Culture Assassin's Creed Shadows Is Already Being Called "Woke" And "Disrespectful" - Assassin's Creed Shadows' two protagonists are getting the abuse we all sadly expected.

Assassin's Creed Shadows is already being labeled as "woke" and "disrespectful" following its announcement trailer, primarily due to main characters Naoe and Yasuke, the latter of whom is historically considered Japan's first black samurai.

Ubisoft has finally lifted the lid on the next mainline Assassin's Creed, revealing that Assassin's Creed Shadows will be available on November 15 later this year. While we didn't get any gameplay, we did get a lengthy cinematic trailer going into the backstories of the game's two main protagonists, Naoe and Yasuke. Naoe appears to be a Shinboi from the Japanese provinces, while Yasuke is considered to be Japan's first black samurai, and came into contact with several prominent figures in Japanese history.

That means Assassin's Creed Shadows will center around a woman and a black man, and some people on social media have reacted with exactly the kind of behavior we have come to expect nowadays whenever a protagonist isn't a straight white man. In the replies of Ubisoft's announcement tweet, you don't have to look very hard for people decrying the game as "woke" and "disrespectful", with a sprinkling of DEI in there for good measure.

Assassin's Creed Shadows' Yasuke Is Somehow "Disrespectful" To Japan​

Most of the vitriol revolves around Yasuke, with some people taking issue with the fact that they're being made to play as a black man in a Feudal Japan setting, despite the character being a key figure in Japanese history. Some claim that it's inappropriate for Ubisoft to have someone who isn't native to the country as one of the main characters, though I don't think these same people take issue with the fact that the incredibly Welsh Edward Kenway was sailing around the Carribean in Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag.

You've also got some stating that Yasuke wasn't actually a samurai, but was a retainer to Oda Nobunaga, and that this somehow "disrespects" Japanese culture. However, people are already pointing out Yasuke was Nobunaga's Kosho, which is essentially the bodyguard or personal servant of a general or lord and is considered a samurai in Japanese history. Just because Yasuke didn't belong to a Samurai clan, it doesn't mean he wasn't one.

Also the Japanese/Asian "there were always black people there" begins formally any day now.. It's intentional controversies like this that usually kick off efforts. Soon will have a bunch of pompous western white "academics" telling Japanese how their history and demographics went.

Clown world clowns on!

You're way late as American negresses have been proclaiming and staking ownership over every tanned and dark skinned Japanese and other characters they see as niggers ever since the late 80ies/early 90ies. And they have only gotten worse since than.

I feel so bad for Okinawan people...

They're definitely ignoring that the majority of Japanese players are pissed about this.

 

[Peaches the Wonder Cat]

Sweet Baby, Inc. has done so much damage to the video game industry that they are now using “black samurai killing Japanese people” as an excuse to discrimate and shame White people, while mocking Asian history in the process.

At least the idea of blacks killing Asians is rooted in reality. Maybe there will be a level where the nigger samurai has to fight Koreans firing hwacha from their roofs.

despite the character being a key figure in Japanese history

He was given the name "Yasuke" because his master couldn't care less what his actual name was and was not going to be bothered to learn his language, nor teach him Japanese.

He was Nobunaga's attendant at best and did literally 0 samurai shit. Can this franchise just die already?

I thought it was done for good after Black Flag, yet here it is, in its 17th year, still getting another pointless installment and never wrapping up its story.

Wiki is trying to change history, right now there is a figt going on because people are trying to change that he was a page, into a samurai.

We also have gaming outlets parroting the false history. There were no nigger samurais and there are only 2 battles he has been claimed to be in. 1 doesn't even have a record of him being there and the 2nd there is no evidence of him fighting.

Man it must be a horrible feeling to not have any history of your own to take pride in, so you have to steal everyone else's history to make yourselves feel important. Anyways fuck niggers.

Perhaps people could try having pride in themselves and their own accomplishments instead of things they had nothing to do with based on their innate characteristics. But that's crazy as it would require accomplishing something.

I miss the modern day framing device with nolan north. I would legit take a Desmond simulator where you play as a brain floating in a jar for 20 hours over whatever the series is doing now.

How preposterous. I obviously as a white guy should feel pride in the fact that Edison conned a bunch of faggots out of their patents with his superior IQ, or that Ben Franklin was the inventor of the granny-basket method of fucking old ladies.

Seems that Matt Kim does hate the Japanese.

Isn't that a Korean surname? No wonder the little faggot hates the Japs so much.

They honestly could have made a protagonist in sub-Saharan Africa and it would be more interesting. There’s never been one in the Ass Creed series. Instead, they just take the sloppy seconds of white/Asian people and say “here’s your diversity”. The same with The Little Mermaid and DEI in general.

It tells you that even they have little to no faith in niggers.

Maybe it’s ironically americentric of me, but I feel like most media produced by western countries in current year are so influenced by American culture and mores that it doesn’t make a difference if it’s some french-spewing canuk that writes the slop instead of a Portland dangerhair, it’s still just regurgitated American propaganda.

My Euro bro, all of this post-modernist shit originates in revolutionary France. Ya'll are just as infected with international banking (in fact I'm pretty sure we caught that shit from you guys). The only reason you don't worship niggers is because you are too busy bowing to Islam and embracing state over-reach at every turn. Also the BBC has been a woke mess for a long time now.

I’m actually a red-blooded, flag waving, born and bred American and I thank god every day for that fact. I’ve just seen black(and poor white) populations in European nations move closer and closer to the American nigger in behavior in my life.

America’s chief export is our culture through our movies, music, and fashion, and the smallhats in charge have pushed nigger culture more and more on all fronts. Europe may be historically more gay and liberal than us, but the global push for shit like trannies and shitskin worship 100% stems from our cultural hegemony.

When I think Assassin's Creed, I think romance.
