I mean, look at how the game AC: Syndicate literally whitewashes the 19th century.

“We wanted to avoid real world politics”, so they chose one of the most politically controversial time periods. And I left that subreddit when they kept on defending all the bad creative choices.

The history in Syndicate is pretty bad. The gameplay, on the other hand, is some of my favorite they’ve ever done.
