Assassin's Creed Shadows hits 2 million players, putting it on track to be the series' most successful game yet

I thought this was a crippling failure because it was woke or something?
I'd expect it to be a failure because it's a 70$ ubishit paint-by-numbers, but I'll find out in two years when it's 15$
Yeah, I was utterly shocked at the price. £70 to download or £56 on disk.
The last Assassins Creed I played was Odyssey and that was well after release so I paid a far more reasonable £30 or so.
Yeah they put a black samurai in it. Of course the screeching ggamers were screeching about “historical accuracy “….. and then of course there was a story about a black samurai …. So they had to shut up
On the contrary. The word on the conservative circles is how awful the game is and how it doesn't compare.
I'm serious. They're not shutting up about it (and if you think that's happening you're in a bubble). The actual discussion point is that this game is a failure.
To be fair, yasuke never was a samurai. He was a bodyguard of a jesuit monk (I think?) and was sold to obu nobunaga because he thought he looked "funny". He was a trusted retainer under nobunaga, but never owned land or was a samurai.
Well, considering Japan itself is saying that the game is disrespectful... Looks more like Ubisoft wanted to help themselves to a nice slice of tokenism. Corporations are going to corporate.
It's a failure because it's trash. The game is honestly laughably bad.
So I wonder where all the players come from.
Did you play it?
Hard for me to argue, as I never liked any Assassin Creed video game, lol.
Just reporting on what seems to be said in my circle.
