Assassin's Creed[edit]

I've temporarily removed the following sentence from the article to bring it here for discussion: Pembroke, along with James Cook, appeared as an allies and temporary usable ship in the 2014 video game Assassin's Creed Rogue.

The sentence is certainly true - there's fanfic mentions and youtube clips to prove it. But to be included in the article it has to also be notable, and that's where I'm struggling a bit with it. I can't find any reference to Pembroke in game reviews, general Assassin's Creed media coverage or similar. This suggests that the identity of this ship is not particularly significant in the game, and including it in this article might be giving undue weight to a fairly passing pop culture reference.

If anyone has more familiarity with Assassin's Creed than I do, and can find a reliable source for this sentence, please feel free to re-add it to the article proper. -- Euryalus (talk) 06:32, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
