I think Assassin's Creed's price model is _way_ more offensive than their choice of characters
I like this argument
This. I'd actually love to play an Assassin's Creed game without them charging 129.99 for a collectors edition that just has day one DLC and a digital artbook.
Their bad graphics and game performance are also more offensive
@@reeseorta3052 graphics are incredible, but yes their optimization is awful
characters aside the story is probably gonna be ass either way. Better off just buying one of the AC on sale that actually is fun and good
The fact that she waited for her children to be dropped off but didnt care what happened to his daughter. Shes sick.
All I can think about is what HIS last thoughts were. There's NO way he knew as he was dying that his daughter would be spared. I am so happy she was...but I cannot imagine what his last thoughts were
I spent years in divorce court over custody. I was scared my ex-wife was going to try and hire someone to kill me, as her mom had been arrested for doing that to my ex's dad. I started setting little things that would let me know when someone was coming into my house when I wasn't there. They kept getting set off. So I bought cameras and made sure my ex knew they were there. I remember being cognizent of anyone who I didn't know who was in my area for more than a couple minutes. And never pulling over, even when my car was having issues. The paranoia gets to you. But stories like this woman keep me paranoid. I'll probably stay paranoid until my kids are grown up and she would no longer benefit from my death.
Yikes dude, I can’t really do anything to help but I wish you luck and good health
@@spicyarbiter7689 I appreciate it. But I'm not convinced there is anything to worry about. I have custody of the kids and she is involved in their lives. I've moved and she doesn't have ways into my current home .. but I do regularly tell friends that if I die, it wasn't a suicide.
Bridgerton is a massive win for the bigger girlies. Growing up I never saw my larger body depicted as something desirable, which often translated in how men treated me - something to be lusted after privately while publicly distancing themselves, ensuring that all men knew their stance on my kind of body was ‘gross’ and could ‘never be sexy’.
Having such a large cultural moment, showing us in a truly favourable light - it’s just beautiful to see.

“Hit ya with the chimp” out of context is hilarious.
💪🐒😤
Bro's gonna sic the trunk monkey on us
"HIT EM WITH THE MONKEY" also Phil
No hit me with that chimp.
i only hit the like button when we get hit with the monkey
As a South Dakotan I cannot express how thankful I am that how our Tribes are treated by Noem is being covered finally. This story is only a small dent in the damage she has done.
Native people have so little that was left to them, I'm glad they have a community big enough to defend themselves loudly there.
I think Noem wants the reservations to ban her, she had this tiny smirk after saying Ghost Dreamers @12:58 like she thought what she's saying is funny. If you invited her, it could force her to come and actually face the people on the reservation she's accusing. I'm no expert though.
Kristi "I can't tell mexicans from native americans" Noem
@@Unfortunately_Mickeycrazy thing is they GAVE most of it away. Most became slave owners/slaves and some went south or north. The natives faced 2 choices Jesus or getting eaten by red haired giants, history shows they made the right decision but implemented them incorrectly.
I was hyped when I heard my tribe finally banned her, I've been sick of her shit for years now.
That later segment summarizing the impact that drones have had on evolving the very nature of conflict and the relative impact that their use has had on the viability of the conventional war doctrine was wonderfully succinct. Props to the writers and thanks for distilling a topic that on the surface seems obvious but becomes increasingly complex the deeper you go. Great episode.
7:43 This tweet rubs me the wrong way for so many reasons, but I'll just focus on the main claim, that the playable characters are always locals. Here's a more accurate list targeting specifically the games I think he's referencing:
Rome - Florentine Assassin (this was well before the unification)
London - two English Assassins born outside of London (same country, but outsiders to the city at first)
Paris - French Assassin I guess technically, but his dad was British and his mom was Austrian, and his name is very British
Egypt - Egyptian Assassin
Greece - Spartan Assassin who spends quite a bit of time outside of Lakonia (but yes, Greek)
England again - Norwegian Assassin (I don't think there's been an AC game in Saxony, or anywhere in Germany for that matter, so I'm assuming by "Viking" they mean AC:Valhalla)
Anyway he forgot the Florentine Assassin in Constantinople, the Welsh Assassin in the Caribbean, and the British Templar on the East Coast of North America. Assassin's Creed is no stranger to featuring playable characters who aren't local to the game's location. The most worrying part about choosing Yasuke as the main character is I'm pretty sure the playable characters have all been fully fictional so far, even when they're close friends with real people. But there's so little known of Yasuke's life history that I don't think it matters that much. Plus, he was close to Oda Nobunaga in the last few years of Nobunaga's life, which is prime real estate for an Assassin's Creed character
I can’t imagine how terrified the daughter was after witnessing that happening to her dad
“Boom boom” and “daddy was sick”… damn i can only imagine what she saw holy shit
hopefully she doesnt remember it when she gets older, being only 2
Breaks my heart
I feel bad for the little girl and the killer. He was manipulated into doing something that ruined his life. Obviously it’s bad what he did but he looked like he was really old and most likely in debt. That money was probably his way out. Now it’s his ticket to prison.
@paddington1670 unfortunately, even if we consciously forget, our bodies never do. Trauma during development causes physical brain damage.
Holy shit, that lady is guilty as hell. The audacity of her to be smiling and winking in her bail trial is just psychotic.
Yeah, I think she needs to be locked up for life.
She has to be one. Not because 'murder' but that killing him played on her mind after divorce. She's not financially disadvantaged and remarried so why? Only someone who can't process other's feelings could be so persistent and so unprofessional with all her blabbing and approaching various people. She certainly doesn't feel any guilt with her court appearance the icing on the cake. That's a psychopath.
@@tkpsOr a High Functioning Sociopath
Given that shes a white woman I'd be shocked if she got more than probation.
watch the feminists defend her.
I appreciate that the captions aren't the auto captions only 6 hours after posting, but there a lot of missing words and mistakes, pretty much as many as I am used to seeing in the auto captions. Just wanted to note that, since the captions need to be of high quality for those who rely on them alone.
Replying to boost this comment. While I don’t rely on captions alone, I do use them to follow along with the video and the fairly frequent mistakes do make it harder for me to keep up with what’s being said. On top of that, I sometimes like to share these videos with friends who are hard of hearing or don’t speak English as a first language which means accurate captions are often more of a necessity for them than they are for me. I would really appreciate more accurate captions both for my own use, and also so that I can share these videos with my friends knowing that they’ll be able to fully access the content
... this is for boost bro, completely agree
Boosting as well. Also, since this is scripted, maybe they could post the transcript while the subtitles are being worked on? No idea how wonky getting yt subtitles to work, but that might be something relatively easy to do while the subtitles are being sorted at least?
Agreed! And the subtitles on the outro song, aside from one line, are total word salad 😭 "You every day you like my I see your" What?! Out of all the previous attempts at subtitling that part, the present one is sadly the worst...
Subtitles are way too important to just be thrown in there like they usually are
Thank you for covering the war in Ukraine with such professionalism.
Bridegan's case absolutely breaks my heart. That little girl will forever hear that sound in her dreams. Her own kids will forever have to live with the knowledge that their mother had their father killed. Murder is never the answer. So many lives ruined for what?!
Wasn't her kid, but first part still stands
@@chaosemerald4603You are correct in that the 2 year old was not her child. However he did have children with her, according to the story he was on his way home from dropping them off with her, right before he was shot.
The most stupid part is they think they can get away with it.
My father committed ☠️ and I still hear the sound of the shot. Also hate loud sounds, even a car door closed to fast will skyrocket my blood pressure
Its even worse that people came forward saying they tried to hire me to kill him. THEY COULD HAVE STOPPED IT!!! what the fuck?!??!!?
My Uncle is a retired State Trooper and he always said that the first suspect in a murder trial is the victim’s spouse and the second is the Ex. Just so stupid and sad.
For a reason lol
80% of murders are done by somebody the victim knows.
@@pablopablo3834 90% of sexual assaults happen by people that know the victim
@@pablopablo3834 sad fact...shouldn't be that way but it is
@@Unfortunately_Mickey that's what's ridiculous about hover parents that barely let Their children play outside, because they MIGHT get kidnapped (less then 1% possibility) .. when the true threat is around their own family, friends and people they trust.... If I ever have children I will never be more scared of outside forces
Literally the best editor ever. I've told no less than 35 people to watch this video for the best editing in the game. The man deserves all the good he gets. Tha k you for that kind sir. DEAR GOD GIVEM A RAISE PHIL!
“Florida mom”
In the wise words of Bernie Mac: “Nuff Said!”
the price of assassins creed should be the real controversy I swear
Exactly, I saw the prices and almost passed out.
yeah, I'm never paying 15 dollars for this shit
Gotta wait for them sales. Valhalla like $15 now. These games never hold up in price
Gotta wait for a sale man. Ubi games usually goes on sale fast 😂
Yeah, people focusing on the character controversy clearly are doing what Ubisoft wanted people to be doing. The price is the crime here, a complete Single-A game for 130$ is mad.
'there's cartels everywhere on tribal lands!'
'okay give us proof?'
'my proof is the media.' *points to articles about her own unsubstantiated claims*
Just like Trump, he lies about something, Fox News picks it up, then he acts like it's proof...and maga group all follows it like gospel.
Classic politician shit right there.
“The proof is everyone liking my posts on Facebook about the threat of crimes”
Noem: I made it the f*ck up
Classic right wing circle jerk tactics on full display
Just want to say, I LOVE your editor
The AI drone thing scares me. That is the start of something really really dark. Much worse than war.
The clone wars is prob next
The biggest scandal with Assassins Creed is it's pricing.

@@AMPProf Couldn't you say that about literally anything?
@@AMPProfyour comment does nothing to help earth. Quite literally.
SoDak resident here. Banning Noem from the reservations is honestly /NOT/ enough. She clearly seems to care about her career more than her state.
Between the "Meth: We're on it" anti-meth campaign, the whole dog-shooting debacle, and now her talking out of her hide with little to no evidence? Just get out already. The state could /DEFINITELY/ do with someone considerably more competent and who actually cares about their constituents.
I hated her as a state rep when I lived in South Dakota. When I found out that she became governor of the state, I was nearly beside myself. We all knew how crazy she was before. Turns out she's actually worse than I thought.
I remember going to school at SDSU in 2011 when she was there (as well as the state rep). I just forever will remember how much she disliked us there because the school was to liberal so she would refuse to participate with groups like the political science club.
My hope is that she doesn't seek reelection for her ambitions.
Fire her ass
I hope she gets voted out, but by who? We all know her but I can't name an opponent, does she even have one? Without an opponent she wins by default, she honestly seems to be a queen of failing upwards.
Thank you for talking about the war in Ukraine!
Nicola Coughlan telling people to F*** off is not only the most Irish thing I can think of, but exactly why she is one of the few celebrities I still follow. Whether it's her body, Gaza, or feminism in general, she always stands up and speaks loudly regardless of the pressure to fit in and keep the status quo. She is an absolute ICON!
Good God, imagine being responsible for a 2-YEAR-OLD witnessing her own father being gunned down, and then turning up in the courtroom SMILING! 🤮
Not her baby so I guess she didn't care. Though she probably wouldn't have cared either way.
Not her 2 yo. It was with his new wife.
Its so so sad:(
I'm from North Dakota and have many friends from SD. Noem's comments about the tribes are really unsurprising to me. The racism against Native americans up here in the north runs extremely deep. Just ask anyone in the Dakotas, minnesota, or wisconsin what they think of the reservations and the natives that live there. People will call them lazy, dangerous, uneducated. The anti-native racism is NORMAL here.
Aren't the "Ghost Dancers" a gang for the Shadowrun TTRPG? 😂
Yet the Native Americans are the original population and still get treated like scum. Us white people just take, pillage and plunder and have the audacity to call the native people the intruders. We're the scum not them.
As a European, that is so shocking.
Same here in Oklahoma. It's disgusting.
@@TheHestya Just think as the native Americans as Americas roma/gypsies/travellers and you will adjust. I live just up the road from a traveller camping spot and they don't do anything but work hard and keep to themselves but the shit you hear about them? Entitled arseholes exist everywhere and if your different they will come after you.
I see we are going through the annual "why are people freaking out about Pokimane" controversy
Pfft it's more than annual. She can't even fart without someone making it into a scandal
She's just that good at remaining relevant.
@@AstarTiamat her dedicated haters are that good at keeping her relevant
@@dog771no one is freaking out, ahe is becoming more and more irrelevant. This channel is just using her as bait for views.
Man if the modern day has taught me anything, it’s that I’m so relieved to not be in the spotlight.
Everyone seems to have forgotten about Travis Scott and Drake basically ignoring the crowd crush, and not being held responsible for people getting killed at the show.
What were they supposed to do? 😂
@@03of03the same thing every other artist did
Pay attention and stop the show when shit gets crazy
And not encourage people sneaking in
@@03of03 That has to be a rhetorical question.
First of all, Drake was a guest at the concert, had no involvement in planning, and wasn’t even performing when the crush happened. Secondly, Travis does have some responsibility, but at the end of the day, it’s really more on the people behind the scenes who are supposed to keep the crowd in check. Third, it’s really hard to hear anything when you’re on stage at such a massive concert. Everything that isn’t being played through a speaker just kind of melds together.
I always think of this when they're mentioned and it's like, "well I guess that's all that's gonna come of that."
Plotting to kill your ex husband in front of your own 2 year old is a level of malice that should warrant a life sentence without parole.
It was his baby with his new wife, still sick tho
But she should be fed and housed by taxpayers for the rest of her life as a reward? Doesnt seem right to me.
@@user-yy4ux9zf4r We have enough chicken byproduct and human shit going around, maybe we put that on the menu in cases like this? As for housing deep holes are relatively cheap to build nowadays.

"Information, death, and money"
Smells like a new PillyD merch quote to me.
"Information, Death, and Money," sounds like a Netflix Docuseries.
I actually had jury duty for an attempted murder on the Pine Ridge reservation back in the fall of 2023. For those who don't know, crimes like that on the reservation in South Dakota are prosecuted by the state of South Dakota, and they tried randomly pushing gang relation on the crime based on blue handkerchiefs on the handle of a bat and the grip of a gun. No other evidence, just threw it out there. The whole jury found it really odd and snakey of the state prosecutors to try to bring up gang violence randomly when there was no other mention of it.
It's South Dakota. The only surprising thing about your story is that the jury didn't agree.
@@bestieswithtesties I don't agree with that notion at all. South Dakotans are not our Governor.
“The world is run by information, death, and money” is by far the most epic Phil quote of the year
New merch incoming lol
Is sex categorized as information? It feels like sex should be on that list …
@@rosslytle5700While sex is definitely relevant I'd say it definitely fits under all of those categories. At least 2 out of the 3 involving sex are currently under investigation in NY. Suppressing information about sexual encounters by using monetary measures to buy exclusive rights to stories and or buying silence directly from those involved.
Noam saying there's cartel presence on the reservations sounds suspiciously like the US saying Iraq has wmd's
I’m proud of Phil for not dropping a Surfshark ad during the Ukraine drone segment!!!
Gov. Noem story: I'm growing more and more convinced that politicians should be required to have a Bibliography/Works Cited page on their campaign websites. We require them for high school essays but not campaign speeches.
That’s a really good idea!! It would force them to be more honest, if a politician is even capable of that….
That poor poor girl. I can't even imagine the terror she felt. When you said she told the police the she heard a "boom boom and daddy was sick" my heart shattered. That woman is a monster for not only hiring someone to take her children's father away, but infront of one of them, Absolutely insane.
Thank you Phil. Love your show.
When Phil was talking about take all the drone data into one place, I thought for sure that would lead into a Nord VPN ad spot. lol
Tribes: "The cartels are not here, and you are banished for being a lying bitch."
Noem: "Oh yeah? Why don't you banish the cartels?!"
For the same reason I don't have to tell my 2 year old niece to stop playing with trebuchets, but I do have to tell her to stop playing with her food.
There's a lot of drug trafficking going on in a lot of tribal lands and it's well known. Even gun smuggling through tribal lands that encompass both US and Canadian land.
I couldn't have said it better.
😂😂😂Thats hilarious but also very accurate
@@Nabrolo just because drug trafficking is going doesn't mean that Mexican cartels are there.
Exactly, a kid shouldn't be playing with a trebuchet until they are at least 6.
Another wild aspect about that first story is the woman’s connection to a mlm that is owned by her parents in Utah called Stampin’ Up. It is her parents who are allegedly bankrolling all of her attorneys
Hooooooly shite. I don't know what Stampin' Up's numbers look like these days, but, oh boy, the number of different groups they targeted to recruit.
To be fair, I was gifted some stuff from a family member that got involved with it, and it was all quality stuff. But the business practices, trassssh
How much?
I grew up a few houses down from Shanna’s parents. Shelly was always known as “the rich scrapbooking lady.” Although Shelly always acted like the perfect Mormon, I’m honestly not surprised to see that she’s defending her daughter’s actions here. Their whole family always felt a little fake.
Im an artist and I dropped Stampin Up the second this story broke about a year ago. My money will go elsewhere, for good. Her parents are just as obnoxious as her, so no love lost here, good riddance.
For the assassins creed part I recommend looking at the wikipedia entry for yasuke and then the "view history" for the editing. Very interesting.
I know straight to Wikipedia thinking they know something,tell em to try History Britannica to find out about the Great Yasuke top samurai 1st foreign samurai his amazing ahh fk em😂😂
Phil, I’m in Houston, so in case you cover the storms that happened here Thursday night, let me give you a little on-the-ground info:
I was driving home from work after 6pm when I felt the pressure in my ears change, kind of like when a plane is taking off. I knew in that moment I needed to pull over.
My neighborhood is full of fallen trees now. Big, decades-old oaks and other trees blocking entire streets, crushing buildings and vehicles.
I can only tell you this because I’m at work. If I were at home, I wouldn’t have power or internet. It’s not great to be in Houston right now!
Oh my god, that quote from the little girl DESTROYED me.
I adore the editing for "definitely don't search the internet to prove me wrong" very short, funny, and well done :P
Drone warfare is terrifying. If they figure out mass-produced A.I-driven drones that target soldiers, the counter would be for soldiers to not dress like soldiers. If they decide to appear as civilians to throw off being targets and the A.I. learns to target them anyway, I greatly fear for the cost humanity would incur.
The defranco war update was amazing
Wow, the US house passed a bill? Ticketmaster really screwed up.
Imagine being a governor and getting banned by many parts of the State you're supoose to Govern.
Tbf she doesn't govern the tribes, they're more tributaries than anything, but yes people don't usually get banned from their lands so the Governor being prohibited is hilarious.
Imagine being so mean, that you’re un-invited to the good parties so hard, you never get to have fry bread again?! 😨😭 I’m shook for her and I don’t even like her
She's the governor that state deserves
"I'm going to hit you with the chimp..." That was a perfect way to start my Friday, thank you for making my day Phil.
Phil, how about delving into all the claims of the massive amount of U.S. weaponry, provided to Ukraine, being sold off on the black market?
To quote Simon Whistler: Don't write down your crimes.
Love our fact boi.
Another quote, just as relevant (poor kid. Hope she gets all the help and love to overcome that trauma)
"Don't fuck up your kids!"

Did not expect to hear an in depth story of how modern war has become more like a real life RTS game. It's both mind blowing and terrifying seeing how many layers now exist to separate the ones making the decisions and the boots on the ground.

3:27 the craziest part about this hitman story is that the hitman wasn't an undercover cop.
Right? It's always an FBI agent.
Yeah they solicited multiple people and none of them was law enforcement?!
FBI really dropped the ball on this one XD
people at my school - a game design school - were freaking out about the main character in that assassin's creed game being a black guy, and the fact that someone pointed out that that was an actual samurai in that time period didn't seem to matter to anyone because "they chose the black guy on purpose", losing any semblance of nuance there might be to it
The stories of yasuke are pretty cool, I can't wait, honestly. There's a really dope anime about him, it's not historically accurate, but it is incredibly badass.
Closed Captions immediately upon release of the PDS?! Awesome job PDS Team!
Shame it's not that much better than youtube auto captions, it's just... differently formatted. there's still *a lot* of errors 😔
Closed captions that repeatedly and routinely misspell names, end sentences prematurely, and mistake words with homonyms. I’d take CCs posted a few hours late that are correct over instant, auto-generated CCs that can’t even spell a person’s name. This is a news show: the captions should be right.
Edit: sorry, I meant homophones, not hononyms. Dyslexia strikes again.
@@Butterfly1025A You made a really great point that I agree with, but I have to ask, why do you use captions if you’re dyslexic?
Yes omg thank you so much! I like to watch things that my child shouldn't hear with the subs on! So thank you so so much for these!
@@Personwtcats afaik dyslexia doesn't mean you can't read lol, just jumble up letters/words sometimes. Plus there's actually many different types of dyslexia

The Japanese are laughing their asses off right now.
A 13 year old would destroy a whole battalion.

This was such an informative insight into the Ukraine war.
"Information, death, and money" next PDS t-shirt
"I'm just gonna hit you with the chimp, and let's go" might be my new favorite " let's jump right it" "punch you in the throat" are good, and the outro can't change " love your faces" is just too good.
Funny story: When my sister was like, 18 or 19 years old, she was going to get arrested on elder abuse charges. When the police got to Grandma's house, where she was staying at the time, she threw a puppy at them. It did nothing to hinder the pursuit, but whenever my friends and I start joking around about the police, our catchphrase has been, "Just throw a puppy at them," ever since.
@@blackmaidenmissa That is a story, that needs an animation budget.
I read the state of emergency at first as being in "New California" and my Fallout brain exploded
"information death and money" got a spooky sense of deja vu, like you've said this before.
The same people who were complaining about wanting a “unique Japanese story” when the story of Yasuke is like… objectively one of the most unique stories in Japan like ever, legit just want a Sekiro 2
Just dropping some quick appreciation to the editor today! Solid job especially the exit joke before Assassins Creed. Good way to lighten the mood
That poor baby in the car. How utterly sickening.
27:24 "Information, death & Money" needs to go on a t-shirt
Great reporting on the Ukraine story! Well-researched.
"Nickel industry now on the rocks" I did not expect to see an unintentional geology pun today from Phil.
I heard it and had to stop myself from closing RUclips.
Or was it?
As a long time resident of South Dakota, I can tell you there are no Cartels on the reservations. They can be rough for sure, but almost everything Niem says or does is for her self gain...not South Dakotans.
How do you know though? Do you go around and visit them regularly and ask or something?
"Hit you with the chimp" is my new favorite intro
"boom boom and then daddy was sick" My heart aches
That woman really really believed "till death do us part" not just divorce
To the quote at the end of the SD story, it's okay if we are talking about this new controversy because all those conversations will referance her as 'the lady that killed her dog'
I dont think she will ever live that down.
they put a add right when you cut for the search bar scene, maybe just a coincidence or they know where to place them.
What is it with politicians forgetting we live in an information age. As soon as they say something, there is video evidence or data that can prove or disprove any claim.
the ukraine story reminds me of the russo-japanese war, which is often taught as the testing ground for the weapons that were used in wwi. and the ai aspect just makes it scarier. the last thing we need is an ai-drone hallucinating in the middle of a conflict
When Phil made a comment about ww2 tanks, i heard lazerpig cry out some where 😂
Oh my god. I haven’t watched the PDS in a hot minute, but you lost so much weight! I’m very happy and proud of you, Philly D! I need to do the same.
"I'm gonna hit you with the chimp" has the be the funniest thing I've heard all year
Damn! General DeFranco laid out the state of the Ukraine war very well. Seriously, that was a great analysis!
as a Ukrainian I would like to thank you for continuing coverage on russia's war in Ukraine. Especially for this episode. It's been more than 3 years of our fight against genocide and it is vitally inpostant to keep remonding everyone that we still fighting, trying to hold on
Hey Hi. Just wanted to say I'm really impressed with the amount of informations you got on New-Caledonia's situation, and I'm glad you presented it and talked about the issue.
I'm currently studying in France, and it's pretty difficult to see everything happening to the places I grew up in, with my family and friends being there.. So yeah. I commend your sources, and your neutral take on the matter as always 😌👏
PS- I don't plan on getting political and explain what's happening *especially in a youtube comment section* but I invite anyone interested in these events to try and read the articles presented in the video. ^^
That O.G. Chimp opening is like comfort food for my soul.
I'm very happy for the actress in Bridgerton, because its awesome for her and her character, both who start having been forced into this mould by society but then take ownership of themselves and thrive
"So, I'm just gonna hit you with the chimp" was the perfect intro... well done Phil.
All i have to say on AC: Shadow, is that no one was mad about the far more ahistorical British guy starring in _Shogun_ . Yasuke is one of TWO main characters you can play as.
As a South Dakotan if there is drug cartel on reservations that should be investigated. But if there is no evidence of that well you just look even worse.
There is no evidence. She's making it up because she wants to be elected by racists
Such a shame
Northern-Irish Canadian here... Nicola's relatable as a Northern Irish girl in Derry Girls because, turns out, not everyone is going to be the standard "perfect" example of standard beauty.
I like that the show feels real to something that could've actually happened back home in Derry. Well, Maghera or Derry, maybe not Belfast... 🤣
Wow the war part was so fascinating!
From a media criticism lens, I think it's interesting how many western-made stories about Japan have a non- or part-japanese protagonist (recently Netflix's Yasuke & Blue Eye Samurai, and Hulu's Shogun; previously, The Last Samurai). I don't think it's bad, a foreign protagonist is frequently a (western) audience's stand-in, both of us strangers in this story, but it's an interesting trend. As a fan of the series, I think Yasuke and Naoe could be good protagonists; Ubisoft has (surprisingly lol) done something very smart in having two characters "specializing" in two different combat styles, so players can play the game either as a classic samurai or classic assassin, as opposed to trying to have one character fill both character types. Especially as Yasuke is a historical character in his own right, I don't see them as "imposing modern values onto historical time periods ('wokifying')" by including him. Their previous releases had similar types of characters, with Haytham and Basim in Valhalla, and several NPCs and at least one antagonist in Mirage all being foreigners to the games' settings. IRL, the world was not separated into neat little nations with impassible borders. Conflict between cultures, nations, and ideals has always been part of the assassin's creed story from the very beginning: crusaders vs saracens, egyptians vs romans/greeks, vikings vs english, american colonists vs england, etc.
Really appreciated the in-depth dive into drones and an update on Ukraine. I hard heard drones were making a difference but I had no idea how. It really seems like how they’re changing the ways wars are fought but also how they’re supplied on the international level. Nice job with the writing on that piece!
when you refresh to accidentally see the new vid 30 seconds after release
Literally me just now. I was just watching yesterdays news with the gfs.
Lmao literally
Mine was four minutes, wish it was 30 seconds lol.
Best feeling.
I'm always a little happy when that happens, then realize it's because I'm habitually on this website 😅
Damn that was a strong *BEEEAUUUTIFUL* today Phil!
Grammarly keeps my gramma on the internet..doable. XD
The WW1 comparison to Ukraine is apt in more ways than one, seeing as a big reason that that war stalemated as much as it did was the same as it is today: the doctrine at the time had not caught up to the weapons utilised on the battlefield. Tight formations of men marching slowly towards the enemy was no longer effective when the enemy brought machine guns.
To a lesser extent the same thing can be said about WW2, with how long it took certain countries, mainly the allies, to figure out how to best use armour and air power effectively. It’s pretty fascinating seeing it happen again, and if history tells us anything, the stalemate will continue until a new method of enabling a breakthrough (which in WW1 was the tank) can be devised.
