A new rumor alleges that Ubisoft scrapped a planned Assassin’s Creed game set in the Reconstruction era of the United States of America following backlash to Assassin’s Creed Shadows.This Substack is reader-supported.
They were going to go from a game about a black slave to another game about a black slave (ignoring the fact that the majority of human slaves throughout history have not been black)? And I thought Witches' Creed was going to be bad... (It will be.)
I played Assassin's Creed 3, about a native American assassin during the revolutionary war. It was pretty good. There was DLC where an alternative timeline has George Washington crowning himself king... but I never played that part of it.
Ubisoft blew it when they made a samurai black when it wasn't even historically accurate that this dude was a samurai. He would fit more in a Reconstruction era type game. There were also no women samurai! So gender swapping, gay and lesbianism and race swapping doesn't work, Ubisoft!! Quit pandering to the miniscule segment of fans that may be these things. You're losing the 98% of us are usually buy your games! Sucker Punch is also now finding out that this is true! Ha, ha.
Its impossible to think this game isn't real considering how perfect a scenario it is for the WOKE/DEI mind. I guarantee you that the toxic people at Ubiwoke were salivating at the idea of making this kind of AC game. A ex-slave in reconstruction ERA America killing the evil white devil; a fantasy come true for the WOKE and DEI cult members. Had they been allowed to go thru with it I guarantee you it would be the longest AC game in the IP and it would have more DLC's and the like than any other AC game in its history.
What the customer base wanted most desperately in an AC game set in Feudal Japan featuring the peoples of that time but instead what the toxic employee's and mgt at Ubiwoke believe the customer base should want most is a game like this one, the video game equivalent of DJANGO. In fact i guarantee you they were often referring to the DJANGO movie for inspiration of the game.
Thank God for Tencent and I know that's a hard pill to swallow but in this case they just may have saved at least a few of Ubisoft's IP's from Ubisoft's determined self-destruction.
I wonder if it was going to star a Japanese assassin...
