Yasuke was Nobunaga's pet. Yasuke was a slave from a foreign land which means that he has very little education, 0 combat training, & shattered will. Yasuke was simply unfit to be a samurai, i doubt that he even understood the japanese language very well.
No date for Yotei but there's 3 other games releasing that month which will overshadow AC shadow..... Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, Monster Hunter Wilds and Avowed
It's a setback from financial pov. They've already spent money on it, and now they'll have to spend even more money to fix the one thing fans never wanted. Literally money wasted on obviously dumb ideas. It's pretty much like a Snow White movie, which is already assumed to be one of, if not THE most expensive Disney movie in history.
season passes for single player games should never be a thing.. along with those dumb “deluxe” or gold or ultimate etc.. those shouldn’t exist either.. it should just be.. the game.
Standard Edition is more then enough , most of those Cosmetics etc. you can get eitherway or should be trough playing the Game , Grind etc. not trough paying season pass etc.
@@luckyfire878 aggreed. don’t get me wrong there have been amazing DLC’s before and they take work so if some they have to cost money so be it.. but all this pay this much to get “early access” or get this or that before anyone else does.. should have never became a thing. and by DLC’s i mean REAL DLC’s like the witchers blood and wine or old hunters for blood bourne and etc..
AC: Odyssey's DLCs were 15-20 hours each and were quite good, especially the Atlantis episodes. I wouldn't expect to get those for free so a season pass makes sense.
I refuse to accept ubisoft's lies on what real japanese history is, and will not be giving them any of my time or money again. If they would be honest and admit yasuke was never a real samurai, it would be different. But they have teams editing wikis and britannica pages to actually pass off their fantasy views as having actually happened in real life. Ubisoft has been trying to make a lie become truth, and this is disrespectful to all humans.
nobody was samurai at the time since the system didnt exist it takes about 10 seconds to figure that out, hence the year he lived in is all a-historic, AFTER the time he existed he would be classified as a samuari since a retainer was class that was superseded by another class you could have googled this. the reason why theyre not changing much about the game but improving it is cause they no people like you who are idiots, will babble so they need to make the game better. most viking had brown hair and brown eyes, Valhalla and mirage are also mix of history. they simply want to maximize profit since their games still sold alot but not enough to compete with inflation. if you know nothing about japanese history, as it seems you dont to know samurais didnt exist at all at yasukes time since the system was different, then I think you should shut up lol.
"consumer friendly" my ass. shoehorn in a fake character, claim he's real, fuck up all the worldbuilding and setting, use copyrighted materials, steal artwork. yeah, but now they're being consoomer friendly so its okay dood!!
Sorry, but why the heck is every news channel reporting this as if we didn't know about this ever since the delay was announced? That's why they started with the refunds because the edition contents have been changed and that they removed the 3-days early access.
CANT WAIT 4 THIS GAME!!! I don't care what others say about A.C.Shadows! what I saw in the gameplay made me really impatient to play this game as soon as possible

They thought they could get away with releasing the basic reskinned AC game, but finally realized people are catching on and expect something actually good.
@@spectre2381 I'm 35. Assasins Creed is a single player game that has banked in over a billion dollars. Why are you paying for DLC in season pass form?

Why did they have to choose Yasuke on purpose? Japanese fans and everyone else want a shinobi, why should we play him? This game was the only 1 and best chance to save this company until they found out there was a black dude in Japan
It’s crazy that Ubisoft games are now flopping BEFORE they are release 😅 like I already know I won’t play it because it’s the same game as the last 7 but I guess the majority have caught on
How can people ask for season pass garbage or pre order nonesense the game isnt even out yet man it shows that they dont give a f about the game same with every studio nowadays its disgusting too see dlc trailers for unfinished games
In a world where from software and Sony exist, being Ubisoft is just awful. Nobody needs those things. Absolute assembly line fodder. CDPR and rockstar show how you make open world games with focus on narrative.
Ubisoft is definitely making moves here because they realize its feast or famine time. The grim reaper is at their door. We can all agree the gaming industry has changed and not 100% for the better. Im still going to be here and excited to witness the awesome aspects of it for years to come.
I just believe companies need to keep quiet about what they’re doing and move in silence. In this day in age you just give people MORE things to complain about.
That’s How You know Meta Is Banking on That BatMan Game to Sell More Quest that’s why it’s Free with the purchase of One but barely anyone is gonna buy just for that Game!
An Assassins Creed game set in Japan has been something fans have requested for years. By all accounts it should be one of Ubisoft's easiest sells, and yet, as someone who enjoyed the early Assassin Creed games - there just isn't anything about this game that looks even remotely inspired or interesting, which is an incredible achievement.
Single Player games just need Story or nothing. No Deluxe, No WTF Edition etc. to lead cashgreed. Point. Make it good we buy, go your last years way and GG vs Ghost of Yotei, easy.
Three favorite assassins creeds are assassin Creed 4 ,origins and assassins Creed 3. I found brotherhood revelations and assassins Creed 2 boring 🤷🏻♂️🥱
If they still have their dignity intact, they should just cancel this game entirely and fire all that was involved then hire new creative staff that knows what their doing and not some activist that all can do is complain on everything in this world.
This guy looks like he's studying some PhD in Theoretical Physics and Quantum Mechanics and he's only at IGN because he needs a job for now to pay the bills. 🙂 Edit: Wow I was right. Sort of. His profile is searchable on the Interwebs. Apparently he skipped two grades in school and graduated from high school early. He is currently a student at Santa Monica College and hopes to one day go to USC. At 26, he's even an Actor, Singer and Writer and the Lead Singer for the Band "Skatin Satan". His Future is brighter than my sorry arse thats for sure. 😂😂😂 Hail Satan.
