Assassin's Creed Shadows - Yasuke confirmed Samurai, cope and seethe - coming February 14th

[Gerrard]

I just remember that Grummz or some other grifter got fed fake info by his source not long ago, so yeah.

 

[AwesomeButton]

I'm not any youtube grifter's groupie, so I don't really know or care to know about their dramas. It's all speculation attributed to an insider source, from then on I hear it out and weigh it in accordance with what I know.

So why was Shadows delayed? It’s a complicated question without a single answer, but it boils down to a strict development timeline, polishing, and addressing the Japanese community’s cultural and historical accuracy concerns.

But first, let me address some of the wild rumors about Yasuke—he’s not going to be removed. However, sources have said that the team has been actively addressing many of the historical and cultural concerns. This includes changing some of Yasuke’s story and how he’s portrayed in the game, fixing architectural details, and ensuring that the game is historically grounded while fitting into the Assassin’s Creed universe.

As for the game’s polish and issues with bugs, it’s pretty self-explanatory. The game is currently not at the stage it needs to be for release. Seven developers working on the project said that they have been pushing for a delay for some time, and their situation had even been heard at other studios in the company

It seems they were trying to get this to sell:

Set against the backdrop of the one-legged gate that withstood the bomb. At the low price of USD 48.99 (at the time of writing).

Sad that nobody gave two shits when European history and Christendom had been defaced and rewritten in pretty much every game. But oh shit, a Japanese gate being pulled from the aftermath of WW2?!, that's some real shit!.

If Ubisoft is in real trouble, I find it concerning.

We should brainstorm some ideas to help them!

Souls-like games are popular nowadays, it's worth a try. Hmmm... A nameless hero, The Fentanyl One, traverses a dying city.
He caps crack zombies left and right and heals himself with a purple Estus Flask. The game is called... Hoodborne.

The Japanese got a minister in government involved. Westerners just kept quiet.

The only way Ubisoft survives is if it reforms into something unrecognisable to what it is today. Mass layoffs, branch closures, and a focus on AA games that are creatively charged. In other words, Rayman 4.

Punching Pope Alexander VI in the face was something most Christendom of the time wanted to do, so what's the problem?

As if they were writing that scene from the perspective of a malcontent from the 15th century, and not from the average redditor's.

That will never, ever happen. Large game studios have far more value as a financialization playground and manufactory-to-audience pipeline for pushing messages and advertising than they do as a boutique just making games that are good.

If you tell the banksters that they can’t do AAAA games-as-a-casino and can’t hire themselves out as propaganda makers for powerful interests, they’ll just take their ball and go home.

Is there any example of a large (or even largish) studio that bucks this trend?

egyptians raised voice against black cleopatra, japanese - against yasuke, europeans - "it's just black kang of england, black achilles and black joan of arc, no big deal. europe is just an idea anyway. don't look back in anger!"

Meh, Britbongs had been colonizing half of the world, draining resources and murdering locals in Africa, India and even China. Now they have pajeet minister and need to bow down to Kangs. I don't even feel sorry for them.

Yeah, Britbongs had the audacity to conquer various territories and then bestow upon the native savages their vastly superior culture, economic system, legal system, and religious values. If it weren't for the Britbongs, the pajeets could eat cow shit in peace!. Although to be frank, that's what should've happened. If they weren't going to clean house and implement an apartheid system, like the Indians themselves used to have, what was the point?. It more or less just gave inferior cultures free access to the British homeland, and the results speak for themselves.

Funny because modern m0slem egyptians (with a small, but still considerable christian minority) have very little in common with Cleopatra herself who was of Ptolemaic greek descent and had not a drop of native egyptian blood in her veins.
But they still spoke against this woke shit depicting her as a black qween!
Unlike cuck western euros...

I mean as invaders they were supposed to enforce their culture, not bring inferior cultures into their own land. They saw how other cultures are working. It's like you curbstomp your enemy and then say, I am so sorry, have my daughter as an apology. This is some kind of bullshit.

We saved the British from themselves. Without us, Britain would naturally die from depopulation.

According to the latest studies one of the biggest contributors to decreased birthrates is unsurprisingly diversity, I can't imagine why people aren't having as many kids when you airdrop paki rapists and black robbers into a community.

It's a great explanatory model as to why North Korea despite the dire economic issues has much better birthrates than the occupied southern territories, which is coincidentally more diverse and open to the globe. There are more factors like industrialization and urbanization, but retarded paki child molesters are not doing the British any favors.

Anybody who knows enough about Japan would know this game has a chance to cause an international incident.

I sure hope so.

Ubi should triple down and add microtransaction voicelines where Yasuke can say "Fuck Takeshi gon' do?" and "Gib me dat"

Add a DMC-style scoring system for how much property damage you cause

Yeah, at this point the disconnect between what customers expect and what the corporate bosses are lead to believe the customers expect has become too massive to ignore.

I try to picture it as a pyramid orgchart of decline.

At the bottom is the 30+ y.o. guy who lives alone and fills his life with entertainment consumption. He pays for the product, consumes the product, his behavioral patterns produce data, which is then mined, so in effect he is both a consumer and a product. But because the industry has managed to take over his life, he will likely not reproduce and be the last generation, and the industry will consume him as it consumes a resource, before allowing him to reproduce himself as a resource would, by having at least two babies. What can you do, the industry wants revenues and wants them fast. If it runs out of resource/materials, it can always import more from the mideast or africa, right?

Above him is the AAA developer working on the next product to be consumed by that wretched "consumer/product". He knows he produces slop, but he is getting paid good money for it.

Above him is the AAA games "creative" designer, who comes up with variations on woke themes until he writes his quota of 100 sidequests to provide filler content for the next AssCreed.

Above him is the producer, responsible for maximum asset reuse, to minimize costs.

Higher up you have the C-level execs who want to turn in the highest possible revenue and expect all those working below them are working towards this goal and in good faith.

Higher up is the investor. He believes that by requiring woke agenda in games he is helping the downtrodden, by means of forcefully educating the proles, which is what he considers the guy at the bottom of the pyramid to be. He also can't help but feel kind of guilty he is so rich, but getting richer is already a habit for him.

And at the very top, or somewhere above it even, is some witless humanities professor from a university, who wrote a pseudo intellectual theory that seemed very profound to the investor guy, because he was too busy making money to actually think on it critically.

Let us never forget

The Boers of South Africa did not agree, some rather moving into Zulu territory than live under British savagery.

It was also in South Africa the British created some of the world's first concentration camps, where both black and white prisoners (mostly women and children) were mistreated to death. For some reason we never hear about these, even though they existed just 40 years before Nazi Germany's...

The British (and other Europeans) are of course not the only ones conquering other societies, but that doesn't meant we should excuse them anymore than previous "non-white" conquerors. It just means they're all the same.

Neither were Europeans the only ones rationalizing their conquests by "bringing civilization to the savages", it's just what conquerors usually do . In some cases it could partially be true, such as when ending the slave trade to primitive regions like North America, but obviously that was not the real reason for the Colonialist expansion.
