  Ubisoft's new work "Assassin's Creed: Shadow" set in the Warring States Period of Japan was officially released today (20th). A large number of videos, live broadcasts and other contents about games have emerged on the Internet, which naturally also contains the "love elements" of the two protagonists that many players are curious about. Among them, many players discovered that Yasuke could actually sleep with his lord Oda Nobunaga's sister "Ashi", which caused netizens to joke that everything about "Oda Hiroki" was taken away.

As Ubisoft previously emphasized, the two protagonists in "Assassin's Creed: Shadow" can each develop romantic relationships with different characters. Miyasuke can choose both men and women, without any restrictions. However, one of the characters that can develop relationships has sparked heated discussions among netizens because the object is Oda Nobunaga's sister "Ashi". In the game, Yasuke and Ashi directly slept with each other until the next day. When Yasuke woke up, she found that Ashi had left.

This inexplicable plot surprised many netizens. After all, Yasuke was a servant under Oda Nobunaga, and according to the social norms at that time, it was almost impossible for such a thing to happen. Many Japanese netizens pointed out that Ashi's love story is very sad: she first married Asai Nagamasa due to a political marriage, and later her husband died due to an opposition to Oda Nobunaga, and she remarried Shibata Katsuki. Whether it is the timeline, the background of the times, or the importance of bloodline and married identity of Asahi, she is unlikely to become interested in Yasuke. Therefore, netizens criticized Ubisoft for lacking historical texts and believed that this behavior was an insult to Ashi.

Many netizens also pointed out that Mikasuke's behavior was simply ungrateful. If Oda Nobunaga knew about this, Yasuke would have been dealt with long ago. Some Taiwanese netizens even concluded that Oda Nobunaga's role, achievements, sister, etc. in "Assassin's Creed" were taken away by Yasuke. He directly played the joke and changed Oda Nobunaga's name to "Oda Hiroki", and joked: "Nobunaga, you can't win."
