Geez. People are getting up in arms over nothing. Doubly so since this is just concept art. Being upset that they're not historically accurate in their concept art is just insane, latching on to any chance to join internet rage.
It doesn't matter. This isn't a documentary. It doesn't matter if things are from the wrong time period, it doesn't matter if some characters didn't actually exist or had a different role in history. It's grounded in a historical setting, but it's a fiction place in that setting. The ideas of what is and isn't respectful, geez... People are always going to be offended by something, I'm not going to use that as the appropriate scale for what is and isn't okay in fiction. Touch some grass, people. Deviation from historical accuracy isn't the problem, the people going insane over it and any claims from Unisoft about giving a ***** about the accuracy are the problems.
@Fluberuper Yeah. Seems people need a reminder that a poll isn't automatically statistically significant. Anyone who had taken a single statistics course is gonna sigh and shake their heads at this. Ever heard of non-response bias, Push Square?
But the purpose of the headline and article is to generate interest and engagement, not useful information, so there we go. Mission successful.
