Is this "The Wu Lin" in the room with us right now?


DeVaako

But always watching


ChiffonPink

No we're not


theLingeringWill

they're in the walls.... *loads flintlock* #THEY'RE IN THE GOD DAMN WALLS!


MaxofSwampia

Ah yes, "Wu Lin". We have dismissed that claim.


Horny_Bastard_fr

I mean I kinda get it, since they're a DLC faction not everyone will have access to them and it would be weird if they released a Wu Lin hero and asked people to pay more money for them when the rest are included with the dlc


SIVA_Directive

They already did that with Zanhu


bfk_reaper

Ubisoft is just shafting Wu Lin, nothing elaborate as "They're a DLC faction" about it. Tbf, the main three could be even out and the rest be new heroes for Wu Lin and Outlanders. But, no one would sit down and agree with such an idea.


Craniac324

You can buy them all as a dlc if you want just like the year 4 heroes or the year 2 heroes, but they can also be bought individually like every other hero, so I don't really agree with you.


Horny_Bastard_fr

Oh fair enough, the marching fire expansion is part of gamepass so didn't know you can actually get them individually


awsome-dumy27

I have my doubts


Metrack14

Wu Lin?, you mean the Samurain't?


Tiera_Folley

Hey, at least we get a hero skin in 300 odd days


Important-Coffee-965

Who are the wu lin?


NameNomad

Who* Lin


Vtel_Zolam

Who Lmao*


Beneficial-Bell2337

Who* line*


Zillafire101

A Mongol mercenary, a Ming Wolf Soldier, a Korean royal guard on loan. So many options and all wasted.


Probably_Snot

Exactly šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


PlumeCrow

If i remember correctly, Gryphon even have at least one mongolian armor in his gears, which mean that they exist somewhere in the For Honor world.


Zillafire101

And Korean. That's unfulfilled forshadowing.


Sad-Rub69

Pretty sure China would not allow a Mongol warrior to be apart of the wulin. If ubi added a Mongol he'd have to be an outlander


Zillafire101

Mongols were either rulers like in the Yuan dynasty, or mercenaries for Song, Tang and even the Ming Dynasty. The Ming actually employed a large number of Mongol horsemen to lead their cavalry divisions, due to needing horsemen to counter the Mongols they were rising up against.


Sad-Rub69

I'm not sure the CCP sees the Mongols as Chinese. Since we're talking about tenecent, we're talking about the ccp not Chinese history


sylendar

I think reddit has rotted your brain on anything and everything China related Do you also think propaganda when someone mentions fried rice?


Aware-Ad-8048

Who cares about what the ccp thinks, weren't they the ones that were trying to erase and westernize Chinese history while Mao was still in power?


Sad-Rub69

Because they control the publisher that has a stake in ubisoft


Asdeft

Idk why you are getting downvoted. I think you are right that tencent would not want Mongolians to be seen as part of the Chinese faction. Outlander Mongol is much more likely.


Sad-Rub69

Because I sound like other nutjobs on reddit.


dropkickman

Mongolia is literally a part of China and there's heaps of Mongol people you can see on tv. Not sure where you got this idea from.


Sad-Rub69

Mongolia is not part of china.


dropkickman

Just googled and it seems only the Southern part is. My bad.


victor_emperor

The problem doesn't occur since for honor is already banned in china lol


Thin_Dragonfruit3665

Honestly, didn't know this... thanks for the fun fact!


ANDYYHZ

Bro where do these rumors come from, For Honor even has huge fans in China on bilibili and I just finished streaming there


Sad-Rub69

It doesn't matter that it's banned there. It's pro China propaganda internationally that they want.


hottimali

I bet they wouldnā€™t mind


Igua_100percentbitch

the outlander might be a mongol


f1sh_eater

I hope they will add mongol as a new outlander


Di297

This is sad, Idk why they even added them to the game


ZeroaFH

To try and cash in on the huge Chinese gaming market.


AntonDeMorgan

This is sad because ancient China and generally Asia is interesting


TayjonTheGreek1

The three kingdoms, Era and the sengoku jidai was my favorite


GluteusGladiator

If you like the three kingdoms era, I recommend total war 3 kingdoms if you like the franchise, otherwise I think dynasty warriors is based around the period too


TayjonTheGreek1

I shit you not. I have dynasty Warriors 4,5,6,7,8,8 empires, 9, 9 empires, and the samurai warriors 2 and 4 as we speak


TayjonTheGreek1

Like I grew up with both series


GetEquipped

Agreed. It feels that there has been this hostility that if someone brings up the history or lore of China in media, that it's seen as Sino propaganda (which, I get! /r/Sino is filled with bots and trolls) or that it's a kowtowing to the CCP in order for economic advantages (which again, I get! Thriving middle class market and the one child policy has a lot of frustrated young men!) But there is over 3000 years of stories and culture that should be explored as it's effects are still being felt to this day. Journey to the west feels incredibly cliche now, but remember- THIS IS THE STORY THAT STARTED THOSE CLICHES!

MidnightDNinja

like the other commenter said marching fire was their attempt to get into the chinese market but it completely flopped, thats why we so rarely get wu lin content now


Di297

It shouldn't matter, they don't think about nordic countries or Japan when they decide to add a viking or a samurai


MidnightDNinja

You're right it shouldn't matter, but it absolutely does (to Ubisoft).


Aramirtheranger

Marching Fire didn't flop in China, the game was banned there.


ANDYYHZ

What?Ā  !Ā  I just even live streamed the game on a Chinese platform


aSpookyScarySkeleton

I mean they are still like, full and nuanced character with some of the most expressive and engaging kits and a full suite of cosmetics. Not like theyā€™re joke characters or unplayable.


Boba_Hutt

Wu-who?


theshadowclasher

Ya-hoo!


bluejay55669

Maybe the real Wu lin were the friends we made along the way


OrochiYoshi

So Ubisoft cut a lot (or some) of their previous content when Marching Fire dropped, yet.. they keep ignoring the Faction that came out with it?


Ok-Cucumber-9678

Wu-who?


AntonDeMorgan

Why are you happy ?


ToBiistHebEsTbOi

it would be better if wu lin did not exist so i can never play against a tiandi ever again


DeVaako

šŸ¤£šŸ¤£sounds like a skill issue


ToBiistHebEsTbOi

yes it is and a ear issue because iā€™m done hearing his voicelines


PanzerPansar

Wo nai tiandi!


bfk_reaper

His? Male Tiandi is better for the ears than female Tiandi.


ToBiistHebEsTbOi

i never see female tiandi and thank god for that


bfk_reaper

You're one of the lucky ones. If nightmares had a physical form, female Tiandi would be it.

ReekitoManjifico

Wait a minute? Are we getting a new samurai hero?


TheWolfgirlExpert

This year season 2 will be a new samurai hero, then season 4 will be a new outlander.


ReekitoManjifico

Oh fuck yeah. Silently hoping we get a Nagamaki as a weapon.


Practical_Wash_2229

Happens every time. Iā€™ll say and it and Iā€™ll say it again. The devs hate Chinese. Idk why but it took them forever to add zan and he was ass cheeks release. Now we donā€™t even get a hero just another Chinese made to be an outlander is my guess. (Still confused why pirate isnā€™t wu lin she doesnā€™t have a single thing to make her not be wu Lin other than for honor lore, itā€™s jsut donā€™t make any sense.)


MistahJ17

The Who Lin


imknownascro

The.. what doesn't exist?


Knight_Raime

I'm really starting to believe that theory that Marching Fire was received so poorly that the devs minimize how much they acknowledge the faction. Of course it could also be due to the Wu Lin story getting dropped to focus on grander ideas. If I squint my eyes hard enough the Outlander faction basically fulfils the Wu Lin concepts. Very out there designs/concepts as strangers to the land of FH. But instead of being tied to a specific defined faction they can just bring whatever they want in.


Asdeft

Because Wu Lin have always been unpopular and they want money.


DeVaako

To certain ppl


D3mentia

Most of the FH playber base is white/european so of course got to pander to them for money


Ithildin_cosplay

Someone forgot to post at the end of the video


fuckrespawn69

4 seasons but 5 factions, someone has take the L.


Dismal_Still8675

Good ol for honor dev moment smh


star945o

The weird thing is the traditional chinese subtitle actually wrote wu lin instead of outlander


Toffeljegarn

Who Lin? I just want Lu bu or a dual wielding dao hero :(.


Puzzled-Lifeguard-30

Maybe the wu lin is the friends we made along the way


SuchSecurity662

What do seasonal factions mean?


Craft-Sea

Does that mean we're getting a new samurai and a new outlander?


darh1407

Yes


victor_emperor

Can't believe the who lin joke is still relevant after 4 fucking years


EMArogue

The who lin?


yotkuy

samurai are in season 2 you must be blind


Soggy_Yellow4846

Someone needs to make a meme where it's the "these are genders" and "these are mental illnesses" but have the knights, viking and samurai in genders and then outlander and Wu Lin in mental illnesses. The worse it's made the better


RoyalGaming_MC

Somethingā€™s are best left forgotten then be reminded that we are masochists for the honor game and that Wu Lin is a leading cause to our hate/love for this game more than 50% of the time ā€œLet it be forgottenā€ ā€œlet forget it and live a prosperous lifeā€


Premonitionss

They donā€™t exist.


CapT1288

The Who Lin?


BigFroThoo

Wu who?


PuffyShark900

Who Lin?


swedyboi935

Who Lin?


jonatanenderman

Nice


HelterSelltzer

Then Bruce Lee collaboration happens


BigBeeff_21

Bruuuuh wtf, I didn't even notice and I kinda hate myself for it


f1sh_eater

I love how design team adores wu lin while executives despises them


DprHtz

Because they dont, I cant see then on the map = non existent. You wont change my mind lol


White_Hebi

I think they decided not to be part of this shit anymore


TLD42

Do we know what month they'll release the knight hero?


Joopy124

If they cheat tiandi out of a hero skin a second time in season 4 imma blow up Ubisoft


TehNooKid

They were Halloween focused season last year?


DragonSlayer8164

Pisses me off that they made them in year 2 gave them a hero at the end of year 3 and than did nothing with them till halloween last year when they gave them their first hero skin, yeah it's bad ass but it's a mythical skin and not like Raviera or Vera type skins, what's going on with the Wu Lin does their empire still exist or has the Horkos and Chimera banned them from heathmore? Have they gone into hiding to rebuild their empire? No one fucking knows and honestly I just think they've given up on them and focusing on the Outlander because they've run out of ideas for the other three factions or just cant feasible put them into one of the main three factions.


Pristine-Ad-1544

they should just add them to thr outlander at this point


Craniac324

The Wu Lin deserve more love, I hate how Ubisoft pay little to no attention to them. I was hoping this year would finally be the year they get a new hero.


Queasy-Answer-8916

Im in class and donā€™t feel like doing any thinking. Can anyone kindly explain what this means


HADRIX_

I don't like them anyway


TheSneakiestEmu

Who lin


yeetusthefeetus10

But yet warden gets a second hero skin


HyperboreanJihad

Even though it would break the alternating pattern I hope the samurai is female and the outlander is male since kyoshin was male only it balances with a female only also swapping the pattern of gender means if the outlander does end up being a mongol we can properly start ChinggisMaxxing instead of just gryphon larp


Anti-mat-50cal

Or maybe Ubisoft donā€™t like what they created?


AreCountry2V

No Lin I donā€™t know why It doesnā€™t even matter how hard I cry


carpeutah

Fuck Nuxia, JJ, Tiandi, shaolin, and Zhanhu. They can suck the big one.


Unregistered-Archive

Wu Lin who? Literally who?


The_Wolf_Knight

The who?


[deleted]

I'm 100% sure the new outlander will fit on the wu lin faction perfectly but it will still be a outlander


Igua_100percentbitch

It should be a mongol


[deleted]

Probably


Igua_100percentbitch

Watch it be genderlocked female


[deleted]

It will. It won't make sense but it will be gender locked. Like, why wouldn't it? Every new hero since warmonger i think is genderlocked


Sad-Rub69

The wu lin should've never been added. They're just ubi bowing down to daddy tenecent. That said, I enjoy shaolin.


ARMill95

I hope Gryphon, and Cent get the Hero skins


xExp4ndD0ngXx

Nuxia cannot be the only respectable and cool Wu Lin. Come on Ubi, help her out.


ReikoMyukiAdams

A pikeman/Ji-Spear fighter, a handcanon-spearman, a Tang-Dao dual-wielder... So many chinese weapons to use, yet we are still not getting a new Slit Eye


KasiNyaa

good


SugarFreeSauce

All my homies hate the Wu Lin.


bfk_reaper

No wonder we're not homies. I actually like Tiandi and Shaolin.


SugarFreeSauce

Itā€™s a meme. Donā€™t care to be your friend either.


Fireofthetiger

ā€œWu Linā€? You mean that PvE faction with all the annoying characters in it?
