Theory of Yasuke being a samutai is laughable the Japanese Wikipedia reads: また、金子拓によると、『信長公記』の筆者である太田牛一末裔の加賀大田家に伝わった自筆本の写しと推測される写本（尊経閣文庫所蔵）には、この黒人・弥助が住処（部屋）と扶持（食べ物）を与えられ、道具持ちをしていたという記述があるという[12]。 He had food, a place to sleep, and had the job of carrying tools. From the Japanese Wikipedia: According to Kaneko Taku, this is a description of Yasuke from a copy of a manuscript believed to be handwritten by Oda Ushikichi, the author of "Nobunaga Koki," passed down to the Kaga Oda family. This manuscript is stored in the Sonkeikaku Library (尊経閣文庫, Sonkeikaku bunko) (I couldn't find anything about an actual private house, much less a estate) Samurais were very high-ranking and had their own estates, so this doesn't look like much of a samurai treatment to me. Even if there were poorer samurai (though he couldn't be a rönin because those were lordless samurai, and he was Nobunaga's servant) his description is much more in line with his actual job of just carrying tools or the swords, as some say. Also we can find this: 家臣に、弥助をどう処分するかを聞かれた光秀は、「黒奴は動物で何も知らず、また日本人でもない故、これを殺さず」として処刑させずに "Luís Fróis's Annual Report on Japan" That translates to: When Mitsuhide was asked by his vassal how he would dispose of Yasuke, he did not have him executed, saying, ``The black guy is an animal, he knows nothing, and he is not Japanese, so I will not kill him.'' That is not something you would say about an enemy samurai. Lastly, Yasuke was with Nobunaga for barely 15 months; that's no time to earn the respect a samurai needs. That's barely enough time to learn how to speak Japanese.

Correction, "Get used to not owning money."

Sorry but the reaction to the black Samurai was totally racist

@@michalandrejmolnar3715 Depends on which reaction.

Exactly

Crazy how I just seen the e cover art for the game and though assassins creed in Japan might be interesting. Then open up KZfaq to see this.

exactly 👍

Dropping tiers for games is annoying , even stalker 2 has tiers but the difference is that stalker 2 base edition is 60 bucks and the ultimate is 110 which is still not cheap but better than the Ubisoft slop imo

​@@Tax-ro2wgit is fun seeing people defend one game ripping you off because it's not the one everybody always shits on. Even tho, they're doing the exact same thing. 😂

And also you don't know if you can finish a Assassin Creed game in just a month, because they are so loaded with unnecessary side quests, experience grinding... Valhalla I think takes 200 hours to finish lol, so unnecessary, you are not Persona 5 or Xenoblade nor do you have the same content and story length as such a game. Plus you might forget to cancel your subscription what happens way too often and they absolutely count on that.

20 dollars a month. No thank you. People at the Chinese restaurant pay $20 just for a plate to go.

Weirdo's

I know I'm not anymore, my last ubisoft game I can remember was immortals phoenix rising

weird people and them ubi shills

Only on deep sale.

Not me. Especially since the Crew debacle, I have boycotted UBISOFT newer titles and their overall business experience.

They can remove it because subscription is basically a rent. You don't own those games as they already stated, you just rent their service. Subscription is not equal to owning anything.

This right here. This is a way more tangible reason to hate ubisoft's guts.

yep

More importantly, they listen to your mic & report you to the police for hate speech.

​@@Cincy32Wow

And this is EXACTLY why I play and support Indie games and almost never play AAA games(Sonic, Bayonetta and Kirby are the exception).This is just ridiculous, Instead of just making good games that can bring in not only the money, But a good reputation and loyalty from consumers, Most of the gaming industry screw over their customers because of greed. It's sad.

Nah in my opinion it died when Unity came out in the absolute broken mess that it was.

That's how the cookie crumbles. All that Franks was just for a crappie golden yacht. That can barely go somewhere. Let alone having a weapon system to fend off the pirates. Which the golden yachts lack of.

Game dev industry the past 10ish years has been full of these weirdos that hold revisionist views very departed from reality. Very overtly leftist. They gravitate to work in the games industry specifically.

Ikr, yet I see so many idiots defending Yasuke as MC. The game is just DEI pandering, and the people supporting the game don't know they've secretly been infected with the DEI trash. Western game companies have no respect for cultures around the world, they will continually attempt to spread DEI everywhere.

What? In Japan the reception is crazy good. The west has brainwashed idiot gamers that see an issue with a character that is actually in text books in Japanese schools, and so distinct that he in all over their folklore in many capacities. They also have equal representation not just for a cool figure in their history, but a Japanese woman as well. Pretending this is a woke issue, when there are so many real other ones, is crazy as hell. Just say your sexist bro and you didn’t care for representation for Japanese you just don’t like a black man regardless of relevance in Japan culture and history. You also have ghost of Tsushima for a Japanese man so tackling a different figure it’s really cool. Only the west is complaining. Half of them just saw black man and know nothing else like you I see

@@lionzcrown1702 nice gaslight, but it doesn't work. Japanese are also upset about having Yasuke instead of a native Japanese samurai. you know why? cause Yasuke was not a samurai. he didn't fight in wars, etc. he was just holding the weapons of Oda Nobunaga.

They aren't defending the game. They're defending their cult.

Some of us like the games and are not gonna bitch about every little thing we don't like. $130 I'm not gonna cry about it, I just won't get that edition. Time to get out of your feelings people. You could see a Mosquito out in a cold environment on a video game and yall would find a way to cry about it.

Yeah, I should be comfortable not owning what I played for 10/10 Logic Ubisoft

who is excited for this game? they are making a mockery of Japanese history with all the figures they could use as a character instead as well as the absolutely terrible architecture that is mostly Chinese and not Japanese, weird paper lanterns all over for the time period, and torii gates all over the place instead of where they are supposed to be.

​@@phantomthunder203Bro is a game, they made a game they think will sell well. Other than that, as long as the game is good, who cares. I'm done expecting historical accuracy, from the entertainment industry as a whole.

Either the black samurai or the Portuguese sailer was going to introduce the order to japan. Take your pick

He Blamurai Black

Even a handler is debatable, more like Nobunaga' big black slave he liked to parade around.

​@@wangchung2157little racist can't help yourself, yea.

@juliox9 Yeah, ubisoft is really playing him up. Why him being a main protagonist is dumb. He should mentor the girl and just use his friendship to get info on the targets for her.

how do you feel about Nioh? Or is your outrage selective?

@@shawnsanders3636nice try clown but that was made by a Japanese team, they can do whatever they want with their history. Speaking of there is actually plenty of evidence that the white guy, held land and titles and was a real samurai. Where you have woke losers at google, wiki re writing another country’s history for one black guy.

@@shawnsanders3636 I think that’s stupid too.

@@deraykrause4517 respect

@@shawnsanders3636 protagonist of AC games: in Italy-Italian, in London-Londoner, in Middle East-Middle Eastern, in Greece-Greek. notice the pattern? AC in Japan-black. why??? you know/can guess why. if you can't, it's your problem.

Well thats not how that works. Yasuke is only in the one game, people have already made fun of them for pricing Outlaws this way. The only way there will be successful deflecting is if people actually believe it.

Because yall use race to make an excuse as to why the game is trash. AC beeeeeen trash, never knew so many still cared about AC (yall dont)

That reminds me of Disney in this current day and age with their blatant schemes.

and we should label Ubisoft as cultural appropriators cause changing the story of Yasuke to make him a samurai is legit cultural appropriation cause Yasuke was not a samurai. he was holding the weapons of Oda Nobunaga. he wasn't a badass samurai but like the waterboy in sports.

@@SapiaNt0mata You do realize it was never historical? Its historical fiction. As in altered history, There was never an apple of Eden, the threat of templars is used to make antagonists for the protagonist and George Washington never became the KING of AMERICA. Kind of telling on this one honestly. Its never been accurate, its always been fictional.

yep

You need internet to download a digital game?! When did this evil company start requiring THAT?!

@@TheJohhnyE Even on a physical edition?

To be fair, GoT is already AC in Japan.

​@@COUNTVLAIDMIRyes! Even on psychical media! So it'll still be a dead paper weight once servers shut down

yep, he should be a side character at best.

Even then, they gender-swapped the other protagonist with the actual person, who was a man. Ubisoft simply couldn't help themselves.

@distortedsoul27 personally I don't mind having a female protagonist that much but there should have been a male Japanese protagonist not a distorted history of a real person

That means that you actually do want to play the game. You want to play it but are not willing to pay for it. You're a leech. The joke is you.

He is becoming the number.

It is not the games...its the internet, thats whats wrong

​@@miguelgomes7536I honestly agree

​@miguelgomes7536 its both game companies have become more greedy with mtx, tiers, cut content for dlc, etc this is why I play wayy more older games than new. I've had more fun playing my n64/ps1 than my ps5 series s

I won't pay for MTX or early access but I'm ok with the base game and a game having a season/expansion pass.

You get ads? I use ad blocker.

But, chud didn't you want a AC set in Japan, where you play a black man killing japanese men????

Ubisoft should get comfortable not owning a publishing company lol

Was a great samurai. Do your research fool. But I get it. You only want Tom Cruise as your Samurai 😂😂😂😂😂

@@c4skilz Yasuke was a retainer, not a samurai.

@overdrivedrinker8284 He was a retainer that became one of the greatest Samurai a Japan history. He is in their history books and have a statue of him. Try researching from real sources, instead of Wikipedia lying ass. 🤣🤣

AC died when Desmond Miles died

Wikipedia is never credible so there's that

We have always been at war with East Asia

Wow trying to hide the truth 😂 but why some American Japanese claim he was samurai ! Hmmm maybe they're paid by ubisoft or baby inc too idk 😂 can't trust no body these days lot of fake people and news and even history .. Anyway i will never buy ubisoft games and like alex said the series ended in ezio trilogy ..

The problem is anyone actually trusts Wikipedia as a reliable source. Remember when English teachers used to tell their students not to use Wikipedia as a source as it was not trustworthy and would deduct points on assignments if they used Wikipedia? This ongoing war to change Yasuke's history on Wikipedia is exactly why.

Assassin's creed games have been getting super grindy with MTX. It wouldn't surprise me if the game takes 100 hours to "speedrun" the story.

​@@peternash7104that's not true at all. 😂

U think only Ubisoft does this? No all companies are doing this, u own anything on Fortnite, cod, Spiderman, god of war and Mario and etc, u don’t own anything even if u pay full price coz any game will eventually ends their updates and active live service by pulling the plug to a console or a game

@@WWEmaniac I guess pirating games isn't illegal, if buying isn't owning.

Ubi might get away with doing that sort of stuff with their own games, but not Star Wars Outlaws. They try anything like that, Disney and LucasFilm are likely to step in just like they did with EA Battlefront 2. Not defending either company, just pointing that out.

​@@DeadPhoenix86DPYou have never owned the games when you bought them. You only owned a license.

@@xmusic2049 I can still play all my PS2 games I bought 20 years ago. No internet connection required either. Companies cannot take them away either. I Bought them, they're mine now.

money.

Ubisoft CEO "gamers need to get used to NOT owning the games they buy" your wrong 😂

And don't forget they want ads in game! And it online only .EA suck but ubi is the worst now!

​@@jrs2071Ads have been in games for decades

​@@jrs2071why is that wrong? PC gamers don't own the games they buy.. Everybody ignores that for some reason. And there's some context left out of that clickbait headline everybody is repeating. I don't want to spoil it, just go see for yourself.

That's what they want. Buy the sub and don't own the game.

Thats the joke

@OhNoItsAlexx Don't worry I got it. I'm dense but I'm not fanboy dense
