Assassin’s Creed franchise boss Marc-Alexis Coté has addressed the online backlash which has swirled around the main characters of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the subsequent impact it has had on the game’s development staff, and the attempts by bad faith commenters to disrupt and dissuade creative teams from telling stories featuring diverse and inclusive characters in general…
Everyone is pissed because they took huge historical liberties when it isn’t needed.
Diversity doesn’t mean black samurais. This seems very two faced, it’s as if they are trying to imply the anti-woke brigade is after them when the choices they made were just dumb.
All they had to do was not white wash everything and aim for historical accuracy. Instead they made insane choices and dumped a bunch of other cultures into it (mainly china).
