AC Shadows positive impressions from creators ahead of embargo

A Chinese streamer that played said Shadows it is far better than Odyssey & Valhalla
Wasn't really interested in Shadows before, but after playing it he went from 1/10 excited to 9/10
He played the first chapter and kept saying story is really good
There’s some funny dialogue option from Yasuke as he doesn’t understand Japanese when he first arrives in Japan.
Another Portuguese creator said Yasuke is “stolen” by Oda Nobunaga from a Jesuit, apparently in an attack on the ship.
Plenty of gameplay from creators coming next Thursday
Another previewer called the hands on time "impressive".
