Yeah, Japanese people seem to be different when it comes to their history. It is up to them if they don’t want to buy it. In the end that is what matters, not what the publicity is before that.

Still, this “apology” is lots of words for saying “Sorry but we still do what we want”. :upside_down_face:

There are a lot of historical Figures in the Series, but they’re always side characters, not the playable character, maybe thats what rubs people the wrong way. But then again, people love to complain about shit.

I think the apology is directly related to a real life flag that was used without permission. It has nothing to do with the black character.

The controversy about Yasuke is dumb and nothing but weird racists shouting at the clouds.

It was kinda funny to see some white people try to justify their dislike of Yasuke by pretending to care about Asian representation.

The lady ninja is one of the best ninjas in fiction because I have never seen her get picked on by Gamers™.

That’s really sad, and really suspicious from the higher-ups. Humble Games (at least I thought) were pretty darn successful with releasing high-quality, popular Indie games!

Also I looked up the owners of Humble, and they’re owned by Ziff Davis, a company that also owns things like IGN, Digital Foundry, Eurogamer, and a few other gaming media companies (among many other non-gaming companies) :frowning_with_open_mouth:

Update?

Japan’s government has (not) commented on Ubisoft’s game, and thankfully, basically says…

“Who cares, as long as its not distasteful.”

A limited collector edition of TDUSC with a bunch of physical goodies! Now this is something quite rare these days in the gaming market. I still plan to buy the digital copy of the base game on launch, I think.
