When my employer upgraded to 360, they gave up their Elearning Brothers subscription (where we used to get our characters). While the range of characters available in 360 is handy, it's exceedingly limited (no children or teens, for example, no senior citizens, limited ethnic represenation). I'm wondering if there's any plan to expand the range of available characters in Storyline.
I’m sorry to hear that your company took a tool from you that had some amazing and diverse characters/features in it! I get how difficult it can be to continue creating a project and to portray a certain feeling or atmosphere when some of the tools or features are taken away from you. That being said, I’m not sure how much your company was paying for eLearning Brothers, but I have found https://elearningart.com/ and they are very reasonable with their pricing, which could be brought up to your company as an alternative. If that is not an option, there are also threads where individuals are looking for the same thing. I really hope this helps you!
Yes. Additional characters, specifically younger and more diverse, are both feature requests that we are tracking. I've added this conversation to our reports so that we can share updates with you here.
