    Yasuke is a really interesting choice for a protagonist - taking a lesser historical figure and giving him the spotlight. This isn't untreaded territory, there are a lot of Japanese works with Yasuke as the protagonist or as an important character, like Afro Samurai. I live to see these gamers seethe, though, next Assassins Creed game better be set in colonial Brazil with Zumbi dos Palmares as the protagonist or in Haiti with Dessalines as the protag

      i was thinking chinese guy in the old west since the freeze-gamer are stepping up for asian male representation. Kill some railroad barons, guns exist but still kinda suck, etc.

      Freedom Cry DLC for ACIV let you kill slaveowners and free slaves in Haiti. They libbed it up unfortunately, but it was still pretty great getting to to do that.
