I got to the part when you can switch between Naoe and Yasuke and I gotta say, his play style is extremely boring. I don't know if it's because I'm playing this and Rise of the Ronin at the same time and RotR has so far vastly superior melee combat but I'll be sticking to Naoe for the rest of the game.

You ain’t slick chud, major side eye, hope era catch onto this racist

It's a weird situation because I can't imagine Ubisoft wasn't aware of the problem. It just really makes Yasuke look like a token addition they didn't know what to do with. Not sure when they decided upon adding him to the game but I guess once he was in there was no going back. "Ubisoft removes black main character" would be a nightmare headline. I guess they could have made him just another Assassin but then it would be hard to justify how the one big black man in Japan can blend in anywhere.

I wonder if they had two teams in two locations working on the two characters separately
