Game would’ve pissed off half of the US who believes the Civil War was about States Rights & not slavery despite the Confederacy declaration saying they are doing this because they wanted slaves

I'm glad Rockstar doesn't fold like a cheap plastic chair.

We had Freedom Cry and AC3 and you're telling me THIS is too controversial?

Ok Just read this. They canceled it because the game would have you play as a black guy who escaped from slavery and would be fighting the confederate and KKK and the backlash from Shadows was too much for them to continue. Kinda lame, ngl. But whatever. Whiners gonna whine

They cancelled it because you'd be playing as a freed slave, killing kkk members, and one mission would be that story about a jew killing someone and framing a black guy, so you have to clear his name and lynch the jew

In a shocking twist you played as a freed Japanese slave.

Would have been cool, something like Darkest of Days.

Ubisoft does not have the maturity to handle such a controversial time period with any kind of subtlety or objectivity. Thank goodness they cancelled it.

This does sound cool. I understand their reasoning for canceling it and don’t blame them. Blame America.

With Ubisoft it's always one step forward and two steps back. This game would've made a RIDICULOUS amount of money. I would've livestreamed it and done two straight playthrough, talking shit to everybody who had a problem with it the ENTIRE time.

Ubisoft is so fucking stupid. Yasuke was outrage because of the fact it was based in Japan. Do you know how hard a DJango game would go.

Absoloute pussies it’s one of the perfect settings for AC shame. too terrified of political backlash

Ubisoft would’ve turned it into another checklist sim. “56 out of the 75 plantations of have been taken down” finish all 75 and unlock the Harriet Tubman Templar outfit

Wish we could get an Assassin’s Creed game set in 1910’s about Italian immigrants in New York who are descendants of Ezio Auditore

Probably because they didn’t know how they could make a trans black lesbian be the star

Replying to @Wario64
And they were right to do so. This is a really bad time for that sort of game, especially if it were handled as 'gracefully' as Shadows.

This game sounds awesome but it would piss off the worst people on the internet so, of course, we can’t have that.

They should have done a civil war one where the player is black and gets to help free slaves. Just watching the losers blow gaskets over it would have been worth the making and release.

Why are people taking this Decision as a political statement instead of Ubisoft just being extremely incompetent and not knowing what to do with any of their IPs

Why the fuck are we bowing to MAGA nazis lmao? Normalize beating up nazis and klansmen again. Why would you be upset about the KKK getting terrorised unless you yourself are a racist pos in which case your opinion has no value
