But Yasuke has feudal Japan hip hop battle music

Can't subvert that

got_dam720d ago

I mean, samurai shamploo has a mostly hip hop soundtrack if I remember right. No opinion on the game itself, just saying there is a real world example of hip-hop samurai entertainment made by the Japanese.

Well has AC ever had non historically accurate music in its Animus sections?

And samurai Champloo doesn't give a greelight to use rap in every japanese setting game. If rap was playing when you encountered youske in Nioh 2 it would be cringe and the people calling it ok for AC shadows would call it racist in Nioh 2.

Daeloki719d ago (Edited 719d ago )

AC hasn't been historically accurate in years, and the last two have had magic stuff in them. Having modern influenced music in them hardly seems like a big deal at this point.
Edit: By the last two I mean Odyssey and Valhalla, didn't play Mirage

Already sold on both!

November can´t come soon enough.

mouse and keyboard support for Switch 2. That's cool.

Another step closer to finally getting me to buy the game. Just need some more fixes, improvements, and a bigger price drop for the premium edition. They've already announced no more major DLC expansions but I'm still taking a wait-and-see approach.

I used to buy cheap games thinking I’d play them later, but I always ended up returning to my favorites. Now I skip the deals unless I know I’ll play the game soon.

Lionsguard79d ago

This is very true, my nephews grew up on these two games and whenever I introduce them a AAA game whether old or new, it's like seeing an alien try to make sense of it and then quickly lose interest in it.

Can’t really expect a 8 year old Roblox kid to go buy resident evil 9 lol

CrimsonWing6978d ago

Gaming trends are so weird to me now. Like, I’m old school and games were consumed essentially how movies were. You play through a title and look forward to the sequel or other things that came out. Now, that is so not the norm.
