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.

    Relax, I’ve played the previous entries and found them interesting. The 8 year old Origins title hasn’t stopped working yet. Have any of the older ones?

    I haven’t bought the last few, but loved Odyssey and even found the dreary miserable deserts of Origins somewhat of a cool setting. Sengoku era Japan is also a great setting so I’m anticipating a game with many flaws that will be frustrating, but fun.

      There’s a solid chance Ubisoft goes bankrupt and all the drm required games go down at the same time. They also have a terrible track record with opening games up to keep them alive past their service life.

        There’s a conspiracy theory that the Guillemot family (with the help from Tencent) is looking to turn Ubisoft private and for that they need to tank the stock.

        I’m not saying it will happen but it’s something that also explains their business decisions.
