Do you know of Paris Syndrome?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_syndrome
Basically it's when Japanese people have a romanticized view of Paris/France but they go into shock when they encounter the actual reality (French niggers/Muslims, city thieves, rats, and the smell of piss).
I think Paris Syndrome 2.0 is Assassin's Creed: Shadows.
And I think Paris Syndrome 3.0 is currently developing (the 2024 Paris Olympics).
I noticed that if you go to ACS videos on Ubisoft's official YouTube channel (not Ubisoft Japan), there seems to be a deluge of Japanese commenters lamenting the game, Ubisoft, France and the West in general. From my experience, Japanese YouTube users mainly comment on specifically Japanese videos made or localized for them so for them to enter foreign territory means I think that ACS really was a thorn on the Japanese people's side. Thanks to improvements in translation technology, Japanese (gamers) have been forced to be less insular and are coming into more direct contact with Western (progressive) opinions on Japan/Japanese people/Japanese culture and also learning the typical leftist buzzwords. And they don't like it.
What's funny is that you have English Ubislop supporter speakers (writing in English) in the comment sections replying to Japanese people (writing in Japanese) who are critical of the game. They mainly say 2 things: you're a bot or a general dismissive comment like who cares (about your opinion)/it's just a game/ur racist. And what's funny is other Japanese users replying in Japanese making rebuttals and counter-arguments saying things like "Ubisoft is making a historically accurate game about Japan and you're here telling Japanese their opinions don't matter?" or "the OP is not a bot and is not using AI translations. We Japanese can tell if a Japanese is a bot or a real person"
Have a dig around for some funny interactions between Westerners and Japanese YouTube commenters. Just as an example, here's a recent vid, one on Ubisoft and one on Ubisoft Japan, both with Japanese commenters. Stick with the non-Japan Ubisoft YouTube channel if you want a more diverse commenter crowd.
