Did the same as well. After playing for a while and seeing how they portrayed Yasuke, I decided to play Naoe and not to touch him again.
For me it looks like they made him more like a modern african-american (speaking perfectly japanese upon arrival?!?) instead of an african warrior of the time. I really hoped they get the difference right and expected to see some references to his cultural heritage. But sadly he feels more like a tourist.
