This dumpster fire got me to start playing Ghost of Tsushima. Great game thus far.

Yasuke is not gay in AC Shadows. He's straight unless the player wants to go elsewhere.

that is not a binary answer. its non binary

either yasuke rapes japanese men (gay) or he only rapes japanese women (not gay). if he has the option to rape men, it is gay.

unless... you are saying yasuka gets thrown into prison and then has to establish dominance by making other men toss his salad. that, as we all know, falls into prison rules which is not gay

What you do in life echoes in eternity. Unless you suck one cock. Then you're a cock sucker forever.

What a bigoted and offensive opinion! To believe that Yasuke is born straight and then can just CHOOSE to be gay. I can't believe someone as bigoted and homophobic as you is allowed to post here.

Yasuke...Yakuza... Finkle is Einhorn? Black Man invented Japanese Crime?

Noped out of this after the Viking one. Was the last game any good?

I didn't even know a game came out after AC Valhalla. Just reading about it moving away from the RPG elements makes me more likely to play it, but no where near the threshold to actually play it.

I don't really have hopes for AC Shadows, but if I did it would be to embrace stealth and not RPG.

Mirage - basically a back story of Basim. Was supposed to be a DLC for Valhalla and they turned it into a standalone game.

I actually enjoyed AC:Mirage, I think it took me like 25 hours or so to finish. The story was decent enough, and gameplay was solid. Focused more on being an assassin and stealthy than the most recent games that could be played without stealth. That said, it's also fairly forgettable.

You can try to play stealth, but I'm not sure how immersive it can be when you are playing as a 6+ ft black dude in feudal Japan when the average person was probably 5 ft tall. You are literally the opposite of stealth. I don't see how you can't bust out laughing every time you try crouching your big black ass trying to sneak up behind some other dude and pretending no one notices you.

I'd like to think that they will design around that and feature appropriate missions for each character with some level of player choice for most missions based on which character they choose (similar to say, the Hitman Series where to get the Silent Assassin ranking you need to leave no trace), but let's be real here: the team that chose Yasuke is going to be hit and miss on every other big design decision.

Hey, has anyone mentioned yet how weird it would be for a 6ft+ black man to try to be sneaky in feudal Japan??????

Literally the only black guy on an island of people so xenophobic they hate other yellow people for not being the correct kind of yellow. Ideal assassin candidate.
I at least can claim the distinction of being the first person to allude to it.

Well obviously I was aware of that when I made my post. Seemed so obvious that it could go unspoken. By the way, did you ever get the plaque I sent you?

I read that as plague, then when I looked again it still said plague. Was typing up some return snark when it finally dawned on me that the word was plaque.

No I didn't get my plaque, you should send a new one to commemorate my amazingitude.

The backlash on this is really ruffling the feathers of the cucks as they try to rewrite history on a wikipedia page.

I just watched the gameplay on the Ubisoft stream and the game has a lot of incredible elements.

I firmly the believe the game would have been extremely well-received had the nog been a Japanese man and even more well-received had they both been men that share an honor-bound brotherhood. Or, at the very least, have the option to play as a man.

Whatever though. I'm not the one losing a hundred million dollars because...reasons.
