Last night, Musk started tweeting out about Assassin's Creed Shadows - specifically, in relation to streamer Hasan Piker, who was streaming the game and had flagged his content as an ad. This prompted Musk to call Piker a "fraud," before adding: "'Sell-out' would be more accurate. Objectively, he is promoting a terrible game just for the money."

The article discusses the controversy surrounding Elon Musk's criticism of the new RPG game "Assassin’s Creed Shadows," which features a black samurai, Yasuke, as one of its protagonists. Musk questioned the historical accuracy of this character, leading to a sharp response from the game's official account, which humorously suggested that Musk's information might have come from someone playing his "Path of Exile 2" account. This exchange highlights the ongoing debate about diversity and historical representation in video games, with Ubisoft defending their creative choices by emphasizing the game's fictional nature and the inclusion of diverse characters to enrich the narrative. The article also touches on the broader implications of such criticisms in the gaming community, where calls for historical accuracy often clash with the desire for inclusive storytelling.
