They really stunk up this free slam dunk with a female protagonist

Real ironic that the creators of the "proper" Assassin's Creed in Japan would turn around and make something like this.

the game gets really gay and feminist propaganda the longer you play it, I quit maybe 25% in because of it

My guess is that they went with a female samurai due to how popular Blue Eye Samurai is. The MC also kind of looks like Mizu, the main character of that show. Also, the game takes place in the same era as Blue Eye Samurai.

I'm aware that historically there was the occasional woman samurai which were called "onna-musha", but methinks that this is a poor timing for creating games - or any media in general - that hyperfocuses on female protagonists, what with the massive feminist fatigue that even the average normie is tired of.

I remember watching Angry Joe's review of Skull & Bones out of morbid curiosity and even he was getting sick and tired of the feminist ******** in that game. If a liberal normie like Joe is sick of feminist **** in games that is a good indicator that a majority of gamers are also sick of it. This game could be good but the timing for the protagonist they want is very bad. Given the success of Space Marine 2 and the failure after failure of games with a female protagonist it is safe to say that games with masculine male protagonists are what is selling right now. Doesn't help that Western devs keep making female protagonists look like King Charles II of Spain with a personality of a viper. Nobody wants to play female characters like that.

Oh no. Oh no no no no. Not Erika Ishii. Erika is a mentally ill gender special who is most famous for freaking out at Hogwarts Legacy and trying to dox and life ruin streamers for playing the game. She also is such an obnoxious LGBTQ+ activist that even Matt Mercer is uncomfortable being around her. She spends most of her days on Twitter bitching about Trump and Vance and trying to dox and get their supporters banned off Twitter and fired from their jobs.

This game is DOA.

I believe they are called "Broken Branch". Fitting for Erika. She makes ancestors cry.

It is suppose to be about the Family Tree. Asians are very devoted to preserving their family tree and having it be healthy. They view ********, gender specials and gays as "Broken Branches" on the Family Tree. Hence Erika is a broken branch and she gets super ****** at people telling her that that she blocks them.

It is funny how Erika calls herself "genderfluid" when she very much acts like a hysterical, mentally ill woman. When someone gets into a disagreement with a man that man will just call you a ****** or a **** and be about their day. Women on the other hand will dox and engage in life ruination whenever they develop a grudge against someone or if someone dares disagrees with them. Which is what Erika did to streamers who played Hogwarts Legacy. No matter how hard Erika tries, her actions will always lead to people knowing that she is a mentally ill woman.

Great. Who ******* cares about Jin, huh Sony? Who cares about a man who had to forsake his honor, because his duty to protect his people was more important to him than fighting with honor, the very same thing the Mongols did not possess throughout the game? We could've had a Tsushima 2 where Jin went all in with the dishonorable ronin/ninja thing, with new skills, systems and brutal takedowns

You have to understand when this game was greenlit. It was greenlit around 2020-2021. The year that DEI was at it's height and companies like BlackRock had a ton of money to burn with pushing DEI initiatives. Now? Not so much. More and more companies are pulling out of DEI due to a combination of them losing so much money on games that don't sell and the economy being in the toilet. Even BlackRock is forsaking it (For now. That godless **** Fink will try again.) after losing trillions over the years and not seeing any profits. This game on release will be a relic of a dark time in gaming. It will probably be another 200+ million dollar game that Sony will waste money on. Funny how after Concord's failure they refuse to give up on DEI. Which shows that the higher ups at Sony are true believers in this **** as everyone else is in the pedophile hellhole that is Los Angeles.

The Ubishit incompetence rabbithole is deeper than I would've anticipated, to my genuine surprise.



In this video it's pointed out - among several other things - that Yasuke was given both clothes and a sword that are riddled with the crest of the Nobunaga family all over them. The thing is that the Nobunaga family is still around to this day and nobody is allowed to depict their family crest in media without the permission of a family representative, and chances are that Ubishit merely saw that crest while Googling "Nobunaga" and thought it would be cool to paster it all over their ****** mascot. lmfao

When I think that modern game devs can't sink lower, I'm proven wrong again.

She deleted a lot of her tweets about Hogwarts Legacy after she got massive blowback from both TERF's and gamers. Erika is the kind of woman that likes to dish it out and say "Die TERF scum" but will cower in fear the moment when things don't go her way. Typical female LGBTQ activist behavior.

Any game of note delayed to February is going to be delayed again. That's KCD2's release month.
November is wide open with regards to big name releases as far as I can think of right now.
