The fundamentals of the game overall look solid and the stealth gameplay additions and improvements look good, but the real test is whether they can improve the open world design to focus on quality over quantity.

Congratulations for working on Inside Out 2 . I was shocked to see your name in the credits ! It’s always been a lifelong dream of mine to voice act for a Pixar movie, so, to see someone I’ve watched grow over the years get that gig, was amazing 💪🏽⬆️❤️
CONGRATS FOR INSIDE OUT 2
I tuned out the moment you mention the graphics.
You CLEARLY lack proper perception when you fail to notice details that made most people, mostly Japanese people hate this.
"Oh! Look at teh purdy graphics!", ok, I'm out.
umm the japanese structures are more chinese based and the timing of the trees in bloom and rice being planted is very wrong so the environment is bad . call out the bad designs of these gaming companies not to forget the made up history behind the game as well as racism it promotes.
Just remember before preordering, THIS IS UBISOFT!
Or flat out just don’t buy, Ubisoft keeps on fucking up their games and have been doing it for years.
Or just don’t preorder at all…it’s Ubisoft. Better yet, don’t but any Ubisoft product ever again, you’re really not missing out on much you couldn’t get from just watching a gameplay movie on CZcams.
pre ordered your welcome
I’m a fan of not pre ordering AAA / AAAA games.
I endorse not doing so. ✌🏼🤣👍🏼
Actually I prefer waiting the 2 weeks, 1 month , or 2 years for a 50% sale / GotY
Remeber the AC code: "Not Everything is true, Nothing must be pre-ordered"
Why is the AI is braindead. Why aren't they attacking him? Why aren't they reacting? Lmao
Attacking him would be a hate crime
What do you mean? At 6:58 the AI is clearly attacking.
These dummies gave never played ghosts . Most AI just stands there and waits for you to kill them
They dumb down AI for gameplay reveals all the time what are you talking about

If buying isn't owning, then pirating isn't stealing

Good luck pirating it, bud.
You people do realize that ubisoft uses denuvo and it hadn't been cracked properly in years?
it doesn't matter how good it is, DO NOT BUY IT not at 100, it will only encourage companies to jack up the prices of EVERY GAME(well, minus inde games anyway) we do NOT need to be paying above 70$ for a normal game with no preprder bonuses(like back in the older days)
That's not how it works. Everyone else suddenly doesn't get richer because a few wealthy individuals bought a $100 special edition. Companies can't just jack of the price of items unless people get wealthier. The US government, together with the FED, doled out billions of $ to people in the form of stimulus. That's why things have gotten more expensive, inflation.
Gaming has never been a cheap hobby. People need to get this out their head. Depending on where you live, the price for a new game hadnt gone up for years, before a couple years ago. If the price had gone on par with other inflation, we would be paying more than 100 per game by now.
Man $60 used to be the max.
@@Magnusfication fucking and?
@@Magnusfication yeah but inflation is all bullshit regardless.
These companies make billions in pure profit. They only reason anything is "inflating" is to offset higher production costs due to lazy, messy management and lower sales.
It's a big middle finger to the consumer to say "fine if less people want to buy our product we will have to raise prices to make up for the loss in demand."
Unfortunately half of America is stupid so it can't be fixed now.
Can’t wait for Ghost of Tsushima 2 now
There's actually Hip-Hop Music playing in the game whenever Yasuke fights enemies. Hip-Hop Music in a game set in Feudal Japan.....what??? 🤦
Ubisoft and many other companies have used hiphop sounds and music or modern sounds with games for ever now even in AC. Ezio's family theme literally has a fucking electric guitar rift in it dude.
@@xucollfrost7369 You know full well that they put hip hop there because Yasuke is black lmao
@@andresvalenzuela160 no not true go touch some grass bro
@@tomgu2285 sure buddy 🤣
The West is focusing on the hiphop however in Japan the focus is on how the trailer actually showed Chinese music and lanterns, there are countless such cultural inaccuracies in the game, they really dropped the ball on this one.
Choice of music is really something...

kinda racist.

@@isla2202What?
@@isla2202 kinda yeah, its quite confusingand questionable, they said he's african, some said from nigeria or like yong said hes from other country.
But ubisoft chose remixed hiphop with classic japanese music.

Ubisoft has good games and franchises, no idea what you are on about.
We don't want an assassin's creed set in japan anymore. Now we want Ghost of Tsushima set in mainland Japan.
You use of the word mainland makes no sense.
@@jasondavis2995why? He said nothing wrong
@@jasondavis2995Yes it does. Ghost of Tsushima was set on the island of Tsushima. When he says main land he means the mainland of Japan and not just one of their tiny islands. Imagine being so confident with your comment while it being wrong lol.
@@ZombieGojira yeah that's exactly what I was thinking
Ghost of Tsushima was boring, it's basically a walking simulator where you get bombarded with cutscenes you can't even skip. At least Ubisoft's game focuses on actual gameplay.
I just saw the gameplay, and its.. clunky ? Kinda forced ? The parry animation force stop all enemy movement so the combat feels just "animation combat".
And the enemies glow too. That is just so weird.
Do people just not play other games? The enemies glowing signifying whether or not they can be parried has been a thing in many other games and in other a.c games...
@@ghastlyanarchy1720 I meant the orange-ish hue when you break their armor. Or what ever mechanic that is.
@Junos2011 ah, well it's still nothing unfamiliar, glowing weak points and such. Maybe an option to turn it off. But who knows.
Nothing says Feudal Japan like fucking Hip-Hop…
Yikes Ubisoft…
Is it yikes or accurate?
It’s not hip hop.
I watched the gameplay dozens of times. Yasuke fought two lines of enemies and only when the duel happened at the end did that music start. Which I aslo didn't identify as hip-hop. I would bet that music is played through out the game with both characters. You're stretching a ton 😅
I heard this kind of music before. It's Trap & Bass with traditional Japan instrument

They've been regressing since origins and it's so damn sad
They have been regressing since Etzio
Yeah, unfortunate for me, I haven’t bought since origins and still have yet to play it. But the franchise isn’t worth my time or money anymore. If I remember correctly, they stopped following the original storyline years ago and there is nothing “stealth” about these games anymore. It’s just a money grab and has been for years just like every other 6:55 “AAA” game.
I hate modern AC. It's supposed to be about stealth assassinations. There shouldn't be any combat in the game at all.
@gamesfond melee and ranged combat/approaches have always been apart of the series. I feel like people are entitled to the opinion that AC shouldn't have fighting gods and magic and stuff, but to say it shouldn't have melee combat is pretty bold. That's just me tho
Since odyssey their games have only gotten better. Valhalla was my favorite game in the series and mirage was a nice call back to og games. Shadows looks great with ways to use both playstyles. I’ll probably main Naoe, but Yasuke still looks fun.
Ubisoft is really stretching the use of the words Samurai, Assassin, and Stealth.
2:04 as a person who's living in Japan, that's not authentic at all lol... it's like Japan imagined by western tourist people who only went for 1 week to see the castle in Kyoto lol...
real old edo Japan is more claustrophobic looking streets, there's a lot of those remaining places and you can just look at it in google streetview anyway.
Ehhh omg bro idc 😂 it’s a game
A game claiming to be historically accurate tho
@@legendnodensetsu8423don't they claim that with every assassin's creed game? And every one has its own historical inaccuracies. So what?
Because this time they want to push "it's historical fiction" but also "this totally happened". They want to have their cake and eat it too.
Ubisoft: We believe including diversity to combat racism in our games
Also Ubisoft: Darker skin = Rap and Hip Hop
And Ubisoft with AC: Odyssey: Persians wearing turbans.
Ubisoft: We have a black guy protagonist. Every black guy is into rap & hip-hop right? 🤓
It’s not hip hop.
@@HahahMamaman Then what the heck is it? It's not rap (that's purely vocal and not at all musical), but it's certainly hip-hop, or at least hip-hop inspired.
@@SpiderboyN2Jesus to me it’s sounds like Japanese music. It’s just typical boss fight music with Japanese influences.

DO NOT PREORDER IF YOU ARE SMART
If people are smart they will not purchase this game period.
Mindless consumerism has the... fanbase... in a strangle hold. It's not all bad, it's entertaining watching them twist themselves trying to justify pre-ordering a Ubisoft game.
I’m wondering at what point people even the drones that just buy this stuff up without thinking will stop to think “ okay this is way too much money for one game “
Like will it be in the $130’s for the base game or in the $200 price range?
Like at some point in their head this has to sound insane how much money a company be asking for just one game that doesn’t even come with all its content on release.

Nothing gets me excited like listening to rap music in a feudal Japan setting 😂. The devs should have just made Afro Samurai game instead of this dollar store version of Ghost of Tsushima.
Copying my comment from earlier when someone else mentioned Afro Samurai
Afro Samurai had flavor and style imo. It actually leaned into hip-hop culture with the Wu-Tang RZA beats and was original. This looks like slop made to pander to “modern” audiences
@@OMEKS_1 I would have even preferred Samurai Champloo over whatever this is supposed to be.
you're playing GoT with rose tinted glasses. the world is static and empty with lifeless npcs.
Then don’t play the game
An AC during scramble for Africa where we first work for the the white men who promised us that they will help us get rid of our evils, then getting betrayed by them would be so much better than anything Shadows is doing.
And obviously it's gonna be one of the only games based in Africa where we don't play as a white man learning what other white men are doing to black people which will make it one of the unique games for quite some while

its kinda racist tbh
They didn't. Listen again
Why does a hip hop beat play when Yasuke goes into combat? XD
Because black guy
It doesn't sound hip hop to me.

So typical ubislop. Got it will pass

Beat it twice not going for no third run when I got bored on my second run
No way they put hip hop music in the game 💀
😂
They must think all black people are african americans bruh 😭
Ubishit really wants that n-word pass fr.
There's a black guy in it so it needs the hippy hop
They must think all black people are african americans 😭
Good thing theres no hip hop, because Japanese instruments with a synth beat in the background isn't "hip hop."
“This one’s for you!”
Why is there hiphop music playing when we see Yasuke?
If you buy Ubi games in 2024 and especially if you preorder I pity the electricity you waste
And the oxygen they waste too.
This game could be 10 years ahead of its time and I would still never play it. I will never play another Ubisoft game again.
Why? One of the less greedy companies.
Black Flag really was the best PIRATE game, which is surprising, considering that nobody expected an amazing PIRATE experience from an AC title. Sailing the high seas, plundering loot, creating a PIRATE haven. It was such a blast. Now why am I typing "PIRATE" in all caps, you ask? No reason! 🏴☠️🏴☠️
Funny enough, that's the only old-gen ACs i didn't or want to play, like at all. For me, the incentive of being/playing as an Assassin has to be on land, traveling by horse and killing/assassinating target and such. Why the hell would I want to play as a Pirate sailing in the seas and everywhere I see is, water? And yet, ppl love the HELL out of that game, because the novelty of being pirate, which I admit something I will never get it in my lifetime. But if the other like it, good for them. Everyone deserved to experience something good in their life, regardless of how it seen to the other.😄
Authenciticy?
None Yosuke's armor makes him look like a shogun or clan leader
Nowhere to be found.
Assassin's Creed?
I don’t wanna play as a black guy in feudal Japan just like I wouldn’t want to play as a Japanese guy in Zulu S Africa.
So technically if you buy shadows you’re buying it to play as a Kunoichi since the other character is cosplaying as a samurai.
Just like the other ac games where we play as a fictional assassin. Nothings changed.
@@ghastlyanarchy1720 well too be fair they added hip hop music, that's new right?
@@nathanielthomson6600 to assassins creed? Kinda? Didn't the Mirage trailer use hip-hop music?
You're playing to play half of half of the game, yes.
@@ghastlyanarchy1720 honestly I don't know, the comment was made in jest. I checked out of this franchise about 5 entries ago.
One of the many great things about Tsushima is that you got to 'live' in and experience 13th Century Japan. The fact that you're playing as a black African man kind of ruins that. Just my opinion.
Its DEI for you. black people should be represented in all media.
It’s more realistic than GOT, considering Yasuke was a real person.
How?
You know what Naoe's gameplay reminds me of? Old school Tenchu. Mainly Wrath Of Heaven
Sucker Punch understand and have more respect to the nation of Japan than ubishit, I’m waiting for their sequel
Sucker Punch did pay good homage to Japanese history, with only a couple of licenses here and there
Who tf cares. Both games are good
@@HahahMamaman Ass
@@HahahMamaman The gaming community does
@@toblerone1729 wrong a small minority cares. Are you going to ignore a European character in the Caribbean, an Italian in the Ottoman Empire, and a pope, leading an evil organization looking for a magical apple. All in assassins creed.

This game should only feature the Ninja.
I actually agree with this
Then play only as the ninja
AC 1: Blend in, don't be spotted
AC Shadows: Everyone looks at you and bows, stick out like a sore thumb

YongYea is very cautious so that he can guarantee his review copy. LMAO
DONT PREORDER, WAIT FOR RELEASE AND REVIEWS!
We all know what will the reviews be like.
Does he break dance after an excecute?
Break dance while Rapping is very authentic Japanese pastime , dont you know ? (Ubisoft are so degenerate its not even funny at this point )
honestly the music could have been a lot more traditional and dark, understanding its a game about assassinations and corruption
It had to be hip hop because he's black. 😅 none of this game is genuine.
is the game locked at 30fps or something? it looks like the framerate is noticeably inconsistent at times too, at least to me
16:49 they explained they removed all the question mark in the map. It will heavily involve more exploration and discovery for the players.
Ubislop being ubislop as usual
QUESTION: which Samurai game will be do better this year, Assassins Creed Shadows or Rise of the Rōnin?
(I ask because Rise of the Rōnin seems to have been overshadowed)
Rise of the Ronin is pretty good and leans heavily into the historical aspect of Japan. It'll probably end up being better considering the combat is just...way better than anything AC has ever made. It's Team Ninja, there is no competition. Also if AC Shadows has Yokai...just get Nioh 2, that game is a masterpiece.
Rise of the Ronin combat FORCES you to play 1 combat style. Everything is so focused on the parry
Rise of the Ronin.
@@dejuanhickman3175I would understand if you were talking about Ghost because you can only use the katana but Rise has multiple combat styles for each weapon type. The part about parrying is also odd given that you can dodge and block to avoid damage and use ranged weapons mid-combat. If you don't want to rely on parries you don't have to.
What does Hip Hop has to do with Africa!? 🤨
Where’s the hip hop music? Bass = hip hop XD
The score straight up uses trap beats. Ubisoft really decided to use an African main character then go "Hey he black CLEARLY we should use 'black music'" as if all dark skinned humans on this planet are a homogenous culture that listens to Lil yachty.
There's a way to do that. Afro samurai is dope. Samurai Champloo is dope. Ubisoft is the antithesis of dope.
Hip hop is really popular in Japan and it's really not that deep
@@tybirous3417 quit with the fake outrage if you don’t like it don’t play it. Japanese people love hip hop
@@Deytookourjurrrs Brother, the game takes place more than 200 years before hip hop was even conceived, you're taking an L no matter how you swing it.
The shinobi stealth section has Tenchu kind of feel.
100% agree with what you said! The music choice wasn’t it but people saying it’s “racist” is a stretch and overboard
I liked the music but 🤷🏾♂️
This is getting me hyped for Phantom zero Blade
Yasuke will be a story about introspection. Where the samurai may be likened to the Templars
The thumbnail had me thinking a new Armored Core was announced
Why play this game when people can play nioh 1 and 2. They both have Yasuke and a way better combat system than any asscreed game.
Everything seems stiff, there is no fluid movement to the world around you. The actions and World seems stiff like you are saying I think Ghost did combat better, loved the music in it also it helped immerse me in the setting. This just doesn't seem that have an authentic atmosphere to it. Thanks for sharing your time.👍
Watching this just made me Ghost of Tsushima on PC, never played it so I'm looking forward to it!
Haven't been here this early in awhile. Hiya Yong! 😁
For me at this point it doesn't matter if the game looks good, if it comes from a company known for taking away the games you bought then I don't want it
Ubisoft shuts down a 10-year-old online game and they are "taking away games"? Be more melodramatic. Most companies shut down online games after 2 years or less, running online servers is not free.
@@sophieedel6324
>Shuts down 10 year old game
Good thing Half life death match still around, how does valve have unlimited money to runs servers? oh yeah, community servers are a thing. Titanfall 2 have a community server called Northstar because respawn wont update the game.
Besides, If you take the oh so expensive live service out of the Crew and made it playable offline, it will do no difference.
> Most companies shuts down servers 2 years or less
I imagine that's a good deal, spend $60+ for a game playable for 2 years
>running online servers its not free
It was a free game?
Last good AC imo was Rogue. AC used to have amazing melee combat with grounded physics. This looks janky as all hell.
AC combat and animations has been jank af since origins
Wait for this in the bargain bin
Ubisoft haven't evolved, they just move sideways until they give off the illusion they've made a sequel even though they don't fix the fundamental problems of their games.
I have honestly become totally apathetic with these types of games. They all feel the same, so why spend more money on what I already have.
And these days Ubisoft is just a big no go for me.
I like the old AC games, the first 5 or so, I will just replay those and enjoy my time doing so.
Oh boy, they should really pay some respect to real history. It’s such a deal breaker for me, not going to play this. So they created an Afro Samurai who is there killing Japanese people and loot them.
Haha actually
Can't wait for "Everything Ghost of Tsushima does Better than AC Shadows" videos to come out
Start of the trailer and the trees don't even rustle, it's like there's zero wind at all hahah everything look like statues. They only started moving when you get close enough to them so the LOD on the distant assets are static.
"Why does the music sound so hip hop?" Lol. You know why.
Oobisoft is still too chickenshit to have a female lead by herself in a mainline game. Liberation was a AC3 spinoff for the PSP Vita before it was ported to console.
Dont let their "social" agenda posturing fool you.
Codename Hexe is gonna have a sole female lead. The reason why they never made a mainline game with a sole female lead was because one of the higher ups wouldn’t allow it because “women don’t sell”, and that higher up is no longer at the company due to the allegations.
But yeah, Ubisoft are definitely a bigoted company overall.
Can I choose to play as a Japanese Samurai? No? Ok.

Waiting for mods
you can choose to play as a japanese ninja, its is much better in stealth game anyway
@@NoshikiYT what's your problem?
There should've been a character creator at least.
Combat looks awesome what are you on about?
The first game was all about blending in with the crowd. I don't see how exactly you do that in feudal Japan while wearing full samurai armor, emblazoned with a giant Oda crest, sporting dreadlocks, and with skin as dark as night. The only way you could stand out more is if you were sporting a couple _sashimono_ flags.
Honestly, any bad guy with two brain cells to rub together would be able to spot you a mile off, if for no other reason than how the crowd is moving.
I love how so many content creators ignore one of the biggest issues people have with this game when it's so in your face front centered. Millions of Japanese people, one of the most richest culture and history known to mankind and they picked the single black dude who was there for 2 years. When you look at the people who made this game and compare it to the studio who made Ghost of Tsushima, one studio respects Japanese culture and the other spits on it.
They picked him because they didn’t want to be compared to GoT. There’s so many games with a Japanese samurai or protagonist they wanted to be unique. Yasuke is a cool character with a cool story, so I don’t care that he’s in the game.
Nah no one cares if the game ends up playing well, the political shit doesn't matter when money is made and their preorders are already through the roof with outlaws and shadows. Nothing will change, just give a shit review if the game has bad aspects so quality goes up. Thats all we can do, nothing else matyers.
@@HahahMamaman💯
Yeah, because SP can pick and come up with original unpopular Japan setting that ppl don't usually see and depicted in media, doesn't mean other devs can't do the same with a popular historical Japan setting with a unique cast, can they? Because having a foreigner, a Black Foreigner, like you said, is a spit on Japan. So why Japanese have media like anime about him where he's promoted more than what he's really was? Why can Japanese do that? Meanwhile this company also want to include that in their game and cannot or not allowed to?
I was over Assassins Creed about 10 years ago. It peaked with Black Flag and i noped out sometime around Syndicate. And i think i stayed too long.
Yea I tapped out with Syndicate too. I was so uninterested in the series by that point I couldn't play past 2 hours of that game. This Japan setting came way too late
This is the same team, somethings never change.
Assassin's Creed Black Flag is still the best PIRATE game ever. Who knew that an AC game would be an amazing PIRATE experience. Why am I typing "PIRATE" in all caps, you ask? No reason! 🏴☠️🏴☠️
*Retainer, not Samurai.
They did my boy Yasuke dirty. The potential for actually fleshing out character development with fiction and non-fiction being missed is a huge letdown 😓
Oh boy now we can play with the exaggerated swagger of a black samurai
This was a showcase, right? So maybe the townsfolk should actually face the character when they bow, instead of bowing to a fence...This was the big reveal, should have done better.
I watched Inside Out 2 and went crazy when saw your character you voiced.
Remember, NO PRE-ORDER
All the controversy aside, it’s just the same old mid slop. Wait for sale if you wanna play.
If this looks the same to you to Valhalla and Mirage uou're baiting lmao
Okay, why is the NPCs not commenting on the fact that he does not look anything like the rest of the people? It's like an American visiting Africa and kids keep tagging along because they never saw a white person before. My problem with the protagonist being black is that he is never presented as one. Oh is just another samurai that happens to be black. This is horrible, culture is based on traditions and their people, if you bring a foreigner to Japan of course they are going to act very differently. I would love to see NPCs not trusting you because you are black or taking their children away, and other people learning to appreciate who you are and speaking good about you to others. This is why it feels so forced, like if they made this change at the last minute so they can be more "inclusive". And the same thing happens with the female protagonist OMFG.
What do you mean!? Don't you hear the rap music!? lol
All of you people sound like copy paste NPCs at this point.
@dtanobo He speaks truth.
i have been to africa with some white people and they say white people all look the same , it is funny and i obviously had to give them crap about being white for the rest of the job we were there for. on a side note africa is fucking hot so dont go there unless you got a spatula to peel your balls from your legs.
@@homebound56 They haven't played the game. They don't know a moment like that isn't in the game.
This just makes me want to play Ghost of Tsushima rn.
They also added a hip hop beat with Japanese instruments cause he's a black samurai in Japan... Cuz he's BLACK. "He's black so it needs to have hip hop"
It's like the "He's Asian so he must know Kung Fu" phenomenon in the 80's. Ubisoft say they hate racism and here they are being racist. Bravo
Going to wait to buy the ultimate edition when it’s on sale for $30 in a year.
I guess someone got paid alot by ubisoft LOL
弓耳 目力 LAMO
While you got paid nothing to be an eejit.
let’s be honest , not a lot of us are gonna get it day 1 an wait for 6 months to go buy an be on sale for $20 😂
Or wait for it to hit Gamepass. I don't even think it's worth the Gamepass subscription tbh
I got it day 1.
will get it in year 2.
Or just never buy it at all.
If they were gonna make yasuke the majn melee fighter they have to invest a lot more in melee. Compared to other samurai games that felt slow and lacking. Naoes gameplay looked pretty fun though with all the mechanics and stealth flavor
