Great, another insulted crybabies. Now Japanese.

[Yusucki]

Wolfenstein accurately represented German culture and GTA the American culture. That is why no one is upset at those games.

Bruh please ain't no real amount of Japanese people sweating this game. I've watched numerous videos from Japanese content creators saying they didn't care or see the controversial nature of the release. They make all these arguments complaining its not historically accurate...but they had da Vinci in a few of the games like that was historically accurate and no complaints about that. Was George Washington involved in a game too ffs but once a BLACK man is in the lead portraying a actual historical figure as a main character s*** hits the fan...yeah ok. Just call it what it is and stand on it. Making excuses like the Japanese give that much of a f***. Hell origins didn't have any major black characters and that was in Egypt ffs but again..call it what it is. Foh..

Let me guess: some white dude decided to get offended for the Japanese so he started a petition.

[Jamie]

People like those who started this petition are why gamers are looked down on  in society.

[ac 4ever]

the game even starts with the message that everything seen/played throughout is not real but comparisons with realism are possible

Someone takes their anime way too seriously. Imagine expecting an extremist woke company like Ubicrap to release a game honoring someone's culture properly.

The comments defending the game are even more braindead as they pretend said company doesn't bastardize every historical period they set the games in. On the other hand Ubicrap themselves claim the world they show IS what it was - don't forget the world tour features in Odyssey.

So instead of writing petitions, don't buy it; and whoever enjoys this garbage - more power to you 💖

Alright, I have a lot to say, first of all, Assassin's Creed is a FICTIONAL, ALTERTATE HISTORY, to my knowledge there is no order of Assassin's fighting an order of Templars, a race of gods called the Isu, or permanent worldwide auroras across the modern-day earth. Second of all there was a black samuri, third of all I bet all of the virgins getting mad over this are white and have no basis to say anything.

I'm sick and tired of your racist ball s*** towards white guys you all are the scum,if you don't see how racist and in accurate this game is then your just as woke and liberal as they come a quick history lesson when oda nobunaga died he dies an honorable death where yasukai fled like like coward ubisoft have only gone and disrespected a whole countrys culture and decided to hide behind a black sheild

[Joe]

They don't even realize the first white man was killed in a duel and the last one killed in a fight to over throw their emperor. They were fighting lords if you read the old Japanese history books. One wins they have power. But they focus on how they were kids and not the bad side.

[Shantan]

The irony to take a game more seriously then ones own life, its a fucking game a simple fictional game, react to things happening in your life rather than social media, which doesn't make any difference...

[Ian]

And I'm going to hazard a guess and just throw it out there that none of those names are Japanese and the people those names belong to live nowhere near Japan.

[The WOKE]

Jesus, the irony of idiots who comments about wokism while also complaining that people can make whatever game they want pick a side you imbecile....people using the words "white dude" isn't being racist, explain where the racism in that is...you complain about woke ubisoft yet here you are complaining about asian racism that doesn't exist....at least be consistent with your belief.....
