This has to be one of the biggest fumbles in the game industry. For a whole decade people wanted an AC game set in Japan and Ubisoft had to ruin it.
>>
>>749504425
it shouldn't matter in the first place because AC has always been about historical fiction. The people not wanting yasuke just use historical accuracy as a pretense for them not wanting positive depictions of blacks in media to begin with

I went down this rabbithole and it was funny. Yusuke was made up by one guy who credited himself to sell books, he's as historically accurate as Yakub with a similar story of conception

I agree on the grounds that he would be a cool.NPC and could even be your wise mentor for woke points, but going full woke and make you play as the (flimsy) historical figure was a massive wasted opportunity and the game's main sin.
Nobody complained about Nioh's Yasuke.

>entire "evidence" of yasuke being a samauri comes from litterally one source who was revealed to be signal boosting himself on a Wikipedia article he wrote

Probably the funniest "oh yeah that happened" event, along with Hulk Hogan taking down an entire media empire and inadvertently starting the decline of American news media

1) No one really knows.
2) But probably not.
3) Doesn't matter because assassin's creed protagonists are always foreigners.
4) Although making the protagonist of AC:Japan a black man is definitely not what most people expected. It was likely intentional to generate controversy around the game.
5) Even then, you shouldn't hate the game just because the protagonist's skin color isn't similar to yours.

I think I covered all important points here.

Yasuke was actually over 8 foot tall, gigaroided, used to be used by the Spaniards to haul crates and masonry stone that would require 4+ people to carry. He was witnessed in one battle ripping a tree out of the ground to use as an improvised weapon after breaking his club smashing through a fortress wall and was often mistaken as a vengeful yokai of destruction.
>>
>>749504425
Wasn't the so-called "expert" on Yasuke just a guy literally quoting his own posts he made on other sites?
>>
>>749505045
What is not said enough is that nobunaga really fucking hated the samauri class and did shit like having tea ceremonies and elevating randoms like hideyoshi just to piss them off. He also had many issues with Buddhist monks and constantly held discussions with the Portuguese on everything from guns to the world.

kids don't have enough reference points in life to understand better.
"woke" is a feeling of misrepresented reality, which is why person A with enough life experience may recognize something as woke while person B won't recognize it as woke.
it is common for person A to be younger than person B however it may not always be the case if person A is sheltered and don't get out so much. then he won't have enough reference points to determine that something is in fact a misrepresentation of reality (woke).

By the way, the "big black cock" legend was a roman psyop, it was meant to depict black people as closer to beasts than humans (romans were obsessed with dicks, symbol of life kinda shit)

Trust the incels obviously. You shouldn't believe many so-called "experts" because they are a bunch of subversive political hacks trying to push an agenda. I don't see how any rational sane person could look at what happened with Yasuke and trust what you're told about a lot of things really.

>"woke" is a feeling of misrepresented reality
Pretty much and this is exactly why people who say San Andreas would be considered woke nowadays are purposely misrepresenting the point.
You will never see a black person acting like a nigger in woke media, they're always good hearted characters that excel at everything. It's deliberately misrepresenting them to reshape your worldview.

Shincho Koki, Nobunaga gave him a house and servants and a ceremonial sword. If you want to get into the nitty gritty about him fighting and whatnot then no, I don't believe all of that extra shit but it's a safe claim that he held the title. What the title is worth is its own conversation.

I'm not a taxonomist, but I am an autist and in my expert opinion any two animals that can produce fertile offspring should be the same species, and all else should be defined as subspecies, including human ethnic groups

What's hilarious is that there ARE some left wing people who are self aware enough to recognize this pandering and find it insulting.
The thing is that most left wing people are not really people who think about politics, they just follow others.

What she neglects to consider is the population bottleneck we had only around 15,000 years ago.
