It’s very simple: every other AC features period appropriate protagonists that match the dominant ethnic demographic of the setting. AC Shadows is set in feudal Japan, a country that was and remains 95% or more ethnically Japanese. So why did the male protagonist have to be basically the only black guy confirmed to exist in the country at the time? And why is he upjumped from a slave and a curiosity to the most powerful samurai in the land?
If I’m playing a game set in a place, time, and culture that makes sense for a black protagonist, then I’ll play as a black protagonist. Feudal Japan is not an appropriate setting for a black protagonist.
Female protagonists are trickier because I’m not interested in playing as an insufferable feminist self-insert. I’m also not interested in romancing men. So the only female avatars that work for me are traditionally feminine, family-oriented, and somewhat asexual/autistic. Even overt sex objects are not particularly appealing to me if they are at all sassy. I just find feminine sass to be intolerably obnoxious.
Sex object female protagonists do, however, function as a reliable marker for the absence of leftist values in any product.

I am a simple man regarding my video games:
Nigger and/or ugly female protagonist = instant pass.
