They’ve also kind of devalued them by giving the old ones for free. I got Black Flag and Unity for nothing that I haven’t gotten around to playing yet; Unity’s graphics still looks better than the recent ones, scope and world size notwithstanding.
Yeah they put a black samurai in it. Of course the screeching ggamers were screeching about “historical accuracy “…… and then of course there was a story about a black samurai …. So they had to shut up
On the contrary. The word on the conservative circles is how awful the game is and how it doesn’t compare.
I’m serious. They’re not shutting up about it (and if you think that’s happening you’re in a bubble). The actual discussion point is that this game is a failure.
To be fair, yasuke never was a samurai. He was a bodyguard of a jesuit monk (I think?) and was sold to obu nobunaga because he thought he looked “funny”. He was a trusted retainer under nobunaga, but never owned land or was a samurai.
To be fair to be fair, those people never complained about the historical accuracy with Pope sword fights, or Leonardo Divinci having technology that wouldn’t be produced until the 1800s, and I’m sure many more historical inaccuracies involving white folks.
Is kinda suss though that Ubisoft couldn’t do more black characters when in the Americas though, but can totally do it when it’s in Asia. 🙆🏾♂️
I don’t know about other people in his exact position. I do know, however, that in historical records, he was referred to as “suke” which means retainer, not “bushi”.
I thought this was a crippling failure because it was woke or something?
I’d expect it to be a failure because it’s a 70$ ubishit paint-by-numbers, but I’ll find out in two years when it’s 15$
Yeah, I was utterly shocked at the price. £70 to download or £56 on disk.
The last Assassins Creed I played was Odyssey and that was well after release so I paid a far more reasonable £30 or so.

That goes a long way to explain the YouTube commentariat !

Other people in his exact position were called samurai back then, at least that’s what I’ve read around
