Summary

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Assassin's Creed Shadows is already being labeled as "woke" and "disrespectful" following its announcement trailer, primarily due to main characters Naoe and Yasuke, the latteꦡr of✨ whom is historically considered Japan's first black samurai.
Ubisoft has finally lifted the lid on the next mainline Assassin's Creed, revealing that Assassin's Cree👍d Shadows will be available on November 15 later this year. While we didn't get any🌳 gameplay, we did get a lengthy cinematic trailer going into the backstories of the game's two main protagonists, Naoe and Yasuke.

Assassin's Creed Shadows' Yasuke Is Somehow "Disrespectful" To Japan
Most of the vitriol revolves around Yasuke, with some people taking issue with the fact that they're being made to play as a black man in a Feudal Japan setting, despiteᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ the character being a key figu❀re in Japanese history. Some claim that it's inappropriate for Ubisoft to have someone who isn't native to the country as one of the main characters, though I don't think these same people take issue with the fact that the incredibly Welsh Edward Kenway was sailing around the Carribean in Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag.
You've also got some stating that Yasuke wasn't actually a samurai, but was a retainer to Oda Nobunaga, and that this somehow "disrespects" Japanese𓂃 culture.
