SOMEONE THINK OF THE GAMERS! (lemmy.world)

Yasuke is actually a fantastic choice as far as history/narrative goes.

A shame the game looks like more generic Assassin's Creed Mapfucking+Crowd Supermurder.

Which is fine if that's your thing, but I haven't been thrilled by an AC game since... well, AC1.

As someone who has been an avid gamer since the 90's; I see a choice between a tank or a rogue... What's the problem?

Also, I think the story of a black samurai is interesting and cool. Even if, like most history of that nature, it might be heavily embellished. "Conservatives", can y'all, for the live of glob, stop politicized fukting everything. Geez.

Yasuke is based on a real life, Black samurai, who unfortunately, did not have too much written in detail about him. This does mean that almost any depiction is going to be embellished or at the very least, unverifiable.

I do hate the Netflix show about him though. When it was announced, I was hoping for a grounded samurai story. Something in the vein of Sword of the Stranger. Not something with magic and giant robots.
