‘Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ Leaks Confirm Feudal Japan-Set Title To Center On Black Protagonists (archive)

 

[Mr.Miyagi]

Oh, so the ninja is black, too? Wonderful. I was worried we might have a AAA video game release without a black female protagonist!
Looks like they updated the story in the link, so disregard this.

Who the fuck is the target audience for this shit ?

It doesn’t seem anyone has said it, so I’ll be the first.

WE WUZ SAMURAI N’ SHIEEEET

 

[Tepes Thot]

if you know anything about assassins creed, its that who cares about history you get cool action shit

Who cares about History, that’s why they made sure we played as accurate characters (in terms of identity) in every other AC game.

Or did I forget when we played the Valley girl in Origins or something?

Who the fuck is the target audience for this shit ?

Blackrock. kotaku reviewers, twitterartti who scream "racist chuds BTFO, I am so here for it!", Fatrick Tomlinsons twitter, and handful of awards shows, the few people "making" the game to pad out the DEI CV.

Oh, the handful of people that will bother to pirate it from 3rd world nations who will say "yo, why the nigger in this, yo this is gay, please repack CoD multiplayer holmes" on fittrannies comment section.

It will come and go, kinda like Legion. And Riders Republic. The Crew 2. That Division spin off no one cared for. Christ, Ubisoft is getting a rather large collection of "oh fuck I forgot that made that" games at this point.

Black twitter seems to love it

Oh boy I can't wait for dumb nogs and white women to jerk off about Yasuke while knowing little to nothing actually about him.

This post was made by the William Adams Gang

November 15 release. Maybe they should show some gameplay before telling us that.

 

[Sinner's Sandwich]

We wuz Samurai 'n shieeeet!

WE WUZ NIG- NINJAS

When Ubisoft gets around to Assassin's Creed: Africa, the main character should be white for balance.

 

[nostalgiasorrow]

Can't wait for this to bomb hard in Japan.
What's with every new AC game set outside of densely populated cities? AC 1, 2 brotherhood, Unity, Syndicate all were set in dense populated cities. Even AC 3 had towns with more life then AC Valhala.

 

[Sniperwoof]

All the promotional material has Kang Samurai in extremely heavy metal armor.

This is a game about sneaking around right?

Yasuke is an interesting historical figure, not for anything that he did (not that we know much about dude) but more for the fact that a black guy shows up in Jap history at all. Yasuke's real story is honestly a bit sad. The guy was a slave turned circus freak by a well known eccentric weirdo and probably didn't have a great life after his owner died.

I suppose that gives Ubisoft a lot of wiggle room for their interpretation of him in the context of the AC universe but I really wonder where they go with this though. If Ubisoft has any balls they'll make the native Japs treat Yasuke either like an animal or curiosity. Will they default to whitey being the villains? Yasuke is fundamentally a foreigner to Japan, how will the cucks at Ubisoft navigate the quagmire, I mean some random foreign dude just walking into Japanese society, and by virtue of being the main character, starts fixing all the problems around him. How will the only black guy in to entire country keep a low profile?

The Japan setting was a softball pitch for them to make a lot of money and even get people to buy the game that never had much interest in the first place. The wide open ninja sandbox to get that Tenchu feeling back would have been great.

What a waste

 

[Tepes Thot]

Japanese Twitter seems to like it (though there are certainly disappointed voices too), it’ll probably do well unfortunately.

Any credence to the rumors SBI is involved?

 

[WEEKEND]

Who knows. I might be wrong but Ubisoft isn't in a great place right now. Not because their games sell badly, but because their games cost stupid money to make. We'll have to see what happens but I wouldn't be surprised if this new game sells millions of units yet still loses money.

 

[Divine right to rule]

I predict that the PC version of Ghost of Tsushima will have more active players on Steam than this disgusting slops two weeks after release.

In a world where all AAA publishers only release woke DEI shit, Ubisoft is still on a league on its own.

I’ll be happy to be wrong, and that why I said I want them to be next, because I know they’ve been struggling.

I’m just shocked Japanese players are clapping for it, and many are saying it’s a must purchase, so I wasn’t sure.
