Oh neat, he is based on Yasuke. I'm still pretty hesitant about Ubisoft stuff at this point, though.

It says something that the only Ubi games I'm excited to play one day are either supposed remakes (Black Flag, Splinter Cell), or indie-esque darlings (both Prince of Persia games)

Like if I could trust them not to fuck up everything else, this might be a deal maker for me, unfortunately, Ubisoft is Ubisoft

Same. And ANOTHER Assassin’s Creed game? Can they just let that series die please? It’s not even Assassin’s Creed anymore. The recent games just share the name. I’d be far more interested in an “Assassin’s Creed like game with its own story.”
