Connor kenway can extend his blade and use it as a knife in assassin's creed 3 as well and im glad they brought that back
Oh yeah I forgot about that
The best Assassin’s Creed
@@Necrasis i cant wait for this game
Finally someone that supports AC3
Isn’t it cool that Connor has now 2 arsenal connections to Asian brotherhoods, or more specifically, Shao Jun?
Little correction : it isn't the first time we play an historical character, as Syndicate's DLC made us play Jack the Ripper, and Odyssey intro King Leonidas. It's the first time that an historical character is the main protagonist of a main title, though.
People forget about that.
@@enenrax Because it doesn't really matter, you play as Leonidas for 10 minutes and Jack the Ripper for about an hour, and Jack has so much mystery surrounding him that other then his name and crimes he is basically fictional
Man playing as Leonidas at the beginning of Odyssey was so cool! Odyssey in general gets a lot of hate but I still really enjoy the game
A historical character?
Yasuke, the black person you are referring to, was a slave/sword bearer back in japan.
The only recorded black man in the history of Samurai.
Everytime he appeared, folks would gather around to stare at the "strangly colored man".
He would be the worst assassin, to every secretly assassinate someone.
@@DoctorORBiT Ubisoft stated:
"As a shinobi, Naoe is the most skilled at stealth. Yasuke can use stealth, but his size and armour plating means he’s better at using those skills to get the drop on targets rather than perform a fully silent infiltration."
And he doesn't have a Hidden Blade :v
Your guy's reaction to the game was a breath of fresh air.Just looking at the game for what it is good job
I was thinking the same thing.
For what this was It was a cg trailer and not the game
「主人公が黒人か」より、縄文顔も弥生顔も理解出来ないまま大陸顔の主人公女性を「日本人」として扱っている事にがっかりした
西洋甲冑の肩鎧＋日本鎧の大袖が同居し、その上で星兜の全身鎧というデザインにも失望した
誰も気づかないのか？あの鎧と兜の構造では上段に武器を構えられない。首も動かせない。肩も動かせず構えも取れない。それが素人でも一目見てわかるのに、どうして侍がそれに気づけない？そんな防具をつけて戦場でもない街中を歩く？まったく素晴らしい、製作者達は歴史よりも自分の常識を修正するべきだ
the translation of your comment is very good, interesting
@@tharagui
日本人が衝動的に書き込んだだけです
@@firim17ワイも同じこと思った笑
まあ、「これが史実です！(キリッ」ってしてなければ、外国人が考えがちな愛すべきトンデモジャパンで楽しめたんだろうなとは思うのが勿体無い
Actually they didn't care much us Asian
@@sirbill443True, だから燃えてんだよね。
Can we call agree that for a CGI trailer this one amazing.
And of course the RUclips comments under this cool trailer have been very normal and not at all insane
Japanese shrines retain many influences from ancient Israelites and the regions around Mesopotamia. In particular, the sacrificial ritual of the Onbashira Festival at Suwa Taisha is very similar to the story of Isaac's sacrifice in the Bible. Many clans fled the volcanic eruption in Japan around 7,000 years ago, migrated to the region around Egypt, and returned to Japan after several generations.
日本人からしたら笑いネタなんだけど欧米人にはコレが日本なんだろうね😂
For me it's a joke too, but what can you do?!
Do some reactions to the AC trailers! They are epic.
It’s nice to go into a comment section and not seeing people complain about this game. It looks great and I will play it
u are a great person
Twitter is the worse for the complaints about this game. Everything about this game, the stuff confirmed by IGN and Ubisoft, this game will surprise people.
Dude, it's an Ubisoft game. For now, we know NOTHING about this game.
@@caedus0809 we actually know a lot but I guess you don't pay attention.
I understand different opinions with "mean" words on the internet can be scary for some people.
I like how this year you’ve been doing a lot of blind reactions, suiting the channel name. Love your excitement for this one too.
And 7:00 you definitely should do a video ;)
Game cinematics reactions would be pretty awesome
Mirage was set in Iraq 🙂
Can u guys do a reaction to every assassins creed cinematic trailer?!
They've probably watched it all by now.
I second this! Even if they've watched it would be fun to revisit them and see the evolution of the franchise
@@Rowlandi11 Yeah but it won't be genuine.
Here’s hoping the combat is as good as Ghost of Tsushima, a game which, ironically, can probably best be described as “Assassin’s Creed in Japan”.
I'm guessing they'll split the stealth and assassination parts with the Female Shinobi while the Hack And Slash combat will be with Yasuke.
The stealth in Tsushima was awful.
Some cool information.
This game is set about 18-20 years before the events in Shōgun. The character that Yasuke serves is Oda Nobunaga, who was the real-life counterpart of Kuroda Nobuhisa, the warlord who Lady Mariko's father betrays/kills, and who is Lady Ochiba's father. Yasuke was actually present when Nobunaga was ambushed, and he fought alongside him in that battle before he was overcome and made to give up his sword.
I wonder if we'll be able to meet these characters in the game? Mariko's father's real-life counterpart Akechi Mitsuhide. The Taikō Toyotomi Hideyoshi. And, of course, Tokugawa Ieyasu, the real-life counterpart of Mr. Hiroyuki Sanada's Yoshii Toranaga.
I loved watching Eric play AC Valhalla. It was the story and characters that kept me interested, so hopefully this has more of the same.
Valhalla is the only AC game I haven’t finished. By far the worst in the franchise.
@@GunkusI beat it twice
@@jojocasimir1118 wow. I love the AC franchise, it’s one of my favorites but I just can’t get into Valhalla. What do you like about it compared to others?
@@Gunkus the worst... so far...
If they are going to feature an assassin, they should use hidden clans like the Imbe clan, Kamo clan, or Hata clan rather than Yasuke.
The theory that the Hata clan are ancient Israelites fits perfectly with Assassin's Creed and ties in with the story of Assassin's Creed 1!
Given that Nobunaga is connected to the Imbe clan, it would make sense if they based the story on that.
I really hope this comes out on Switch 2 or whatever it ends up being called
As a Japanese, I am horrified that Yasuke's historical facts are being spread as historical facts rather than fictional novels.
Yasuke had nothing to do with the history of Japan.
You're not Japanese pal
If your name is mentioned in the speaking of the past among many, then you are indeed part of it's history.
aS a JaPaNeSe!! shut up
@@NobleSavvyThe problem is that's not why Ubisoft did it. It would've taken them far less time to find a white guy in ancient Egypt, but they still went with a black main character in Origins. I am sure white guys were also more common in Feudal Japan.
@@NobleSavvynot true, that's why there is literally nothing on the guy. So yes, the original comment is correct.
We haven't seen the turning/grabbable hidden blade since 3.
Mirage is really short, you could get through that in a few days at some point this year if you wanted to play it before Shadows
Mirage is set in Baghdad, guys. Iraq.
Guys the game linked under the video is Indiana Jones :^)
no trailer link this time?
We may need a reaction to all the Assassin’s Creed cinematic trailers. The trailer for Revelations is one of the greatest of all time. They were even playing it before movies in theaters!
I was so happy that they used the original Assassin’s Creed song (Ezio’s Family) at the end of the trailer. It sounded so beautiful like usual
No
The original assassin’s creed song is called assassin’s creed song is “assassins creed theme” originally in ac revelations if you havent heard that in a while check it out
you don't lose your finger since AC2 haha yeah that's the pivot blade like Connors
I swear I've been waiting for Japanese AC since the second game lol. Not the biggest fan of the franchise anymore (just general fatigue) but Odyssey was an awesome realization of ancient Greece and had fun combat. I'll play it just to see Ubisoft's take on feudal Japan
Haven’t been this excited for a AC game in a long time, this whole setting i was waiting on for years! This probably will be one of my favorites 🤩
I think yasuke might be my new favorite ac character he fights like a demon
So I'm guessing for the stealth and assassin part is for the Female Shinobi while the hack and slash gameplay of the recent AC games will be with Yasuke.
Not the gonna lie. That's actually cool.
そして俺たちの歴史を改竄する。
白人も黒人も変わらないな、アジアをバカにしてんだよ
Guys… mirage is in iraq not afghanistan
trailer looks awesome but the game is expensive for me
08:16 Not the same tbh. The era is different unless you talk about playing in a historicallly rural ancient Japan's feel then yes, pretty much. Most historical games would feel that way. Shadows literally set in a time where it's basically Japan's Romance of 3 Kingdoms, it's way more busy with life and death than the entire scenery/cutscene of Ghost, which, I think i understand why they named it "Ghost" of Tsushima, there's nothing there. It's just made-believe. Plus history.
From what I see they probably start off as enemies and assuming the ninja or clan she belonged to were part of the assassins so how and why would she recruit someone who potentially slaughter her village
Knight＝Cniht?
Bushi＝Samurai?
so hyped for this one!~
behold yasuke the black samurai of feudal japan. People can complain about a black samurai in feudal japan, but for some reason they do not complain when a white woman or man in feudal japan as the setting. For example, blue eyed samurai.
You obviously didn’t watch blue eyed samurai, first of all.
Secondly, there were many white people in Japan, much more than black people. The reason Yasuke was kept and allowed to live in the first place was because the ruler of Japan at the time thought he was special and unique
Or Nioh bosses....
Because people are uneducated. I already knew about Yasuke so I figured it must be him in the trailer. I havent seen blue eyd samurai, but apparently she is mixed race and half japanese, and there were white people in this time that could've been her father like a dutch sailor or maybe even William Adams himself (Blackthorne from Shogun) who did have a daughter named Susanna with a japanese woman, but I dont think she is the Blue eyed samurai.
Lots of white people had access to Japan, they were the ones that forced open there isolationism after all, so having white people existing in Japan wouldn't be an insane thought.
There's also the fact that Japan was incredibly racist and killed 99% of all non Japanese people, and only initially kept yasuke alive because of the unique color of his skin.
The disbelief is warranted as the reason Yasukes story is so badass is because of how impossible it sounds
The reason why matters though and yeah people complain when white characters are in feudal Japan. But usually it's done to show the actual "invasion" of the west into the east that took place. That's not why they chose Yasuke though. They did it for the same reason the other character is a woman it's to meet a quota. But in the end it wouldn't matter along as the characters are good and act appropriately for the era. Also they probably should have just made a fictional character as they'll basically have to change everything about Yasuke to make it work. But who knows maybe it will.
Yasuke served Nobunaga the First unifier of Japan for like 3 years before his assassination. He was said to have been present during Nobunaga's death when he was betrayed by one of his main lieutenants Mitsuhide Akechi. His story afterwards as many of Nobunaga's close attendants is shrouded in mystery. When Nobunaga was burnt in the temple he had only Yasuke and a teenage son of one of his oldest vassals Ranmaru Mori. Ranmaru was confirmed to have died in the ensuing fight but Yasuke seems to disappear into legend after the Honnoji Incident(Assassination of Oda Nobunaga).
I guess Yasuke's mysterious ending made him eligible for a role in Assassins Creed especially if he will be on a crusade against the traitors within the Oda Clan and the conservatives who are against unification.
We know Yasuke was sent back to the Jesuits.
Another thing most people don't know, Ranmaru and Yasuke were both lovers of Nobunaga.
@@MustardSkaven
If I am correct, that last bit is an assumption that modern historians make based on evidence available. It is not actually recorded anywhere. Please enlighten me if I am wrong about this.
Amd he still wasn't a samurai
@@ravenfal1496 There is no mention of him being a samurai either but people are apparently rolling with that. So we may as well assume they were lovers as well.
at the end he died in india as slave
It's been a while since I commented on a Blind Wave video, but I wanted to let y'all know, I feel like I needed this reaction video. I've been so excited for this game, maybe not excited enough to pre-order because I can't afford it, but still excited for the game in general, but I've been around so many toxic gaming groups online that I felt it was wrong to be excited for it. So thank you, guys. I'm glad I'm not alone. Hope y'all have a good rest of your day
I'm over ubisoft fetch quest games to be honest, hope people enjoy it
This trailer got me very interested and it's definitely going on the list of games I will eventually play!
The main theme gave me chills!
Please consider streaming more Assassins Creed!
You know its a been a WHILE since yall have played an AC game if you mention how they just now figured out how to avoid cutting off the finger 😂😂😂
People and a lead writer who dont care about true gaming. Only they care about this time around is to push their agenda and to pandering to some groups of people.
It's been 17 years since AC1 and we are finally getting an assassins creed game set in feudal Japan. I am excited but worried at the same time. I just hope the game mechanics are well done. The combat, parkour, variety of weapons, etc. Also the story telling in the previous games has been a bit lackluster for me, not necessarily the content of the story but the way the it's told through the characters, the delivery and certain acting kinda throws me off. But nonetheless, I am very excited.
You guys should react to all the assassins creed trailers and rank them
Not to break the enthusiasm of everybody, but Ubisoft? Pre-orders? Gold Editions? Not to mention how much more fantasy and less historical the last AC games have become? I would be cautious about it.
the last ones? have you ever played the first ones brother? sorry to say but leonardo da vinci did not make adjust the hidden blade for ezio my g
@@tharagui I am not sure what are you trying to say with the Leonardo thing.
you said that im the "last games" they less historical, which is untrue
@@tharagui compared to the first ones they are.
Thank you for your hard work.
I am Japanese.
I apologize for the poor English translation by Google translation.

I love this franchise and I am excited to play this game
Im super excited for this and i know it is controversial but i like Yusuke and i definitely wanted more of him in things. Also please react to all the trailers for assassin's creed there all done well.
The letter from Luís Fróis, a Jesuit missionary, written in 1581, mentions Yasuke as an individual of African origin who served as a samurai under Oda Nobunaga. Although this letter is an important historical source corroborating Yasuke's presence in Japan and his role as a samurai, it is not the only evidence available. Other Japanese historical records from the time also mention Yasuke as an African warrior who achieved the rank of samurai.
I keep getting mixed comments, some like this and others sawing he was just a retainer only allowed to hold Oda’s blades
I am Japanese. No Japanese people think that Yasuke is a samurai. Before that, very few Japanese people knew about Yasuke. If Yasuke is a samurai, he should have a last name. There are no historical documents that show that Yasuke was a samurai.
From a Japanese perspective, there is a strong sense of discomfort between a black samurai and a continental Asian woman's face.
Someone tell Eric to livestream AC mirage, it's short you'll be done fast
I’ve played literally every single AC game so I can’t wait for this one! Wonder if we’ll get to play as any more historical figures in this game because playing as Leonidas in AC Odyssey for that little bit was awesome!
So im just guessing but the girl gives us stealth elements and the guy give us RPG elements
fun fact the female kunochi is a fictional character
This game looks so DOPE.
It looks alright.
FINALLY! The first new AC game I'll play.
I am so glad that we finally getting a AC that takes place in JP. I wanted it for so long. Can't wait to see gameplay too. And it will come out in my birth month. So its even better.
Brownie point
Assasins goes around the world but not Iran with is the birthplace of assasins
I actually might buy this one
So many people were crying about Yasuke being a character, of course. Listen, whatever is true about the real life figure doesn't matter. It's an Assassin's Creed game. They've never been historically accurate. It's like saying God of War is true to greek/norse mythology
I've seen it more as Japanese people complaining that this is when they choose the diversity route for a main character. It's pretty clear that western media doesn't really care about Asian representation.
知らねー外人がイキってて草
Im hyped because this is a REAL installment. Not a DLC- turned game. This is gonna be a big leap from Valhalla. HOPEFULLY!
They capitalizing on the hit that was Shogun. Smart play by Ubisoft.
Game was in development long before Shogun came out
This game been in development for like 5 years.....
I can't wait for this game i love the Japanese culture and to uave a assassin's creed game in that setting has me excited i also just brought mirage so im looking forward to playing that for the first time
Hahaha this game is making fool of everyone’s common sense
ur "commom sense" is not my "common sense", also a fantasy world does not need to adjust to ur "common sense" thats how masterpieces are made, breaking the "common sense" altought i doubt this ubi game will be a masterpiece
I love leaning into the Oni idea with Yasuke's equipment, taking advantage of his huge stature.
Genuniely so excited to play this game!! :D

I guess the next God of War will be in Japan since they followed suit with AC Valhalla 🤔🤔
Vallhalla came out in 2020
yasukeeee
Part of the appeal of Assassin’s Creed for me has always been seeing how they take a character you wouldn't typically imagine as an assassin and make them one. This is why I’m glad they stayed away from a Japanese-style game for so long. However, I do think the time is right to finally introduce one. I'm excited for this one.
A lot of things that were completely uncontroversial before, like a black character existing in a game set in a different country. A few years ago, it suddenly became a problem when it turned out you can farm money and engagement from crying about completely normal things. Yasuke appeared in other games too, and no one cried about it.
The fight between "woke" and anti-woke is really taxing. Let us reserve our judgement and count the chickens after the eggs hatch.
Mirage is in Iraq, silly americans
Yasuke finally getting some mainstream love
these guys are paid from ubisoft!
Love when studios shoehorn in the black guy who was a literal nobody in actual history. Gotta keep pushing the agenda.
Yasuke was a Samurai of Lord Oda during this time, what are you smoking? LOL
@@RazorO2Productions He was a literal footnote in history and all he did was carry stuff around for Oda.
@@RazorO2Productionsare you mad at the Japanese people who are enraged by this? Is all of Japan racist for being upset by this?
@@Gunkus They never even said anything close to what you just said.
@@darryljack6612 I’ve seen so many more Japanese people upset than US. I want to be clear. Idc at all, I just want a good game with a good story. If they give me something like Mirage or Valhalla I’ll be very disappointed.
I'm soooo freaking excited for this game! Fuck the haters that complain about everything!
Yasuke was never a samurai he was a retainer there's no historical record of him being a samurai
yes and you can't time travel or Animus and there is no piece of eden. what's your point?
Why the FUCK is this important!!!!! On every video I watch of people reacting to this game, someone has to bring this shit up. It is pissing me off now! STOP!!! IT'S A FUCKING GAME!!!
this game is going to suck...can't wait till they do assassin creed in Zulu-land with a 6 foot 4 in WHITE guy?
remember when marvel said that we prefer quality over quantity after giving us a few nightmares well ubisoft prefer quality and quantity both
Thank you guys for googling the guy on screen rather than get all up in arms trying to claim he is a "woke" shoehorned in addition
Because he is... no matter that he's simply a footnote in Oda Nobunaga's story, there is no logical sense to have a black man as the male protagonist in a feudal Japan setting.
The amount of historical detail that Ubisoft got wrong with this game is astonishing.
It is a video game made to cater to a Western Liberal audience. Unfortunately, they had to defecate on Japanese culture and the Asian market to do so.
@@distortedsoul27 "there's no reason/logical sense to have a black man as a male protagonist in feudal Japan?" Why not? Seems to work just fine every time they have a white man do it. Never causes any major backlash.
Also the historically accurate assassins creed you remember is nothing more than a figment of your imagination. This is a fantasy game with a historical backdrop through and through.
@@distortedsoul27You're actually expecting historical accuracy in a video game?
@@distortedsoul27cry about it
We finally get an Assassin's Creed game set in Japan, and they don't show us any gameplay and they make us play as a black guy who was never even a samurai 😂
He was. Also it doesn't matter it's not a history book. It's a video game with fucking magic in it

@@tonyilias2561 🥱🥱He was a samurai. All of the actual credible ones have said that Yasuke was a samurai. Educate yourself better.
So there's a black samurai, I honestly don't see the problem. Are you people seriously expecting there to be historical accuracy in a video game?
These same people didn't complain when Tom Cruise played a samurai in the Last samurai movie
So now when gamer play male protagonist they will play an African character killing a Japanese NPC in Japan. Good job UBI
the trailor is funny though, use the outsider to represent the Japan culture, hmm, well play SJW, ''All races are equal'' but not the asian, right ?
wahh one black character in video game is insult to Asian! 😭😭 shut the hell up
He wasnt a samurai
He was, goober.
Look at Yasuke in the Maeda Clan version of the Shinchōkōki. Kaneko Hiraku (professor at the Historiographical Institute of the University of Tokyo, the most prestigious historical research institution in Japan) agrees with this. Additionally, in the book it says : This black man called Yasuke was given a stipend, a private residence, etc., and was given a short sword with a decorative sheath. He is sometimes seen in the role of weapon bearer. The meaning of the word stipend is not supposed to prove Yasuke was a samurai all by itself. What proves Yasuke was a samurai is not that he received a samurai stipend, but that he received a samurai stipend and carried Nobunaga's weapons which was the job of a samurai and had and fought with a katana at Nijō and he was mobilized and followed Nobunaga on the Takeda campaign of 1582 and remained by Nobunaga's side even after Nobunaga dismissed all his "ordinary soldiers".
@@akshayhere There are no clear historical documents that show that Yasuke was a samurai. Also, possessing Nobunaga's weapon does not necessarily equate to being a samurai. Nobunaga was walking around with a rare black man, and he might have just given him a sword. After Yasuke escaped at Honnoji Temple, he was captured by Akechi's army, but he was released. If Yasuke had been a loyal and strong samurai, he would have been killed on the spot. Japanese people are not stupid enough to blindly believe what a Tokyo University professor says. In fact, very few Japanese people think of Yasuke as a samurai.
@@user-yd6mb3vk5z Considering almost every japanese media about him portrays him as a samurai, you're wrong there. Additionally he also fought at battle beside Nobunaga. That qualifies as samurai, with the addition of a stipend (which samurai were given). In general, 扶持 is a term for a payment for mid-lower ranking warriors for them to hire (usually warrior) servants for (usually temporary) employment. Given the term's usual usage, and that Yasuke was clearly by Nobunaga's side in permanent employment, it doesn't make sense for Yasuke to be anything but a warrior.
Read before spreading misinformation. The conclusion of all reasonable historians on the matter is that Yasuke was a samurai, and anyone who disagrees can suck on the historical record.
And the Animus and time travel isn't real. Pieces of Eden is real. It's a video game. The only time you whine is when Black person is on your screen. LMAO
@@akshayhere日本人です。弥助は武士でも侍でも無い、「荷物持ち」です。彼は戦っていません。嘘をついて誤解を広めるのはやめてください。
This looks good but Ubisoft's business practices and predatory pricing makes it a skip for me.
The amount of brainwashed people worrying so much about the race and gender of the MC's rather then the fact that ubisoft is pushing the same 130$ for a game like they did with star wars outlaw is crazy.
If you want an actual good samurai game, play Ghost of Tsushima and dont support a company like ubisoft that only cares about pandering to a certain audience and flooding their games with microtransactions and battlepasses.
Cause i have no doubt in my mind that when this game drops, it'll be terrible like all the recent AC games. Vote with your wallet and dont buy games ubisoft makes!! Thats the only way these big companies will listen!
With the long trend of social agendas destroying beloved franchises the worrying part is definitely not unfounded. And I agree people should not support game companies that have disdain for its playerbase.
There's no point in complaining because this is Ubisoft's standard price now.
What bothers me is that they make a forced inclusion, the protagonists are going to be Badass to make everyone happy.
What do you mean brainwashed? Sure there's the overly anti woke crowd that complains about everything but there's very real complaints for Japanese fans. There's already a lack of Asian male leads in western media. Than western media sets something in Japan and decides this is the time for diverse representation.
@@kaelinvictus6039 I'm not saying worrying about the agenda they're trying push isn't unfounded. only that the mass of people seem to think that's the major problem with the game and no the fact its going to be another EA microtransaction filled game that wont preform well.
@@enenrax there is totally a point in complaining! consumers have the power to make or break companies like ubisoft, look at what happend with the sonic trailer or even helldivers recently. if people just keep letting stuff like this go by and not say anything about it n let it become the norm is how itll destroy the gaming industry
Yasuke was never a samurai. He was basically a slave/servant
Good thibk we are playing a fictional game 👍
Who knew that they can creatively expand on a character
A ubisoft "ORIGINAL"
Not really, he was a samurai
@@symonheiloguu No, he wasnt. Actually do your research. He was a retainer that potentially may have never even been in a battle once in his entire life
@@tonyilias2561 A retainer was a samurai, my guy, there's literally japanese descendants of samurais saying so, who even are you
Asian wars? Wtf is that it was showing the Oda army killing the Iga Ninja clan
They can see him... he's well over 6 feet tall, some say 6'7". While Japanese men, on average, are 5'7" as we speak. He stands out like a sore thumb.
There's a whole slew of things wrong with the premise that they have for this game. And, if I'm being honest, they're 10 years too late to cash in the want for it.
No matter how they sugar coat this clear attempt of pandering, it is built for a Western Liberal audience; unfortunately, they had to defecate on the Asian audience (Japanese culture specifically) to do so.
Yes we know. The trailer shows us who is the stealth and who is the brute force. No need to explain we already know that's the point of the two different characters
@@cd878 Except if Yasuke has gone around killing important figures and generally fucking shit up in Japan, he would have been much more than a footnote in Japanese history. Everybody would have heard of the 6 foot 7 black guy kicking ass and he would have been a prominent figure in history. AC games have always tried to follow real history closely, and try to tie their games into it as seamlessly as possible. That's why AC main characters were always historical nobodies who fit their region's main demographic. So that it makes sense that they never appear in the history books. They could fit into any crowd and vanish without a trace. Nobody would remember that they were ever there. But that's not possible with Yasuke. He sticks out like a sore thumb. Everybody would remember if they saw him even once in passing.
the idea of Japan AC is what we are waiting for,, until Ubi just destroyed that hope... WTF Ubi? you just disrespected a great culture.and misleading history... and hirintg mentally ill "woke" developers... The F?!!! this game will flop... sad to say... this may sell but not as expected... im not buying the game...
hey dont forget that it's written by a tattooed white woman with pronouns in their bios that's why the black is the protag it's their go to to feel good for themselves. their consultant? a japanese woman with NARRATIVE position who wrote book about fictional male to male fantasy in feudal japan with adolescent boys. yes this game would be great by this people who make them
Just more endless trash of games
Putting the "blind" in Blind Wave as usual. This game is racist. Oda kept him around because of the color of his skin. He was never a samurai and was viewed as a pet.
These games aren't direct adaptations of history. They are loose adaptations but more fictional.
Why is the game racist? lol
So... the pope being a lizzard person, is okay. DaVinci making weapons for a centuries old society of assassins, is okay. George Washington being a madman because a golden apple, is okay. But Yasuke being a Samurai is not okay.
Bruh who tf wants to play as a page?
That said, if they wanted a black samurai, I feel like they could have just created a new character. Because what’s the point of using a historically real protagonist if you aren’t going to use their real history?
Then don't come to this reaction channel. I think I can speak for everyone, Blind Wave included, that if this is what you're going to provide for the community then just don't provide it at all. We don't want your grifting youtube side to come over here and we sure as hell don't want ignorant views with no base like "it's racist" filling up the comment section. LEAVE!!
