woke garbage
I hear you man I also only wanna play games with people that look like you but there are only so many zoo tycoon games out there
What does woke mean?
They don't know, but the orange man told them it's bad.
They're upset that there's a black man in a game that takes place in feudal Japan.
Tbh, I don't see why there should be a black character, but if there's a historical precedent or something then sure. For instance there were black vikings in Valhalla, but I know that there are historical reasons for that.

Huh. Interesting.
I don't think Ubi went "woke" but it does seem kinda disrespectful IMO.
Imagine if in Assassins Creed Origins, the ~~main~~ playable character was white. There would be an uproar.
For what Assassins Creed is worth (and it isn't a lot, and hasn't been for a long time), the stories are about the history of the country, as much as the people within it.
To take the perspective away from a native citizen betrays that intent. If Ubi wanted a "fish out of water" character, they should have continued to elaborate on Desmond's story.
There... were white characters in Origins? Did you not pay attention or even finish the story?
I meant as a playable character.
Also, no, I didn't play it lol. My last Assassins Creed game was Black Flag
🤡
Even funnier is the guy's post history is all about game and media piracy. Ubisoft just lost themselves a lifetime non-customer by daring to go woke.
I only purchase games from gog or steam. not epic nor ea or ubi$oft store
