Japanese fans finally get a game set in japan and the gamers can't even get represented.

Oh and yasuke wasn't even a samurai, he was a squire of sorts.

Not to mention the last two list the wrong protagonists (Kassandra and Woman Eivor are canon).

But I'm sure they don't accept that either, for reasons that are as long-winded as they are idiotically bigoted.

Ofcourse you lot wont have problems with it. You'd play as anyone as long as you dont have to play as an asian man.

But im asian so i have the right to be pissed off.

Of all the previous main playable characters, all were fictional. So why did they dig this real person up? Its because they picked him precisely because hes black and when they get called out for it, they'll have this exact excuse to fall on.

I don't know the specifics of the game, but I assumed the other character accompanying Yasuke was a fictional asian character that you could play.

I really want to be excited about this but it's from Ubisoft. Fuck Ubisoft.

So you're angry you have to play as an Asian female?

I mean, the cutscenes sure look nice I guess.

I imagine the gameplay will just be yet another Assassin's Creed, tho. So not caring yet.

What the fuck are you on about? I play as Asian men in games all the time.

Why do YOU have a problem playing as an Asian woman and a black man?

Fine Ill play as the female Asian ninja but Im not not going to like it.

Odyssey was one of my favorite AC games and I played the original AC games the day they dropped. Didnt care for Valhalla though. Definitely will give this one a look see.
