Lmao. I wanted to share that so badly but didn't want to unintentionally cause more meltdowns over this topic. But since you already brought it up...

-be Ubisoft again
-releases another Assassin's Creed Shadow figurine set
-uses a One-Leg Torii as the backdrop for it
-the only known instance of a One-Leg Torii is the Sanno Shrine...which is a remnant/reminder of the Nagasaki incident from...1945

Ubisoft you just...I can't… pic.twitter.com/jYZhIQMftC

You truly have to admire Ubisoft's dedication to making this the 'most historically accurate Assassin's Creed to date'.

It feels like they disrespect the culture too much tbh.
Assassins creed doesn't feel like its a homage to different nations and cultures, if this is how they go about it.
Its a mockery instead.  Esp. when they come out and say "most historically accurate assasins creed to date".

Also their source on Yasuke was like a youtuber, that published books or something.... not a actual historian.
Then you have all of them comeing out saying "history is like this!" source this book, by this guy.
That guy then is just some random that wrote a book (who actual historians refute).

Yasuke is a samurai in this game, because they wanted a black samurai... end of it.
Its DEI stuff forced into a game.... which is fine, if they just came out and said "its a game, we made, it can be whatever we want it to be".
Instead of going "its the most historical accurate thing ever".

Meanwhile they make figurines, showing this gateway to the gods (of theirs) of a shrine, that got blasted apart by a nuke.

The ONLY thing Ubisoft had to do was make a bog standard Assassins Greed game set in Japan to see the monies pouring in. But somehow decided to complicate things for themselves. Stepping on a rake.
