The amount of armor Yasuke is wearing is absolutely ridiculous. It would be like a European knight walking around town in a jousting suit. I lived in Japan for 16 years and went to some notable museums, never saw anything even close to that level of bombastic excess, even for the really baller daimyo. As for the fighting style, swordplay of that era is revered as a highly sophisticated art of finesse and style. Clonking people like a caveman with a big club is rather insulting.

[@tarbobenjoyer]

bro is just destroying their amors in a few club hits also, it looks so fucking dumb... like actually seeing the armor get torn to pieces; what the fuck are they actually trying to showcase here? plus the whole godlike powers on cooldown that we've had since AC Odyssey, it just looks so bad.

[@squirrelthegamer8483]

If AC Shadows only had that shinobi chick as the protagonist, I guarantee you it would be a much better game. Whole immersion thing aside with being the only black guy in Japanese history but nobody reacting to him like an oddity aside, the whole point of Assassins is that you’re supposed to blend in, be stealthy and agile. That shinobi gameplay looked great with a lot of potential and we already had a samurai game a couple years ago. If they put all their focus on the shinobi game, it would’ve been great! But I guess nothing says modern Assassin’s Creed like armored giants with the subtlety as fucken Kratos when killing people. I want to play as an unsuspecting assassin ninja, doing parkour and sneaking my way through guards or blending into crowds like assassins are meant to be. But no, half the resources of this game is going to the most obvious, attention grabbing guy in all of Japan whose play style will just be a watered down version of Ghost of Tsushima. And trust me, it will be a watered down version of that game because GoT was focused on being a samurai game. It didn’t have half its resources going to a completely conflicting experience. We could’ve just had a pure shinobi stealth game. Something we rarely see nowadays unlike open and bombastic combat shit that is literally everywhere! Fuck Ubisoft. Should’ve just branched off and make a new franchise of rpgs and left Assassin’s Creed as Assassin’s Creed.

[@AzwraithPL]

That Assassin's Creed showing showcased exactly what I knew the problem would be. They want to have their black samurai without dealing with the inconvenient real world implications that would accompany it. This is Sengoku Era Japan; 99.9% of people in this period have never seen or even heard of someone who's black and yet you have the first thing they notice about Yasuke being that he's a samurai-that's not his defining feature and everyone knows it. It's like if you got pulled over by a green Martian in a police uniform and your first reaction was "What's the problem, officer?" instead of "What the hell are you!?". Every single NPC should be stopping to stare and point at him in disbelief and every line of dialogue should revolve around the colour of his skin for it to have any semblance of grounding in reality. I swear you'd get a more noticeable reaction from the locals actually going to rural Japan in 2024 as a black person than Ubisoft's Yasuke is getting in 1582...

[@npcimknot958]

The fact that he's a damn samurai is telling on it's own. Such a great pick for a game series rooted in stealth to play as someone in massive armour that frequently has banners/flags on them to let everyone know who they are. Very subtle. That they didn't just go with a ninja is so stupid it's confusing, assassin ninja vs "templar" samurai trying to take over Japan is such an obvious slam-dunk that they proceeded to fumble as badly as only Ubisoft can.

The problem with Yasuke is not if it was a Samurai or not, is that he has no "Historical Legend" as they are trying to paint. "Maybe, he existed, and was black", that's his whole "history". He achieved nothing, and he only served for over a year. He would have barely learnt the language; he would have never learnt the blade to a decent standard even if given all the chances and resources assuming the best treatment he could've gotten which is almost on the realm of fantasy, the "exotic pet" theory is the most realistic. His only feat was actually shameful. Being branded as "harmless" by Nobunaga's enemies, not deemed worth to kill nor worth to keep, and just shipped back to slavery after that year. In other words, our MC is a historical LOSER!

I am irked because using Yasuke severely limits the scope of Sengoku Jidai we can explore if this the only time we are using Japan. I wanted to see Nobunaga's rise to power from the Battle of Okehazama to the Battle of Nagashino and Hideyoshi reign with the Imjin War and Tokugawa Ieyasu victory at Sekigahara and Siege of Osaka Castle. All events that Yasuke isn't available for. But whatever the damage is done. Y'all can throw Irish William Adams in my face be we all know he was a cheap knock off of Geralt of Rivia and it was made by a Japanese company anyway with pure fantasy horror elements. What's funny is he's English but for some reason they race bend him into being Irish. Like WTF? I am glad the game looks good and I think both gameplay styles are cool. I am just not feeling I am getting what I want with the game and to add the offensive monetization of the game by Ubisoft from the day one DLC and paying at a minimum 110 dollars to play on time it's also has a microtransaction store.

[@alexelric7020]

A lot of modern day conceptions we have about bushido are fantasies the Japanese created to beautify their history. Plenty of Samurai acted “dishonorably” all the time. For instance, many samurai who were rewarded for bringing the heads of their opponents on the battlefield would take the heads off corpses or even innocent people and present it to their lords. That’s the reality of human nature. And anyways, Naoe isn’t a Samurai and would not be expected to act like one.

[@skorne741]

@@alexelric7020 Honoring one's lord is the credo of the samurai, taking the head off a corpse because their master bids it isn't glamorous but it is within the confines of Bushido.
