Transcript
00:00Yosuke actually has a gay romance in Assassin's Creed Shadows with a character named Ibuki who identifies as
00:10Non-binary they them after some flirting they kiss each other bro. It looks like he's high as fuck. Oh
00:21This is the face you give like I don't know how many times I've walked in like in high school
00:28The the class that you have after lunch and your stoner friends walk in past you in the class
00:36with that fucking face
00:40You know like absolutely right is this real yeah cuz when we were in school
00:45Uh, this is like when salvia was getting popular and we have people do it to shit all the time
00:50Yeah, great for the meme template. Yes walking in. I know that stoner thing. Yes, exactly and
00:56Historically accurate, by the way
00:58Yosuke has a relationship no naga sister. I know we're gonna get to that. So
01:03Yosuke, apparently you can choose between you can have a
01:08Relationship with a non-binary person right here. And so I guess this is them and
01:15I don't really know
01:18It's a bit odd to me that every non-binary character that Western video games
01:25Like if I look at can I get a list a list of non-binary
01:31Characters in video games. Yeah, do we have a list of these because a lot of them just end up looking weird
01:39Why is it that every character that has a non-binary?
01:44Sorry has a non-normative
01:46Sexuality is always caricatured in some kind of a way
01:50Am I am I crazy for seeing this
01:54Cuz like isn't it a certain point like I
01:58Like all of these characters, I don't think are visually appealing at all
02:03None of these characters are
02:05Attractive or visually appealing. Why is it that all of these characters that are not attractive or visually appealing are all non-binary? I
02:13Feel like this is a like if I was non-binary I'd be like what the fuck what the fuck is this?
02:21Why is it every time that somebody puts me in a video game? I look weird
02:25What the fuck is this?
02:28Yes, true, yeah, I'd be pissed off people say it's reality
02:32There's plenty of people that I'm sure are non-binary that that don't look weird
02:35But anyway, so not an Assassin's Creed though in Assassin's Creed. Yosuke can choose to have a gay romance
02:44Or this is the good one
02:47Yosuke can also oh, oh, this is the clip here. Let's watch the clip as
02:52Someone part Japanese. I've always wished a game studio would allow me to explore my ancient heritage as a gay black samurai
03:06You know, it's so funny
03:08This is I can't wait to do that because I hate playing the girl boy. I just wanna play the guys won't play him, man
03:14I do I've been waiting on this for a long time, man
03:22Hmm
03:25The girl plays better to be honest, that's scary. Don't tell me that
03:29Okay, let's go ahead and watch it. So this is one of the clips from the the gay relationship. I
03:36Do not think I've ever seen you quite so tongue-tied
03:41Not yet at least I hope you aren't easily chilled
03:48Do you think someone might see us
03:52Maybe
03:57Do you care
04:04Not at all
04:07That's the face
04:10Am I wrong though that this is absolutely the face
04:15This is absolutely the face that like your friends would give you in a high school after they got high as fuck at lunch
04:24Absolutely is that's the face right? Yeah, I know coming back to class. Yeah
04:41Is that a girl or boy? Yes. Oh, wow. Wow
04:46We got to make sure that we get this scene
04:48I have to be can you so can you have multiple relationships or do you have to choose?
04:54Because like so apparently you either do this or let me see if I can find the rest of it
05:00This is what the the even better part is. So
05:04Yosuke there are at least right now two known
05:08Relationships that he can have in the story
05:11The first one is again with the non-binary character and the second one get this is with
05:18Oda Nobunaga's sister
05:20You
05:35Who was married that's what people were saying. Oh my god
05:41Is that why it's trashed here? It's not genuine. They're looking for a gotcha moment. Why look at the I don't know. Let's see here
05:48Did you know historically Nobunaga killed his sister's husband two times he killed his sister's husband himself two times
05:53I don't know. Why'd he kill her? No, why'd he kill him? Maybe it was it maybe
05:58Actually, I don't know
05:59I mean everything that I've ever read about Oda Nobunaga is the guy was just a massive fucking dickhead
06:04Like just everything about him was an asshole. And so yeah, every every time I ever heard a story about him
06:10It's a fucking asshole. So but you know
06:13Probably the same reason I'm not gonna say it again
06:16Probably the same reason right? Anyway, let's see here. So this is the the cinematic from
06:23the the the relationship with Oda Nobunaga's sister
06:31This was filmed on a Nokia phone
06:35In the 1580s of Japan they didn't have smartphones yet
06:46I do
06:50Someone once said it like this you are a damn yours daughter. I am just a samurai
07:04Let's oh bro now we must part let's enjoy the moment with the little heart with the arrow through it. Oh
07:12Wow
07:15They do a witchy I
07:18I have learned something in my battles time is a fail
07:25And all we have left is here
07:38Damn sweet fucks the shit out of her man
07:45Damn all right
07:55That's crazy
08:08Wow
08:10By the way, Oh Ichi Nobunaga's sister is known in Japan for her honor and faithfulness
08:28Is that really
08:30Wow, not anymore. Yeah, not anymore boys. Oh
08:35Man that's fucking funny and this is someone's fantasies is someone at Ubisoft maybe right notice how we get a gay kiss
08:42But not a straight kiss. Yeah, true. True. True. True. She's married twice. This is super fiction
08:49Also said she was the one of the most beautiful women in Japan at the time
08:52So I doubt it even more
08:54Japan is gonna be thrilled when this piece of historical fiction talk about a middle finger to their culture wall
09:00assassins creed shadows
09:02This is just
09:07Yeah, oh my god, oh no you think it's like girl, oh wow
09:17Desecration gets worse. Come on guys. You're in really surprised
09:19They added you Suke going around talking people in this game. It's freaking main armor design is the bull does
09:26It's the bull design
09:33You
09:38Yo, what the fuck is going on I know right, how do you do this? Oh my god
09:48Japan racism against foreigners is justified. Yeah, I feel like with a lot of countries racism isn't fair
09:56But when people from Japan are racist, I'm like, yeah, I think I get it
10:02Yeah, I can see that for yeah. Yeah, cuz you know, like yeah. Oh
10:07man, I
10:12Turned his high face into a emote. That's perfect, man
10:15Japan xenophobic justified I guess so right? Oh my fucking god and you Suke fucking both the daughter and the oh
10:24god, this is
10:26This is ridiculous man, they could just invented a new cousin to pair him off with jeez
10:32Yeah, you could have added or it could have just been
10:35It's not be a slave fight one battle and lose your legacy is being humiliation fast forward to today
10:41Gets depicted sleeping with the daughter of the guy you were serving get depicted as the savior of Japan who writes this a
10:50Bunch of white liberal French people write it. That's why that's who wrote it. Yeah, exactly, right. Oh
10:58My fucking god, this is funny. And yeah, you can't make this shit up. I know it's amazing. What's this?
11:05Look into your eyes and
11:08See into your heart wait
11:12Wait, this is it. Wait, this is another gay one
11:17Wait, how many gate look into your how gay is this guy? Oh
11:22My god, this is crazy

11:36How is everything getting worse I can't wait to play this more today this is gonna be fucking fun man
11:42this is gonna be so good and
11:44So he's double gay. Yeah, he is and so somebody posted this dialogue from an old Assassin's Creed game
11:52I never have watched this I never played it before but I'll play it for you guys
11:55We'll see if there's a bit of a difference between the this and the new ones. I
12:01Have the piece of Eden
12:04Get out of my way old man, I
12:08Gave you everything and yet it's never enough. Yes today. He intends to poison you
12:21Would not listen to reason father
12:26Do you not see I?
12:29Control all of this
12:33If I want to live I live if I want to take I take
12:42If I want you to die you die
12:50Where is the piece of Eden I know where it is
12:55And you did not tell me he had taken it
12:59Chesiree, it's me your queen. You are my sister. Nothing more
13:07Where is it?
13:09You never loved me where is the apple tell me
13:17Tell me
13:20Jesus and
13:22and so it went from that to
13:26Hmm do you care
13:33Not at all
13:48Wow well there it is boys
13:55Are the frogs gay and I don't know yeah, maybe even the frogs are gay in this game. I'm not sure I'm not
14:01I don't know, but yeah, so we good. Yeah, I don't know how this happened one's a work of fiction the other work is a fantasy
14:08Yeah, right and anyway, so this has been going on now people have been talking about this a lot
14:14And I don't know really what's gonna happen with this
14:17I have no idea, but it seems like a lot of people from Japan are very unhappy about this
14:24Let me see if I can pull it up and find it
14:28And see if there's any more information
14:30Let me go back
14:32Japanese Prime Oh No
14:39The Prime Minister of Japan commented on the game
14:42I
14:49Must say
14:51Sonokuni Nobunka Toka
14:54Shukyo Toka so voluntary
14:57Sonke no no more to do Kotoa
14:59What is your toes in the Kotoa Tomote?
15:01We must see so they're not care about guy Koto you know what they can I don't want to miss
15:04But work me to stay so you could also sense a hunch take a never-never see
15:09So what the fuck is he saying?
15:18Let's go ahead and I'll read it here.
15:22Prime Minister Ishiba surprisingly responded to the Assassin's Creed Shadows issue.
15:27Representative Kata asked the question at the House of Councilors Budget Committee regarding
15:32the act of belittling other cultures in games and social media and resulting in tourism
15:39pollution.
15:42Tourism pollution.
15:45Oh my God.
15:46Can you say it any better than that?
15:51Wow.
15:54Oh my fucking God.
15:56And we will not give up in silence.
15:58It's extremely important that we send out the message that as Japanese citizens, we
16:02will not tolerate this kind of behavior.
16:04And this is the prime minister of Japan.
16:07Maybe I'm not entirely sure.
16:09Oh my God.
16:10Of how the shadows issues were discussed by Japan's prime minister.
16:13Well, is there any explanation that this is actually about Assassin's Creed Shadows and
16:21not just about like live streaming?
16:23Because like this could also be about live streaming too.
16:26It's in case show by the games part covered the prime minister's response in a diet has
16:31more details.
16:32GameSpark set also said that the game was revised so that temples and shrines could
16:36not be destroyed.
16:38Is this the only in the Japanese version?
16:40It's unclear.
16:41So yes, UK is to be released on the 20th questioned in the diet over video destruction inside
16:51the shrine to the French game.
16:53Prime minister respect culture.
16:56The issue of Assassin's Creed Shadows has been debated in parliament.
17:00Oh my God.
17:01Well, um, YouTuber, uh, show I condo.
17:09I know that guy.
17:10Don't I?
17:11Yeah.
17:12Holy shit.
17:13Dude.
17:14They've got the Jeff.
17:15This shit is so bad.
17:16It's got the Japanese government involved.
17:17Yeah.
17:18No, I'll watch it.
17:19Cause yeah.
17:20He's a.
17:21He's a.
17:22He's a.
17:23He's a.
17:24He's a.
17:25He's a.
17:26He's a.
17:27He's a.
17:28He's a.
17:29This is so fun.
17:30I'll watch it.
17:31Yeah.
17:32I'll watch it cause.
17:33Yeah.
17:34He's a, he's a Japanese guy and he speaks American also and so.
17:35Yeah, he can explain it a lot better than fucking Google translate can, so we will look
17:39at that.
17:40Just give me a few minutes.
17:41And I want to scroll down and look at some more of these summarizing the world of Western
17:45gaming and three images Jesus Christ.
17:52Concord has arrived in Assassin's creed shadows.
17:56Wow.
17:57Non-binary do not exist in feudal Japan.
17:59They forced it there for Assassin's Creed Shadows.
18:02Yeah.
18:03Um, a lot of people feel that way.
18:05What a surprise.
18:06And, uh, this is nuts, man.
18:09Only one straight romance I've seen myself.
18:12Oh, and also, um, this isn't really a big surprise, but the, uh, female
18:17relationship in Assassin's Creed Shadows, uh, let me see if I can just pull it up.
18:21Uh, Assassin's Creed Romance.
18:30So yes.
18:31And so that you can also have the two girls making out as well.
18:34And it's not really a big surprise.
18:36Wait, there's more than one scene of this.
18:44It's a 40 minute video.
18:46Oh my God.
19:00Look at Ubisoft stock.
19:01Okay.
19:02Let me look at it in a minute.
19:04Oh, this is, this is another scene.
19:06Lust.
19:07Lust is a journey of a thousand steps that begins with a kiss.
19:16They really, uh, they really went in on this one, huh?
19:33Man, look at the dialogue in this game is very, um, what's the way that I can
19:39explain the dialogue in this game?
19:42Um, it could be better.
19:47Yeah.
19:48I would say, yeah, that's probably where I would go with.
19:50Yeah.
19:51I'd say it could be better.
19:54This is another one.
19:56Watch where you point that thing.
19:58What's wrong?
19:59You got your man.
20:01Does my tip ball make you nervous?
20:04I like your tip.
20:05Oh, wow.
20:10No, I like dangerous weapons.
20:15Hmm.
20:17What about dangerous women?
20:20Even better.
20:24We'll see.
20:34Wow.
20:38Wow.
20:40That's really impressive.
20:43That's really, really impressive.
20:46Oh my God.
20:49Yeah.
20:50Garbage.
20:50Dialogue.
20:50Not even trying to hide it.
20:52It's just the dialogue.
20:53It's just mediocre.
20:54Like, I don't care.
20:55They want to have a lesbian relationship.
20:57I mean, I'm not going to complain about that, but like, it's just, it's funny
21:01to see this kind of stuff happen.
21:03Right.
21:03What is this here?
21:04I want more than friendship.
21:06You have lovely.
21:07Oh my God.
21:09Wow.
21:13Oh Jesus.
21:17That's amazing.
21:18Well, there it is.
21:19Gentlemen, uh, assassin's creed shadows is, uh, it's apparently.
21:28It's apparently so problematic that the Japanese prime minister
21:33has made a comment about it.
21:39Yes.
21:40That's where we're at.
21:47This is amazing.
21:49The stocks.
21:50Oh, Oh, Oh, right.
21:51Let me check the stocks right now.
22:13I'm so stupid.
22:15I'm so stupid.
22:15You guys can't see it.
22:23Look at that.
22:26Oh no.
22:30Oh no.
22:33Wow.
22:35It's going to be a penny stock.
22:36Well, let's, let's compare it to where it was at.
22:39Right.
22:40And so if, are they cooked?
22:41Well, let's find out.
22:43So this is the five year.
22:47So it used to be $20 and now it's $2.
22:53So if you invested a hundred dollars, you now have $10.
23:04If you invested a thousand dollars, you now have a hundred dollars.
23:10If you invested $10,000, you now have a thousand dollars.
23:17That's right.
23:17That's the wrong stock.
23:18It doesn't matter.
23:19This stock is a representative sample of the European stock.
23:22If you look at the European stock, you'll see that the, uh, the graph and the
23:27trend is different, is the same, although the numbers are different.
23:31And so, yeah, it's, it's a representative sample because it's
23:34one fifth of the shares of the company.
23:37And so a minus 80% over five years.
23:40Yes.
23:40Minus 78.59%.
23:43This, in my opinion is catastrophic.
23:48It is absolutely catastrophic.
23:50And let me explain why this company, and also it was even higher in 2018.
23:59Look at that.
24:01The reason why it's so bad is because Assassin's Creed was supposed
24:07to be their ace in the hole.
24:09It was supposed to be their big game and like, okay, we're going to go and we're
24:15going to release this game and it's going to turn things around.
24:17Everybody's going to buy the game.
24:19People are going to like the game, et cetera.
24:21Right.
24:21It's not out yet though.
24:23Yes.
24:23But here's the problem.
24:31Let me think of a way to say this.
24:38Do you think it's going to go up massively tomorrow?
24:41Because like, we already know like the revenues are out.
24:44Yeah.
24:44You already have reviews of the game.
24:46You have people discussing the game.
24:48You have the game already, you know, like in, in the eyes of the public.
24:53So investors now are able to have a gauge on user sentiment of the game.
25:00Right.
25:00Is it a perfect gauge?
25:02No, it's not.
25:03But like, it is a, um, like, like, do you really think that the
25:07stock wouldn't have gone up?
25:08Like think about from software, the moment that Elden Ring review embargo went away.
25:14I bet it started going up like this, right?
25:16Probably it did.
25:17And I would assume this is the case.
25:19This will probably be the case with Grand Theft Auto six as well, or
25:21any of these other games.
25:23So the, the idea that like, Oh, well, the game doesn't release till tomorrow.
25:28So it's going to go up tomorrow.
25:29It won't.
25:29And also, even if it goes up a little bit, here's the problem is that
25:34Assassin's Creed in order to get the company out of the hole that it's in
25:39right now, like if you guys have ever played like D and D or whatever, and
25:42it's like, you have to roll a 19 or a 20 in order to like, I don't know, even hit
25:46a monster, like even to be able to hit the monster, you have to roll a 19 or 20.
25:50Yeah.
25:51Right.
25:52Basically you have to roll a crit to even hit it.
25:54Exactly.
25:55They had to roll in that 19 or 20.
25:59And I think they rolled an 11.
26:03And some people, maybe they rolled a nine.
26:07That's not so good, is it?
26:08They needed to have a Valhalla was woke as fuck and that saved the company.
26:13Shadows is better.
26:16Valhalla was woke as fuck and it saved the company.
26:19I just think that people, there's a lot more people that would rather be a
26:22Viking than be Yasuke the Samurai.
26:25I honestly, I think that's the truth.
26:28Now I could be wrong about that, but, uh, I think that that's
26:31kind of the way it would be.
26:32So LaMal, no.
26:34Why not both?
26:34Well, because people are going to have a preference, right?
26:37Everybody's going to have a preference.
26:38Valhalla was not woke.
26:40Yeah.
26:40I just, I don't know about that, but, um, anyway, it does seem like I
26:43remember when Valhalla came out, there was no conversation about this
26:46kind of stuff back then.
26:48And, uh, there were people would bring up stuff like this back in the day too,
26:52but, uh, it just wasn't as important.
26:55And so it does look like Ubisoft.
26:57I mean, if you can't see how this is massively problematic, that one of the
27:03biggest games that I think they were banking on it being a like blockbuster
27:07hit success, like, let me go ahead and ask and look at this up, right?
27:12Um, estimated budget, estimated budget, assassins Creed shadows between
27:21250 and 350 million, right?
27:25And so if you do, and you look at that, that calculation and you say it's
27:30between 200 and 300 million, right there in 53 and 50 million, uh, let's go
27:34ahead and look at some numbers here.
27:35Let's see what that would be.
27:37So if you're selling the game at $70 each, right, let's say 250 million.
27:42How many copies would you need to do it?
27:45Well, you'd need to sell 3 million copies, right?
27:49Will the game sell 3 million copies?
27:51And this is no sales, no cut from steam, nothing.
27:55Just a raw 3 million copies.
27:57Will it sell this many?
27:59I think maybe it will.
28:00I would assume actually it will sell more than 2 million copies.
28:04I do because Vale guard like sold probably a million copies.
28:08And I think it's more popular than that.
28:10So, and then you also have the minus 30% for steam as well.
28:15And then also the cost of the game, uh, et cetera.
28:17Right.
28:18And there's other costs that like the PR and this is the
28:21production budget, right?
