Honestly, at this point Ubisoft can simply go full-on troll mode and butcher more of the Japanese history just for the lulz. I don't think it's possible to piss off everyone more than they already did, but they can at least make their inevitable downfall even more entertaining to watch.
Considering how the Japs love to butcher their own history, to say nothing of history they have no connection to whatsoever, this seems like the appropriate response.

Go full "Assassin's Creed: Unit 731"
They're entitled to present their history however they desire, for it is theirs to do so. Foreigners have no such free reign, and should fuck off.
So we're in agreement that Japs should not be allowed to deface Western history by turning everyone into underaged girls either.
Wouldn't know, I'm not a Westerner and I don't care about your history.
Personal preference wasn't part of the argument.
Rules for thee but not for me is a rather Semitic attitude.
Maxie, like all weebs, deifies the japanese and will come up with some excuse for them no matter what they do. Like the whiggers or commie rusaboos of ye olden times, anything he says about them is ultimately a religious feeling looking for a rationalization.

And yes, I agree that games like Odin Sphere are proof that whites don't owe the japanese any respect. They're not our kind and we're free to ridicule them, the same as all the other non-whites.

While I'm by no means a fan of sjwsoft and their campaign to niggerwash all of history, a) it's not my history that's being attacked this time and b) remember that Maxie's kind used to seethe at children's anime dubs taking out the san, kun, and sensei, and changing the characters' names from chingochongochingo into something their target audience can pronounce. There's no appeasing them. Between sjws and weebs, neither side is in the right.
Vlajdermen, like all teens, demonizes the japanese and will come up with some reason to hate them no matter what they do. Like the channers or edgelord westaboos of ye olden times, anything he says about them is ultimately a jealous feeling looking for validation.

And yes, I agree that games like Assassin's Creed are proof that human beings don't owe westerners any respect. They're not our kind and we're free to ridicule them, the same as all the other subhumans.

While I'm by no means a fan of rpgcodex and their campaign to westwash all of gaming, a) it's not a good game that's being attacked this time and b) remember that Vlajd's kind used to seethe at children's anime subs leaving in the san, kun, and sensei, and keeping the characters' names as chingochongochingo instead of something their retarded mouths can pronounce. There's no appeasing them. Between dumbfucks and retards, neither side is in the right.

No stopping this choo-choo train...

PureArts is back as they are firing up the Animus once again with a brand set of collectibles for Assassin's Creed Shadows.

[Emphasis added]

Yasuke, the historical African samurai, has been reimagined as a main protagonist in the upcoming Ubisoft game. Set in feudal Japan, Yasuke is based on the real-life figure who served under Oda Nobunaga. In the game, he is depicted as a powerful warrior navigating the political chaos of the late Sengoku period. Unlike traditional assassins, Yasuke is more of an up-close and personal fighter with direct combat, wielding brute strength and heavy weaponry.
PureArts is now bringing the Assassin's Creed Shadows Yasuke legend to life with an impressive 11" tall statue. He is depicted in his default armor from the game as he draws his katana on a tenshu rooftop. Tons of intricate detail is featured throughout his armor, and PureArts has even added LED elements to the diorama as you sync yourself into the past. The Animus awaits this release, with Shadows Naoe also coming soon, with pre-orders already going live for $119 with a Q4 2025 release.

My local source confirms:The Itate Hyozu Jinja shrine in Japan has filed a formal request to Ubisoft, asking them to remove the entire religious site from Assassin's Creed Shadows.
My source tells me the temple leaders are very upset at the use of their shrine and the ability to destroy the interior.
The temple joins a long list of Japan gaffes that have plagued the game, such as the unauthorized use of the Sekigahara Rifle Corp banner in the Art Book concept art.
Assassin's Creed Shadows loudly touted the sensitivity and research that went into the game, hiring several...shall we say...questionable historians to consult on the title.
It has been an unmitigated disaster so far and Japan is not happy.

Pretty good if it says "Shieeeet" when you squish it.

Thanks,
