Why would anyone not want to play as an asian samurai?
Racial tension between the groups. so if true this is the reason then it's pretty despicable of UBI (you can be a black person slaughtering asians in the most brutal way possible, but not the other way around).
But woke people are probably the most racist ones out there, and ofc super aware of these things, of skin colors and race, of who doesn't like who etc. They're obsessed with it more than your typical Nazi.
edit: had to check if ChatGPT agrees that there's racial tension between the groups in the US, it said yes. it can sometimes be interesting to use it since it's so heavily censored, to see if it has some kind of excuse etc, but no.
I wonder if they're gonna black china next
it would actually be ballsy to do so, since most western companies go so far as to remove black actors from posters to not piss off tencent & CCP money.
So many heckin gamerinos attributing this to "mUh RiGtH wINg cHUds" and trying to paint it as if no one in Japan was/is critical of all the bullshit, it's amazing

You're right, but the same could be said of EVERY major publisher today - EA, Ubisoft, Sony, Capcom, Square Enix, hell even Rockstar, all could do with a rude awakening.
The industry has grown fat and corpulent on the teets of DLC, Season Passes, micro-transactions, politically induced grants, and just overall minimal effort for maximal returns. It's long over due for a massive crash. These "game directors" and CEO's need to get kicked out on their asses with the door slammed in their face.
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

Listening to players' feedback, and as an illustration of our player-centric approach, the following important decisions relative to Assassin’s Creed Shadows have been taken:
- Assassin’s Creed Shadows will now be released on 14 February 2025. While the game
is feature complete, the learnings from the Star Wars Outlaws release led us to provide
additional time to further polish the title. This will enable the biggest entry in the
franchise to fully deliver on its ambition, notably by fulfilling the promise of our dual
protagonist adventure, with Naoe and Yasuke bringing two very different gameplay
styles.
- We are departing from the traditional Season Pass model. All players will be able to
enjoy the game at the same time on February 14 and those who preorder the game
will be granted the first expansion for free.
- The game will mark the return of our new releases on Steam Day 1.
So instead of saying "Fuck, sorry guys. We're removing this black sob and replacing him with a japanese male samurai" they're just trying to appease with giving away some free stuffs and delaying it for as long as they imagine the human mind will remember a controversy, or at least the feelings around it. Probably true, people are dumb as bricks.
Best thing that could happen in gaming is for a bunch of these studios to go under. In fact, fuck it. Burn the whole AAA industry to the ground for all I care, 99% of it is dogshit anyway.
But if Ghost of Yōtei releases in Q1 2025 they're fucked.
First game was based on authenticity, now it's hit with the DEI stick. It's up to them if they can keep the authenticity despite the obvious silliness with having a generic looking female protagonist in a samurai era no less, but only time will tell
