Cancelled because a black man killing the Klan, after all the morons complaining about Yasuke, was going to be too controversial of a video game in our (Americans’) “unstable” country.
Well racists ARE a protected class now and this would hurt their poor poor fee fees.
Fuck yes. A slave that takes on the slave owning Templar? Sign me up all day, I want to run into a confederate camp and crush them.
This would be quite the game and I can see the far right bitching about it for sure. But man, I want to see an Assassin Lincoln. Imagine that? Tall boy Lincoln dawning an Assassin’s hood? Would make me actually excited for a Ubisoft AC title again. After the let down that was shadows, I might explore the Witch AC coming up…but nothing else excites me from them.

Freedom Cry, the standalone expansion for Black Flag, was essentially this concept in the Carribean. You play as Adewale, a slave turned pirate turned Assassin, and liberate plantations.
Lincoln would be cool to see in flashbacks, but I don’t think he’d have been a good assassin at the time of his death. It’d have been sick, shame that Ubisoft is full of pussies.
AC is so moldy Ubisoft could only get me excited with a nice big Grow Home / Up sequel with no microtransactions, no ingame shop and everything unlockable through playing.
They would complain, and it would be a self report… If you’re offended by a slave killing slaveowners, then you’re a piece of shit and nobody should fucking care what you think.

Ubisoft will not tolerate anything but slop. The story needs to be about absolutely nothing.
More specifically, the story has to MEAN nothing. It has to curve REALLY CLOSE to interesting ideas and statements only to swerve away just before they actually make you think about a thing.

Isnt this basically the black flag DLC?

Makes sense, they’re waiting to see how your civil war is going to turn out first.
Ubisoft? The notorious video game publisher that had several high-up members of staff accused of sexual and psychological harassment?
Ubisoft? The company described in a lawsuit filed by employees in 2021 as ‘a legal entity for institutional sexual harassment for setting up, maintaining and reinforcing a system where sexual harassment is tolerated because it is more profitable for the company to keep harassers in place than to protect its employees’?
That Ubisoft? They cancelled a game? Oh no :(

They didn’t want to alienate a good part of their market.
Slave holders or racists?
Yeah those guys
Racists, shareholders, or both?
Fucking trash country full of trash people.
I’d love to fight Cromwell!
So they wanted to make Freedom Cry again. They’re so out of ideas. They’re coping themselves. Got it.
