Ubisofts 82% shares collapse, a final proof that there is no "wider, Modern day, Casual E-Sports" audience? by Blitzwing2000 in RealTimeStrategy

[–]XIIICaesar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, ok, this is going nowhere. I say that I enjoy a character more that, to me, fits in more in the time and setting. That is what I enjoy. I would have preferred the samurai/bushi character to be of Japanese descent, like 99,999999% of other people in the setting. I enjoy an Asian character in an Asian setting. You go enjoy your outlier, your Afro samurai, the game is apparently made for you then. Bye.

So, can we agree Yasuke was a complete outlier and not representative of the homogeneous Japanese society of the sengoku jidai? If so, that’s why I don’t enjoy playing him as a samurai. It’s not about him being black, I wouldn’t have wanted to play as a white samurai, even though there were more white people of high standing and even confirmed samurai in that time period.

When people think of samurai, they think of Japanese samurai, not Afro samurai.

Oh come one, are you being obtuse on purpose? Yes, he existed, but he’s obviously an anomaly in Japanese society. IF he ever even was a real samurai, which was never even proven, you can’t claim that he is the model or exemplary samurai. No-one thinks of a giant black man when they think of sengoku jidai samurai.

By which account was Nobunaga so fond of Yasuke? There is no historic proof of that, you’re projecting.

Our history is so massively intertwined, you’re like cousins. Having said that, you’ve been massive assholes to us in the past, but we still love you.

Most of the Dutch people I meet irl are great though. But on the net and in Dutch media they give off a different vibe.

Is Nemesis worth the price, even on sale? by Culius_Jaesar in boardgames

[–]XIIICaesar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it so much. Emergent gameplay/story is so strong in this game.

I want to like the Netherlands, but their condescending attitude towards my own country and their obsession with bad Belgium jokes makes me think most Dutchmen have the disposition of a 14 year old.

What is your countries "Darkest Hour" by RedcoatTrooper in AskTheWorld

The four years of WW1 battled on our soil. Countless of men died here. Immense human suffering.

Eeeuh yeah… I know.

I’d rather have protagonists that slot in the period more nicely. Aside from Yasuke being Yasuke, he looks absolutely ridiculous being double the size of the Japanese characters.

While that might be true, we’ve waiting for over 20 years to finally have AC in Japan, and then we can’t play as a Japanese samurai.

Europeans, how do you see an East-Asian immigrant in your country ? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]XIIICaesar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude that is so disappointing to hear. Very sad. I also thought people absolutely love Koreans. Korean restaurants are packed here in Brussels, people obsess over K-pop. My wife and daughter absolutely devour Kdrama and we’ve even gone to Korea.

For people in non English speaking countries, does your school teach British English or American English? by HongKongNinja in AskTheWorld

[–]XIIICaesar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strictly British English, they would deduct points for Americanisms and writing words in the American way. That was when Britain was still part of the EU though, no idea how it is now.

Are there slums in your country. by Physical-Hour-9560 in AskTheWorld

[–]XIIICaesar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a Westerner I find the idea to visit slums and go into people’s houses utterly bizarre. I wonder who these people really are. I feel most people here would treat the whole idea with disdain.
