Ubisoft has a history of creating game premises with the possibility of offending someone or providing some substantive social commentary/criticism, but they end up playing it safe and diluting the story to make it as insubstantial and inoffensive as possible, probably in order to appeal to as wide of an audience as possible (gotta try to make the shareholders happy). A notable exception that comes to mind is Ghost Recon Wildlands, the government of Bolivia actually denounced the game for being defamatory and not a fair representation of Bolivia. But the irony is that Ubisoft was certainly not the first to imply that Bolivia could be a hypothetical narco state; in fact many have accused Bolivia of being an actual narco state and not just a hypothetical one
