Assassin’s Creed Shadows has finally been released, and according to developers, with stunning sells, topping 2 million players. The problem is, however, these sells are termed “activations” and Ubisoft has not been upfront about whether these include unique log-ins or actual purchases. Ubisoft is so paranoid about the game - understandably because it if fails so does the company - they are hiring agents to patrol the Internet for criticism. Once found, they are planning to sue players, while offering psychological assistances to any employees, half of which never made a game before, in need after being confronted with reasonable questions. Famous Japanese game creator Hideki Kamiya defended the game, saying “normal people” don’t care, an interesting statement because it’s also circulating Steam as a talking point, almost surely promoted by Ubisoft - “normal people don’t get upset about this.” This is especially true because the Japanese game community has been the angriest, not western commentators who, frankly, have never even heard of Shintoism. Besides the race-baiting, controversial release dates, cultural insensitiveness, theft of shrine designs without permission, the making of a black samurai gay or an adulterer, the gameplay objectively is like decades old copy and paste low level garbage. The optics are so bad that even the Prime Minster of Japan commented, particularly because what he fears has already happened in the country due to clout chasing tourists: “I fear that allowing players to attack and destroy real-world locations in the game without permission could encourage similar behavior in real life. Shrine officials and local residents are also worried about this. Of course, freedom of expression must be respected, but acts that demean local cultures should be avoided.”
Then there is Snow White, which by all objective measures makes ACS look like a well done masterpiece. This movie is so bad in every aspect, and the intention of Disney so blatantly disgusting, it will be a miracle if it doesn’t get pulled from the theater within a week.
