Episode 18: Ubisoft Kowtows to Lone Offended Nobody Over Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla

from Splash Damage · host Scrivonaut

Ubisoft has updated Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla to remove “offensive, ableist language” referring to a burn victim as “disfigured.” We discuss the future of gaming in a world that caters to the perpetually offended along with weird political takes on new video game console reviews, more games people being canceled over benign opinions on gender identity, race obsession in Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Biden’s plan to waste tax dollars on stopping online harassment, and plenty more.
