  The black samurai dude is already prevalent in Japanese pop culture. The folks going around saying that’s the problem are just confused and dumb. There’s no real issue there The issue lies in how things are portrayed that make the game look not distinctly Japanese, but more western “Asia wonderland”. I lived in Japan for over 10 years, I have Japanese family, so I pick up on some of this. It definitely gives the vibe of a Canadian studio did as much “Japan” ™ as they possibly could without having to actually go there or consult genuine professionals on cultural nuance or visual identity.

  I say this as someone who has only seen promotional materials and not the game itself, though. So the game itself could prove me wrong. And I don’t care if you enjoy the game or not, I’m just sharing why it kind of turns me off.

  People have survived without tools like this for thousands upon thousands in years. I think we can afford to wait a few more until there’s a privacy-respecting method behind it. I know we won’t, but I’m sure we could have.
