They basically made a watered down copy of Ghost of Tsushima

Funny thing is, this game is almost contemporary with Ezio's era in Italy, maybe slightly afterwards.

@Jaanikins Ай бұрын

And yet the Ezio trilogy was made in a time when Ubisoft cared about making great stories than making crap like this.

私もはじめは町の様子は良く描けてると思ったんですが、何度も見ているうちに沢山の「？」が浮かんできました。見知らぬデザインの唐傘、民家の縁側に木製の階段、数え始めると切りがない。蔵に入りきらず、路上に大量に無造作に食べ物が転がっていて「生活が苦しい」？そもそも誰も着物を着ているように見えない。股引はまだ普及してないはず。 Ghost of Tsushimaでは一切突っ込む気は無かったのに。

Love your knowledge. As far as her stealth 🥷 and “magic” abilities that is just apart of the video game. All the Assassin’s Creed games have that game play such as Mirage, Unity, Black Flag. Ghost of Tsushima has it as well the Batman Arkham has that game play where you can see where your enemies are located. All of the Assassin’s Creed video games are loosely historical based and at the end of the day, it’s just an entertainment video game. Except the characters to do superhuman things

I honestly think if you spent some time watching the older games as far back as 2007-2012, you would get greater context as to why the games are the way they are today. I would love to talk to you about it even further with you if you wanted. The games are meant to be still somewhat grounded in history but with a slight deviation into science fiction being misinterpreted as mysticism and spirituality. By the way, the Assassins in this game are meant to be the good side, fighting against the Templars who are the bad side, but the very first game was having you engage in political and moral conversations and made you question if the Assassins were truly good or bad and if the Templars were in fact the correct ones all along. It's only in today's version of the games that it's lacking nuance and substance that we have this crap before us.

This game doesn't have a single famous "永楽通宝" "Eiraku Tsuho" banner used by the Oda clan. In Japan, rather than focusing on racial differences, many people laugh at UBI because it often fails to research simple Japanese customs. Many people enjoy this game as a spot-the-mistake game without getting angry at UBI. UBI must be embarrassed that it was discovered that they didn't do their research properly, so please don't be mad at UBI and tell everyone that they should just think of it as a game "to be isekai'd" into a strange Japanese world and enjoy it. It would have been interesting if UBI had referenced the theory that the shadow clan, the Hata clan, might be Israelites and incorporated the idea that the Hata clan brought Israelites to Japan into the game’s story, connecting it to Assassin's Creed 1. It’s a missed opportunity for UBI. By the way, it's possible that "山科勝成," Katsunari Yamashina, a samurai warlord of Japan’s Sengoku period, might have been Roman. so let's all investigate that!

I have a Question... but should this game Implement Mythological elements? I have one of your books, the dark side of Japan and I realize the rituals and Magic were Quite important to the Japanese, I suppose what I mean is that do you think they should add these rituals to the game?

@Jaanikins Ай бұрын

It depends on what you mean by mythological elements. If you mean by witnessing or engaging with people in the game in conducting rituals and forms of prayer to showcase their spiritual belief system, that would make sense as the games are meant to be grounded in history with only a slight deviation into science-fiction. There are references in the older games that mystical things would appear before you, but it is firmly established that they aren't real and that they are simply illusions created by "pieces of eden" (mind controlling technology). Mythological elements would have to be incorporated in a symbolic fashion rather than a literal fashion.

I am sorry, but if an armed man over 6 foot rides by you, you are going to bow. Especially since bowing was relatively normal back then, and actually is still a greeting in Japan.

@@EcceHomo1088 Someone who is at minimum a sword bearer for Oda Nobunaga would absolutely be bowed to. The peasants would risk severe punishment including death if they refused to do so. Plus you have to consider that realistically the situation where you would be most likely to encounter Yasuke if you are some random peasant is if he is WITH Oda Nobunaga. You can imagine not bowing to your overlord has even worse connotations. People have been killed for less in feudal Japan.

@Jaanikins Ай бұрын

He hasn’t even addressed it yet, perhaps if you gave him a chance maybe he would. But this doesn’t excuse you, if it’s not accurate, it’s not accurate, that’s a fact. Mind you I wouldn’t be against playing a game about Yasuke, it just depends if the game is trying to be accurate or not. You ever heard of the game Nioh, you play as William Adams and you get to fight Yasuke as a boss. It would be cool to have a game like that where you play as Yasuke as well. Both ideas are cool.
