Ubisoft on Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Take-Two on Review Bombing, Skull and Bones joins Steam, Open Beta for Concord is not doing well, Star Wars Outlaws goes wild with the marketing budget...
Yasuke is literally more real than Ezio, and as a historical figure where our knowledge basically begins and ends with 'samurai under Oda who was black' he's a perfect historical fiction protagonist. I'm not even interested in Assassin's Creed but thanks to it I've now seen a lot of incredibly racist talk about Yasuke, who has appeared in Japanese made media for decades. This isn't even his video game debut, he's a playable character in Samurai Warriors 5 (a Japanese developed game) for example, which I'd much rather play.
I honestly think that internet is becoming angrier and angrier with each passing year. People are actively looking for reasons to be offended and angry about… I’m not saying that Ubisoft people are saints, but sometimes it goes absurdly too far
I remember being excited for skull and bones like 6 years ago? Now I just don't really care. Feels like it missed its window for me and I got all the pirate action I was craving from sea of thieves. Haha
I thought about diving into sea of thieves too, but I always thought that it’s a game that you can’t play without a party, at least it wouldn’t be as fun. Am I wrong? Also, it’s a shame they don’t have 3rd person mode…
It is 100% better with a group but you can find some fun going solo. It's just a lot more dangerous that way haha. But that's a unique thrill in its self.
Yeah, I’ve seen some footages about a guy being raided by like 10 different ships, but I hope there’s a system that prevents you from losing everything you have… 😅
Is it me or does review bombing only seem to happen with unimpressive triple-A games? I agree there are mobs that like to drag down games they don't like. But usually, those games aren't good, either.

Yep, I agree. It’s not like these reviews are unfair or don’t have merit. I’m yet to see a bombing just for the sake of it
