Developers of the Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag remake faced criticism over the design of some characters.

The developers of Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced are gradually revealing content, and some individuals are carefully scrutinizing everything for censorship.

Recently, a user under the nickname LearningTheLaw (@Mangalawyer) drew players' attention to female characters and wrote on social media:

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced for a modern audience. They added more fat, unfeminine characters (which were never in the original). Anne Bonny's cleavage was censored, and her face was distorted.

Discussion participants criticized the changes, considering them "woke":

The only way to be an obese person in the "golden age of piracy" is to be nobility, and adding such "girls" to the streets makes no sense: pirates and beggars won't invite them to spend the night with them, but rather ask where they get so much food to look like that.

I really don't care, and I have no sympathy for those ***** who blindly buy "slop" [mediocre product] from a franchise and continue to play it despite all these unnecessary and "woke" changes.
Man Of Culture
Could there have been any doubt? After all, it's Ubislop.

CypriotGreek noted the paradoxical nature of the situation:

We live in an era of strange and paradoxical contradictions. Hardcore pornography is freely available online [...] but a slight hint of nudity in an "adult-rated" game suddenly turns out to be "too much." Our society has become strangely puritanical, but in some inverted sense [...] people are offended by a very specific, selective way of presenting [women] that is suddenly declared "problematic" and seems to particularly displease one specific group of people.

Due to one of LearningTheLaw's previous publications, the creators of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 received backlash — he noticed a joint photo of the developers with Anita Sarkeesian. She is known for her video series "Tropes vs. Women in Video Games" and is very unpopular in the gaming community.
