"Can you fight the Pope, though?" - With Candace The Magnificent & Navaar Jackson AD FREE
Added 2024-07-18 21:01:01 +0000 UTCJeremy, Candace The Magnificent and Navaar Jackson are back this week to talk about the news of the Assassins Creed: Shadows release. Can you guess why? Yep, a lot of people seem very upset that one of the main protagonists - Yasuke - is a black man, in a game set in feudal Japan. Would we have this same backlash if it was a white guy? Is using the 'historical accuracy' label being used more by game companies just to avoid being classed as 'woke'? And how does it compare to game companies embracing gender? Let's talk about it!

It's so interesting that for both Nioh and Shadows, both have non- Japanese MCs, both based on real historical figures, but only one is creating an issue.......
