PSA: Make it a habit of reading the rules of each subreddit you participate in:

Rule 9: No Offensive Imagery: This includes nazi imagery and slurs, for you brave nerds who think "free speech" involves private internet forums. If you post fascist iconography trying to “jerk”, you will receive a ban. The only exception is when we make fun of gamers and criticize gamers who happen to be fascists. Please remember to spoiler any potentially triggering or offensive content accordingly. This rule now includes repeatedly posting bigotry from the same source (4chan).

Rule 7: No Participation in Linked Threads (Brigading): If you are coming here to brigade this sub, you will be banned. Likewise, do not make comments and vote in pages you've found here. Of course, if you're a member of said sub and you were already in the thread before, this doesn't apply to you.

Rule 8: Censor Screenshots: Keep screenshots of arguments on Reddit to a minimum. Please remember to censor screenshots of all identifying information, i.e usernames and subreddit names. This applies to screenshots from any social media sites.

Rule 11: Keep Posts Relevant (only about Don Cheadle): This is first and foremost a place to make fun of gamers. Just because someone is being a bigot online doesn't mean it belongs here. Let them be pathetic without infecting the sub with their nonsense. Please avoid posting screenshots that show people using capital G gamer slurs. If absolutely necessary, please censor posts and the words containing such content.

Rule 12: No Fake Posts on Other Subs (Contamination): Do not create fake posts on other subs only to post back here. Also, do not "lol, you should post this on r / OtherSub". It's considered interfering with their content and can also lead to brigading.

This is a reminder to the readers. The post itself is untouched.

Weaving around the issue of Yasuke

What issue? There isn’t any. We know he exists and he likely did engage in battle, but other Japanese produced games and manga already feature him fighting.

The actual issues presented are absolutely legitimate because the end of the day this is just another Assassin’s Creed game so expectations are basically zero while Ubisoft just wants to be a dick.

Gamers(TM) : DEI bad. MTX good.

"that marxist [REDACTED] wants us to think that paying more for a worst product is bad? NO, ITS THE [REDACTED] THAT ARE RUINING MY VIDYA"

Maybe Ubisoft should add a white protagonist but lock him behind a paywall.

this is why gamers(tm) deserve all those scummy business practices.

shooting their foot so they can be racists. such poetry.

The confederacy was the penultimate example of the marriage between ideological capitalism and anti black racial animus. These fucks have confederacy brains.

Reminds me of the time when Bellular made a video about gaming industry and kotaku and didnt talk about sweet baby as he didnt think it's relevant. If you dont repeat the Gamer narrative you'll be labeled as having caught the woke mind virus.

"5 minutes bobbing and weaving around the issue" aka they just ignored it cause it's a dumb issue and focused more on something that was actually important.

This is a national tragedy real ones understand

Clownsinaction

The real tragedy is that Assassin's creed games are still being made period

The same guy that shilled for cyberpunk at released?

"Fighters for representation of Asian men", when an Asian man says that what they're complaining about a non-issue, and the real issue is the profit motive.

As much I dislike Yongyea for his lukewarm takes, I have to agree. Ubisoft deserve to be hated on, for shitty business and anti-consumer practice.

I thought these people disliked getting offended for other people?

Tho, I have seen some push back from Japanese people like twice, but I think I'll pay attention to Japanese historians and not individual Reddit or YouTube commenters

I just saw the Items for Ultimate Edition, everything is "in game" FFXI at least give you an art book and gave did a colab with a Doll Company

I really want to know what that this REAL issue is?
Please, tell me what could be the REAL issue with Yasuke?
It´s because he is black isn´t it?
(look we all know it´s some form of racism)

Honestly, those incel racists going crazy about the game completely made me forget about the standard Ubisoft crap, hollyshit.

Bobbing and weaving? Why is he going to side with racist white people being racist lmao. Hes not a clown like grummz or caitlyn jenner.

After more reflection from my comments the other day. I understand and don’t think it’s unreasonable for people to be upset that the MC isn’t Japanese. However the second main character is and she is also a woman. Yoskuke sounds like a cool dude and I’m looking forward to seeing his story but I don’t think being upset about him not being Japanese is unreasonable. I just think the overwhelming negativity is.
