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.

I think Black Flag was so well received because it has the least amount of Assassin's Creed gameplay in it.

It felt fresh in AC2 but there's only so many times you can trot out the same exact game with an extra gimmick before tedium sets in.

Nothing highlighted this as starkly as AC3 where I realised that without Ezio I just didn't care about the story at all.
