People are really hating on this game because you play as a black guy and a woman. And also because they think it’s weird that a black guy is the main character in a game about Japan, and I think people think that Ubisoft is trying to be politically correct. But, both of the characters are based on real people during the war between the samurai and the Shinobi. I highly recommend looking up Yasuke and Oda Nobunaga. Yasuke was an African slave brought to Japan by Portuguese missionaries, and he started to serve Oda and became a samurai and helped Oda bring down the Shinobi. Unlike previous assassin‘s Creed games, I think you can switch between the male and the female character, because they have completely different stories and gameplay styles. Yasuke is more of the brute and guns blazing type character. And Naoe is based off of a real person, who came from a family of Shinobi ninjas. So she’s gonna be more the stealth type gameplay. Also, if you like this, I really consider checking out ghost of Tsushima
I don't think people are hating on the female character, people seem to love her, and most i guess will play as her. Because we have had video games with female protagonists for a long time now, so really no reason to hate on her, I think it's just about the guy being black in feudal Japan, but honestly why do people even care? Just play the game , I just care about the game being good, nothing else
The game creator asked the Japanese why they were unhappy. I ask those who are watching the comments: Wouldn't you be unhappy if people said, "Dr. King was able to carry out his cause only because of the help of brave white people, and he could never have done it alone"? Let me put it another way: "Thomas Edison was an incompetent who couldn't have invented anything without stealing ideas from black people. This is a historical fact." If it had been promoted as a completely fictional story, it would have been accepted. The problem is the arrogance of trampling on the history of other countries and other races.
Odyssey wouldn't be a bad place to start in the series honestly, considering the game's story is actually the first chronologically. Well, the modern-day stuff isn't and could be a bit confusing, but no one really cares about the modern-day stuff after AC3 anyway lol. Edit: Regarding the cost of games, totally agree! But for most of the AC games, especially any before Mirage and Valhalla, you can get them for pretty cheap when they're on sale which they often are :)
I'm so in on this game! I also played Mirage recently as my first AC game and I loved it. Also strongly considering Origins next because it looks/sounds amazing.
Play the old ones you will love it But if you wanna play graphically great game then play origin of egypt, odyssey of greek and valhalla of norway and england
@@abhishekroy7722 i played every game from ac 2 to ac valhalla and my favourite is ac 3, black flag, rogue and unity in true assassin kind But i like rpg more because the games are long and there are so much side activities and favourite is ac odyssey. What about you
*if Shadows can capture the open world activity of Valhalla in a smaller more dynamic Mirage size world, it will be a Great game 👍 a Territory or Turf War mechanic would be a VERY wise feature to add* 👌
God i hope the world isn't as small mirage, breaks the immersion, I just saw the world trailer, and man the game looks drop dead gorgeous, so IDC if it won't be jam packed with things to do, I just wanna look at the scenery, and only a big open world can do that ... Honestly the size of origins imo is the best
If you don’t wanna play the whole franchise. I think Origins is a good entry point if you don’t care about the lore that is established in the older games. And from there you could go on to Odyssey and Valhalla. But the best games imo are all before Origins. They all have something special about them. Either it is the characters, the locations, the story, the score or a combination of it all. Playing everything before Shadows releases is impossible I think. But I would recommend playing it all eventually.
I heard that you play as one or the other. Players choose who and when they play as either character for their preferred play style. Character introduction is probably the only time the game makes you play as both to feel out how they work.
this game has been refused and avoided in Japan, because it is against the japanese history. From 7th century till to the time of the second world war (1945 year), no black people to japan. And warrior as one special class - nobility in japan, not allowing people whose background not from the class to be as the warrior. The game honestly insulted japan.
I just love how you think that this is a REAL PROBLEM....😂😂 bruhhhh.... It's just a video game.... There are way bigger real life problems in the world that people should be focusing on instead of political correctness of a fucking video game ... We play games to relax and have fun, don't care if it's pc or not ...
Here is a true question, How many characters in Assassin's Creed (AC 1 through AC Valhalla) were playable and if any of them were true historical people from the past? The ANSWER is very simple, "None." All the "playable" characters in AC 1 through AC Valhalla were all fictional characters, Yasuke was a real historical person who was nothing more than a retainer, not a samurai. Yasuke IS A REAL HISTORICAL BLACK MAN WHO WAS NOTHING BUT A RETAINER FOR Oda Nobunaga! "Real Historical Person," Yasuke was and is but a "Retainer." The other Assassin's Creed characters from Assassin's Creed 1 through Assassin's Creed Valhalla are "Fictional," characters that DO NOT EXIST IN ACTUAL HISTORY. Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad (Fictional Character), Ezio Auditore da Firenze (Fictional Character), Captain Edward James Kenway (Fictional Character), Adéwalé (Fictional Character), Aveline de Grandpré (Fictional Character), Bayek of Siwa (Fictional Character), Alexios and Kassandra (Fictional Characters), Basim Ibn Ishaq (Fictional Character), and others that are not based in our past historical history. That is why I always stated to other people that 80% is Fact because of True History for Assassin's Creed Video Games, then there is the 20% Fiction that has "People", Places, Items, and other things that are in the game, are not in our past history. Yasuke "IS A TRUE HISTORICAL PERSON IN JAPAN," NOT A FICTIONAL CHARACTER, you can say, "fantasy," all you want but we all know that Yasuke is a real black man who was a retainer, not trained to use the katana, he cleaned Nobunaga's Katana's and other weapons that is what a retainer does. Sorry to say in true historical words and more true blunt historical words Yasuke was a retainer meaning he was a servant to Oda Nobunaga. Not my words but in actual dictionary definitions, Retainer is a person attached or owing service to a household especially a: SERVANT or b: EMPLOYEE. There’s discrepancies in Japanese history about Yasuke and we don’t know he was a retainer or a samurai that was trained. There is basically no actual documentation except for a few stories, but stories can change over time because of different perspectives, different things happening different mindset. Just like for example, that if you say something from a long time ago by word-of-mouth, then someone says it in a different word or words than that word-of-mouth or whatever you said can be different. And we cannot forget about WWII that many things could’ve been lost because of the war, and we may never know from certain items to certain documentations were burnt or been completely annihilated because of the two bombs, but we don’t know. I’m not saying that this can be a true story or not but all we know that he was nothing more than a retainer and that is it. I am sorry to say, but until there is actual more evidence like where is Yasuke Katana sword? Where is it? Does anyone know? Because if you have that sword and it has his name on it and approves that he was a samurai, but in the end, no sword, no proof that he was a samurai. Both Greed and WOKE is the message and agenda on both UBISOFT and Sweet Baby Inc. and Black Gamer Girls, and DEI Money. There is no story or the Hero's Journey in this game. Assassin's Creed is just now a "Shadow Shell," of itself and an empty husk. You know if only the Baka writer read Japanese History a lot closer than instead of 2 characters to play, there could be only 1 character to play. There was an opportunity they could have used instead of a fictional black samurai character and in real history he was a retainer not a samurai. If only they read Japanese history carefully and throughly they could have made the only one Japanese Female Assassin Character. Combined both true history and fiction, Japanese women at the time did learn to use a particular weapon called, "Naginata," a Polearm weapon with a curved blade at the top. While the katana sword tends to be associated with male samurai of Japan, a distinctive weapon called the naginata has been traditionally associated with women and female fighters known as onna-bugeisha. This could have been the base of a Japanese Assassin's Creed Story, with a Japanese Woman who learned to use the Naginata and eventually learns the way of the Assassin's Brotherhood. Do you know why they don’t want to make a game based in Africa, especially in Assassin’s Creed well because in actual history, many of the warring tribes enslaved their own kind. In about 90% or even 80% of the black population of today, don’t want to admit that their own kind in Africa, their own ancestors in Africa enslaved their own kind. This is why they don’t want to make any Assassin’s Creed games based in Africa. I know they already did Egypt, but I am talking other African countries or places in Africa other than Egypt like South Africa, Algeria, Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, and the other 48 African countries.

The club Yasuke was holding is most likely a Kanabo.

You play as both, Yasuke more brute force and Naoi more stealth focused, I'm not sure if certain missions are locked to one character
I thank you for making this videos you are a Amazing cool person
