What historical events would make good vidya game settings?

World War 2
World War 1
Vietnam

inb4 Rhodesian Bush War

The death of Woodrow Wilson would be interesting if they put in conspiracies in it, maybe the explosion of the Krakatoa as well

Dustbowl horror game

>battle of salamis
sound tasty

Already done, retards.

whatever happened in this shitty region.

battle of salamis was some cheeky shit

The fall of Constantinople.
You would go around doing missions desperately trying to save the city looking for anything that could break the siege as the days pass, the bombards getting more and more intense just as the final day comes and you fight tooth and nail, taking dozens before you die.

Artemsia waifu.

The raaape of nankking would be kino.

Any of the significant battles where Christians defeated the Ottomans.

The siege of Vienna would be pretty fuckin awesome. Or the great siege of Malta.

I can smell the roach anger.

There is no game where I get to play as Sulla wiping out tyrant filth

Why can't my CK2 playthroughs ever be like this?

>taking dozens before you die

lol absolute cope

Pre-colonisation aboriginal Australia. All memes aside, it would be very interesting if done the right way. Considering there were over 500 different tribes, it could be a faction-based game, or the game could be fantastical instead of historical, and use the dream time as a setting. Having the rainbow serpent, three sisters and other legends as bosses would be dope.

1989 Tiananmen Square

Some others, not yet said, that would be very interesting.

> Fiume and The Republic of Carnaro during D'Annunzio's years
(Basically this poet led a band of patriot deserters to a contested city after WW2, which hailed them as liberators, and governed it for less than two years (royally fucking up, he was a poet not a politician) between piracy, smuggling, a siege and a blockade, drugs, marches, poetry, prostitutions, and continuous visits of journalists and VIPs.)
> Norway during WW2
> The mexican civil war
> The Rwandan war in the 1990s
> Paris during the impressionist era
> Marco Polo's journey

Of all those cited, I'd love one on the anabasis, one on the siege of Malta, Vienna or Byzanthium, and one on the Roman Civil War.

What the hell happened here?

Based, I wonder why know one has thought of this?

>hosing down liberal Protestants with your AK

Conquest of Istanbul wouldn't fly, wh*teoids only like to create media of them winning.

All WW2 strategy/FPS games did

>Teams are being scrambled

>losing 60000 men to a bunch of cannibals trapped in a fort

That's EU4's period. Also, Paradox are hacks.

The tunguska event

This desu

I guess they recently made a movie of this. The Greek revolutionary girl in it hooks up with the dashing turk soldier... :^)

If you guys want pro-greek media you definitely aren't going to get it from the USA or Europe. You'll have to do it yourself.

The one where I eat a city's entire population save for a few, and the one in which you're a delinquent Jew during the Roman siege of Jerusalem and you get to see a woman offering her half eaten kid for others to eat after she just finished chowing down on it.

It's extremely poorly recorded in the written record and half the archaeologists in that region are unapologetic nationalists so their digs get filtered through their lens. The short answer is I dunno lol.

A bit overrated all things considered. It certainly didn't deal the decisive blow that Herodotos paints. As George Cawkwell put it in his "failures of Persia", it was a battle that the Persians didn't need to fight.

EMU WAR

>casualties
>dignity

Iran-Iraq war, Falklands, Soviets in Afghanistan, Yom Kippur war, Six Day war.

The Iran-Iraq War. It's probably the only war I can think of that fits the premise of a modern day conventional war between two states that so many Shooters and RTS games use.

>still no true ancient Greece games

At least you have Odyssey, mesoamericans have nothing

And a lot of the material that does get dug up, such as coins that could tell us how the borders of the kingdom shifted over time, gets smuggled out of the country and sold to private collectors rather than recorded by academics. Remember, this is Afghanistan, the most shithole country of shithole countries. Kabul's national museum has been looted multiple times. They're never gonna make it.

Odyssey?

>youtube.com/watch?v=SU1Ej9Yqt68
i want a movie , a game , a freaking manga, anything about this epic masterpiece, Caesar opera Magnus

Literally anything besides WWII and present day. Video game idea guys are fucking braindead.

Ass Creed

The Sea People
Sargon of Akkad
The Rise of Uruk
Fall of the Assyrians
Egypt the Old/ First Dynasty

A game about throwing byzantine napalm on Turks or Sassanids trying to assault the Theodosian wall and you get more points when immolating multiple people at once.

Caesar in Gaul DLC for Rome 2 Total War, lacklustre as it is.

Georgian subjugation of the Cumans. Really obscure stuff. People will suddenly be aware of how cool Georgian history is and maybe someone will finally translate the chronicles.

Without meming now:

More things from eastern europe.
Not only was Poland for example place of many battles that could have changed europe it also represents one problem:
The underrepresentation of slavic heros or tales.

Everytime i watch television slavs are portrayed as:
>Russian
>Drunks
>Whores
>Gangsters

Imagine a strategic game like ROme:Totwal War with only eastern european counrties + their enemies.
Or an RPG set in the time where Poland fought the Ottoman empire

The battle of Alesia? Never happened. Where even is Alesia? Don't know that.
Gergovia on the other hand... oh boy, that was something.

Venezians captured Ferrara and refused to return it when the pope asked. The pope casted excommunicate on them and all sorts of kingdoms and duchies came to loot Venezia. It was by far the richest country in Europe at this point.

Alliances broke down due to slow progress and mercenaries often staged the fights against each other to save lives.

Siege of Suiyang would be fucking awesome

Siege of Babylon
Age of Discovery
Islam expansionism during middle ages
Russian conquest of Siberia
Entire Alexander the Great campaign
Viking saga
Aztec rise and fall
Hundred years war

The 7 Years War and the whole Protestant Reformation

Europe was a hellscape during these times with roving bands of mercenaries and armies raping and pillaging as they saw fit until based Swedes came in and fucked up their shit
