remains : Why would the crucifix work, when her star doesn't? It's just a religious symbol and presumably works off the wielder's faith rather than the item itself based on what Dracula (if that is him) is saying. The only reason it did anything to him was because it was made from silver. If it had been gold or something else she'd have been screwed.

Two things mate, 1st, your sentence barely made any sense. And 2nd, what the heck do you have against Jewish people? You have single out her being Jewish twice now.

No need to find more monsters to slay. Not the place. And even if it were you wouldn't accomplish much by getting on someone except start a thread purge and thread lockdown.

The point he is making, which you can agree with or not, is that her being Jewish is a point that comes up just because, as if she has no character beyond it. Which of course she does, so why do it?
Sort of like the old joke about Arch Linux where people will just randomly say in conversation "I use Arch by the way." or the old question of "How do you know who's a Navy Seal? They'll tell you."
In this case it's "Hi, I'm Kitty. I'm Jewish." "Do you like Stars of David? Because I'm Jewish if you didn't know." "As a Jew... "

I don't agree with him that this is what they were doing here since not everyone follows every comic issue and it's a serial comic so I see why they do it in her case here. The dialogue gets the point across for the uninitiated and doesn't dwell on it. Also her faith was relevant to the situation.
For a game like this I expect it to come up, but since the player will have seen the previous dialogue, unlike with comic issues, I doubt they will need the constant Jewish one-liner reminders ."By Moses Null, you scared me."
Except maybe for things like calling Magneto out on his bs whenever he decides to show up. Things that make sense.

For point 2 he was just questioning if faith was the power needed or the material.

Good old comic book accurate 5' 3" Logan. I'm glad they had that even for 1 scene.
Except they might have gone a bit overkill. He looks too short.

If it took much convincing, I think Boots would have held the devs for this game hostage until they agreed to make Wolverine short. :LOL:

Well, they already made his little girl her canonical fun-sized height, might as well go for the kill and give us our proper short king canuck.

Mate I was just making fun of the guy, not trying to fix his problems.

Funnily enough if you give Null elf ears, Logan comments on it.

That's true, didn't read in the game (I'm not the ordinary cell-phone user) but found it in the code:

Logan, "Another blue elf at the Institute."
Kurt, "I know you love me :)"
...
Logan, "I hear we have a new elf at the Institute."),
Kurt, "A new Bruder!"

Because the average height for a woman is like 5'3"-5'5" while for men is like 5'8"-5'10". So I guess 5'8" is barely in the average range.

You also have to keep in mind there are racial differences when it comes to average height but when public surveys do their numbers they don't always take ethnic background in to account. As an example, average heights all across Europe have been trending downwards for years but if you look at the heights of only the native populations they have largely stayed the same or increased slightly since WW2.

For a woman of nordic descent 5'8" would be short but if you look at many non Euro south Americans that is really tall for a woman, average height of Guatemalan women is less than 5'.
Anna Marie is a classic southern girl, mostly anglo and french blood, 5'8" is an average height for a woman of her ethnic background.

Jean's height is harder to pin down because it's changed so much from writer to writer but she was 5'10" in evo and that seems to be the reference design for her in the game so it's a safe bet, she had long legs and was built like a super-model. Given that Jean is from the upper east coast and has natural red hair she is likely a mix of Anglo and Irish, which puts her at slightly above average height at 5'10. Storm was the only woman taller than her and Jean wasn't even 18 yet.

Laura is the toughest to pin down since we don't know who was used as her mother or if she even has much of a genetic admixture from someone other than Logan. Given that there hasn't been a peep of Sarah Kinney it's hard to say. Her origin is more of a mess than with Kon El.

All we know about Dr. Kinney is that she was a smartypants and that Laura took most of her fetures from her.
