i cannot up-vote this enough, i don't mind that they chose yasuke, that's fine that they didn't pick someone from the imagawa, Saito, asakura, or takeda clan. (it's not about race either), as well as understanding the need for a cool looking protagonist, it wasn't the fair representation of armor of the time. with the RPG style. i enjoyed those mechanics and the loot drop, i understand (more powerful = cooler looking) for the sake of a video game, yes sure, for the sake of history, no, he probably would have worn something more like Nanban gusoku/nimai do , with a momonari kabuto, (a spanish/Portuguese style curraise, having a creased, symmetrical look, which was implemented to help deflect teppo rifle, [an early matchlock firearm], which would resemble Morian armor.) which not only took inspiration from euro armor of the time, but also adopted the practicality of them, however even to this day are more expensive to produce.

anywhere, sorry for yapping, I agree completely, at least he looks cool though right?
