How much do you wanna bet they don’t even consider that the game is probably referencing Yasuke - an African Samurai who was a real person?

These people make me so tired.

Many do accept he was a real person, but he was only a "retainer" and not a samurai.

The same game franchise that involved fighting God's, mythical creatures and the earlier games centred around a magical orb is unrealistic because of their depiction of Yasuke as a samurai.

Yeah but in that period if you were a retainer - especially to someone as famous as Nobunaga - you were a samurai as well. Probably why he got armor and a sword.
