I was watching the gameplay for Shadows and while it looks pretty promising, I was really put off by the music playing during the Yasuke fight segments. It’s like Japanese music with a hip hop filter, is this super off-putting to anyone else? Just rubbed me the wrong way totally especially considering it’s a game made mostly by western devs.
Edit: to everyone bringing up samurai champloo and Afro samurai, do you not see how stylized anime made by Japanese people are a bit different than a pseudo historical game made by a bunch of Canadians who are already being criticized for a bunch of inaccuracies found in the setting?
I don’t mind the modern elements mixed in the music, Origins did it flawlessly; it’s just the choice of hip hop seems slightly uninspired & tone deaf.
If those hip hop tracks only play Yasuke, that’s a little weird.
It makes sense for Miles Morales, less sense for a samurai.
