@johnnycoolguy9554Ай бұрын
Why they even attempted this shit is beyond me. They lost their chance to put out a solid stealth/samurai game as soon as Ghost of Tsushima dropped. Not only did it respect the culture better and represent the time period in a mostly accurate way, it also gave us a very deep combat system, with unique mechanics, interesting (fictional) characters as well as real characters. Not too mention it also did all of that with some of the best style and graphics this generation. Ubisoft is hamstringing themselves with AC Shadows, because if any of its core mechanics or storytelling isn't up to the same par as GoT, you'll lose fan interest at blinding speed. ESPECIALLY now that Ghost of Yōtei has been announced.

What i hate the most about modern gaming and game companies is as an average consumer when we try to give feedback we are literally just talking to a brick wall. These companies will quite literally NEVER listen to their player base, and it’s so easy for them to just turn off any criticism. Comment section? Just disable it! Getting disliked into oblivion? Just turn of likes and dislikes! Tons of quote retweets? Doesn’t matter, not like there’s an actual human running their social media. They can literally just turn off their ears, and they won’t change until their companies are run into the ground, and in all honesty they probably won’t be, because there will always be the consumers happy to turn off their brain and buy buy buy the next product with a big logo on it. It made me laugh so hard when last year people were talking shit about mwiii “oh this game is terrible stop buying cod” “stop giving cod your money” “stop paying activision for trash” the second the black ops 6 trailer comes out the same people “I can’t wait to play zombies!” “This looks awesome!

@JustSomeKittenwithaGunАй бұрын
They removed the crossbow from the original game for not being authentic. Even though they did exist back then, they felt he wouldn't have been able to find one. They then put tons of work into being historically accurate with settings and characters. Then they slowly went downhill. This was the only saving grace because their mechanics, bugs and 100% achievements are the worst aspects of their games. But now they are making a game about a guy vaguely mentioned in some made up story. Which is funny because all their protagonists are kinda made up, surrounded by actual real people. But they legit said "we need to be woke let's get a black dude, oh look it's authentic!" Biggest clown shoes ever. I can maybe almost accept him, just not in the way they brought him into the game.

15:37 I don't think Muta understands how batsh-t insane Assassin's Creed lore was from the beginning. "The Truth" minigames in ACII and Brotherhood are absolutely BONKERS! The Isu all being this precursor race of super scientists that inspired the religions of the world like Greco-Roman and Norse mythology has also been a thing since ACII. Let me give you an example of how crazy it gets. In the AC Brotherhood "The Truth" minigames, it is revealed that human kind was NOT evolved from apes. And rather, the Templars used a piece of Eden to somehow create a fake homo-erectus skeleton or something for some reason. Humanity was created by the Isu, the precursor race, in their image. BUT, it's also true that in the AC universe that if enough humans believe something, it becomes true. I'm pretty sure in AC Revelations, it's shown that the Isu tried to get humanity to gaslight itself into making a solar flare not happen, but the humans and Isu were too busy warring with each other to make it work. Which the Templars then tried to accomplish with an apple of Eden tied to a SATELLITE! As well as one on the f*cking MOON! And Neil Armstrong put it there! This means that humans both are and are not evolved from apes in Assassin's Creed!

They are basically saying "Meh, black is black, close enough!" This is easily the most out of touch Assassin's Creed game ever. You gotta remember, Ubisoft used to be the company that did such meticulous research on the cultures and geography of their setting that they were able to provide the rebuilders of Notre Dame full schematics of the cathedral that was burned and partially destroyed because nobody else had those detailed plans. They went there and made the plans themselves for one of their games (I think Unity?). Look at AC 2 and all the work that went into that game. After Origins, this new direction became apparent. They don't put as much thought into their story or setting anymore.

It's not disputed anywhere that Yasuke was ever a samurai. It's not even implied anywhere that he was a samurai, it's fiction. I investigated all the primary sources and was lucky enough to even get hold of the original ones for the portuguese ones, and being portuguese myself I managed to accurately translate what was being said. According to these sources, and assuming they refer to Yasuke, he was never stated to be a samurai. We do have an account of possibly him specifically not even being recognized as japanese and being spared from an honorable death which were offered to samurai, he was also never recognized anywhere as a ronin. When akechi captured him he surrendered his sword, and where a samurai would have been provided an honorable death, Akechi spared him because he didnt recognize his status. He spared him and sent him back to the priests. Therefore, in total, we have 0 accounts of him being a samurai and at least one account of him not being recognized by his status by another Japanese warrior. He was not a samurai. And if he was, he certainly would have been a ronin, which he didnt become either.

@EE-iv5ejАй бұрын
Why can't they just make a fictional shinobi/assassin with an African origin, one that is less historical tainting since it doesn't involve a specific real person, in a game with the title of ASSASSIN'S CREED?
@DarkDyllonАй бұрын
Not just that, they could've even made Yasuke as a black samurai and get away with it. the issue is that they constantly were boasting how "historically accurate" they are. If they just from the get go leave out the historical accurate part and do what AC generally does anyway and just blame it on the templars who have slightly altered history or something, this would've never happened. but they first went "historical accurate!" so "we're taking some creative liberty!" to "we're being as historical accurate, but we'll go past the established truth" (basically saying they'll rewrite established history) They went back and forth so many times now that they literally shot themselves with a pistol, then amputated that leg with a shotgun, just to repeat it on the other leg, it's actually insane.

@@DarkDyllon No people would have still complained I promise, you underestimate the racism. If this was about historical accuracy, they would be mad about the COUNTLESS historical inaccuracies stacked sky high in other AC games. Just look at GTA 6 trailer and all the comments it got. It's set in diverse af Florida and yet there was tons of backlash about the black and hispanic presence in the game. I saw white (and asian and black tbh) dudes talking about how they can't wait to unalive the black women NPCs in the game. Just an upsetting culture that's grown worse in the community, and as a female gamer I just stay to myself when I would love to connect with fellow gamers and even date, but the white suprmcy and n cel and red pill culture drives women away - yes even white women, myself and all of my gamer gfs stay away. It's filled with some of the worst prejudice stuff out there. The ironic part is those guys talk about the "chads" but those guys are actually genuinely better company, and feel more safe to be around. It's disappointing.

The funny thing is no, you didn't. They haven't followed a yearly model since 2015. Which ironically hurt them in the end. They wanted to start it with Ezio, and they made him a glorious trilogy. Then they pumped out two games in 2012, and again in 2014. Unity shit the bed but it was patched to acceptability. But when they took off a year for Origins, they changed a lot about the series for the worse, which would bleed through even more in later games. It took them 3 years to make a game that was originally DLC for Valhalla. Where is your yearly game?

Absolutely agree with Mutahar when he says that Assassin's Creed was never meant to be historically accurate. Having played 95% of the entire franchise, I've never really thought it to be anything but sci-fi historical action. I even played through all the education parts of Origins for my 100% completion. That being said, it will always rub me the wrong way when Ubisoft will try to shoehorn a type of character that parts from the mold of the era and tries to convince us that it's normal and real. If it was a unique character they made with his own origin that's well written, such as that of a slave who washes up on the shore of Japan or whatever, I wouldn't give two shits. But to pick a character and make us believe he's real and historically accurate rather than historical adjacent and fictional as they've always been feels wrong. In addition, what's wrong with just having a Japanese lead. What compelled them to think that for the biggest game of their franchise, going to Japan, home to stealth and Ninjas, really the inspiration and foundation for what it means to be Assassins and stealthy, they elected to have one of their protagonists not be Japanese at all is just extremely strange to me. But in Italy we get Italians, Egypt we have Egyptians, England we have Brits, but Japan we don't have that at all. It's just a strange shift that is incredibly difficult to ignore. On top of that, in this era of game development where every single fucking game feels like there's some agenda pieced into it, trying to meet a diversity quota, it really struck a wrong chord at the wrong time, and the hip hop music controversy exploded that beyond compare. Ubisoft needs to stick to their originality and authentic landscapes rather than trying to meet diversity quotas and partitioning their games trying to make as much money as possible while spending as little money as possible on actual development on things like innovation and depth. But they're in too deep. They can redeem themselves greatly by cancelling the game and basically rewriting the story and changing the lead but the amount of money wasted simply won't fly by the investors. They'd rather publish a strange and mid assassin's creed game, trying to make back whatever money they wasted, instead of making a game true to the era yet fun for players and aid their reputation. Let's be honest reputation is something triple A studios like this do not give two shits about. If it ever did, we'd have live service EA games that you don't need to pay yearly for and Ubisoft games that don't cost an arm and a leg to get the full experience.

8:08 Honestly I wouldn’t mind that cause if there’s an Assassin Creed game set in India, then yeah, expect Indian culture infused in. That actually sounds like a solid idea for the franchise.

I think that’s an important distinction.

Lets be honest with ourselves. Ubisoft wanted to make game set in feudal Japan, but couldnt because its a setting difficult to make without upsetting "the activists" (you know, old school japanese folks arent exactly known for acceptance for other cultures). So they decided to dig up some obscure historical figure that happened to be black guy and used his name to essentially deflect people who say that black samurai is just as out of place as AC cobra is in age of empires. Except Yasuke is not a cheat code joke/east egg.
