Yasuke was a real guy. Rascists are once again mad that reality exists and proves them wrong.

Ah but the samurai council did not grant him the rank of samurai in real life. 
He was merely an armed retainer, not a samurai.
Ignore that samurai literally means retainer, that is entirely irrelevant.
He was granted a seat at the samurai council, but they did not grant him the title of samurai 
Yasuke was made up by the shogun who was being controlled by the jews.
Game set in the Caribbean? Play as a welshman.
They are saying the quiet part out loud!
Also wasn't a big chunk of AC Valhalla playing as a Norse invader in England? Idk that game was so dog shit I couldn't get past that chapter.
The english had it coming, what with being english and all
For me, the magic sauce missing from Valhalla was the sense of living in and seeing an ancient civilization we'll never see again.
I could still stomp around in an English bog now and it probably wouldn't look all that different
Almost all of Valhalla was in England, because you're operating as a raiding party. That's the entire framing device. These people don't even play the games that they're losing their minds about.
not a large portion of it, almost all of it
they are saying what part out loud?
I know the twitter guy is racist and hating the fact that Yasuke is the protagonist, but what does that sentence even mean
If the Japanese game has a protagonist who is Japanese, then maybe it's that White Nationalist slogan of "Germany for the Germans", "Japan for the Japanese", and so on? That typical anti-internationalist, anti-miscegenation position.
I mean that's what the twitter nazi is about, but it doesn't make sense in the tweet's context: he implies that ubisoft is saying something out loud and I just don't get it
I think there's some nonsense going around that, I don't know, "Big Woke"? doesn't like Japan because Japanese developers are still based and boob-pilled. I mean it's confused and asinine and a game of loosely associating whatever shit is in front of you, but I think that's the underlying stuff. They won't let you play as a Japanese man because Japan isn't woke enough, which makes them racist and hypocrites. If I had to guess why they can rationalize being able to play as Norse, for instance, which probably isn't woke, it's probably because Japanese vs. Western devs is a sort of current issue for these gamergooners, so the choice to make the protagonist a Black man instead of Japanese can be contextualized into this ongoing struggle. Which is like, double fucking nonsense because the decision was probably made years ago.
damn, I am way out of the loop
thanks for the primer, comrade
I honestly think the simplest answer if he’s doing what right wingers do sometimes which is appropriate a common left critique of the right but without any of its context that makes it make sense bc they’re baby brained dipshits that can’t understand they’re trying to force a square peg in a round hole. I see them do it all the time
Isn't the ninja Japanese?
But she's a woman, which is horrifying
You'll notice they said:
game set in greece, play as a greek man
True sickos out there playing as Alexios and not Kassandra.
Especially since Kassandra is the Canon protagonist
Combining misogyny and anti-blackness! 
I thought gamers liked it when there are hot Japanese women in their games
Hell, hot Japanese ninja women are a trope all by themselves.
Is he... Is he accusing Ubisoft of being Hoteps who think that samurai were black? Truly a bizzare thing to say.
I will buy an Assassin's Creed game for the first time in over a decade if the ultimate villain/leader of the templars is revealed to be Yakub
Close, in the last game it was revealed the founder of the Templar Order was none other than......

Alfred the Great, dun, dun, DUUN! Mr. King Anglo-Saxon himself

wtf is DEI?
Oh, ok, I was under the impression that DEI was some cringeworthy new slang for angry gamers to use as criticism.
It kind of is tho. Right wing weirdos are using it negatively the same way they use woke.
Oh your right-wing spidey sense is functioning correctly. DEI is the new right wing dog whistle.
1980s- Commie
1990s- Politically Correct
2000s- SJW
2010s- Woke
2020s- DEI
Can we please go back to commie
No way SJW is 2000s, it is more like 2012-2016 or so, then it's "woke" up until like 2022, "DEI" as a scarecrow is 2 years old tops.

I wish these people would 
for once in their pathetic lives
I don’t think he’s even the main character. The main character is the female ninja which gamers seem to also foam at the mouth. But I guess ninjas are historically accurate now. If you look in the trailer comments, you’ll see a bunch of losers who are declaring their courageous refusal to pre order a shitty game because of muh diversity
I’m curious if anyone’s ever studied the weird Madonna-whore complex that gamers have. I don’t even know if you can classify it as that, because MWC usually involves putting someone on a pedestal but gamers will freak out about one game not having hot girls then in the very next game decry the game for having hot girls. I don’t get it.
