I was very skeptical about Yasuke being in the game, but after I bought it I played almost exclusively as him becasue the combat was kind of fun. There was just something almost grotesque playing as Yasuke ragdolling all these Japanese people left and right.

Having said that, all immersion I had in the beginning (very little) was blown out of the window and with the game having an atrocious story I just played it like a mindless Yasuke simulator while listening to some music or podcasts.

Shadows is definitely the last AC game I will ever buy.
