I still remember the canceled SG-1 FPS they announced AAAAGES ago. I was looking forward to it so much.

Because Egyptian mythology is convoluted as shit and Egypt isn't really a good setting for action in general cause the only time they were half decent or known for warfare was the New Kingdom shenanigans.
I would totally get behind a Tomb Tycoon game or something though. Or a game where you're Horus and the goal is the trick Seth into eating your semen.

Because it's lame as hell. Nobody cares about mummies, deserts, and your stupid furfag gods.

>Or a game where you're Horus and the goal is the trick Seth into eating your semen.
I feel most people would have an issue with the "let yourself be fucked in the ass by Seth before that" part

>A further famous story about same-sex intercourse can be found in the Kahun Papyri, dating back to the Middle Kingdom. It contains the nearly completely preserved story of the Osiris myth and the legendary fight for the throne of Egypt between Horus and Seth. The chapter in question reports that Seth was unutterably jealous about his young nephew Horus, because Horus was very young and popular. He was quite pampered by the other gods. Seth instead had very few companions and he was comparatively unpopular because of his choleric and vindictive behaviour. As a result, Seth tried to either chase away or even kill Horus, no matter what the cost. When Seth constantly fails, he plans to humiliate his rival so badly that Horus would be banned from Egypt forever. Seth invites Horus to a party and convinces the teenage Horus to drink more than Horus could normally cope with. When Horus is drunk, Seth seduces him to sleep over the night in one bed together. When lying together in one bed, Seth grabs Horus and rapes him. But Horus has tricked Seth; his drunkenness was staged. He catches Seth's semen with his hands and hides it. The next morning, Horus runs to his Mother, Isis, to tell her what happened. Isis is at first speechless with rage and disbelief, then she tells Horus to masturbate and use his semen to lubricate Seth's favorite food (Egyptian lettuce). Oblivious, Seth eats the manipulated lettuce, then he goes to the divine court to inform on Horus. At first, the divine judges swear at Horus, but when Thoth, the scribe of the court, calls for Seth's semen to emerge from the body of Horus, instead the semen of Horus emerges from the body of Seth. Seth blushes in embarrassment and shock, then flees. Horus is acquitted.

Ancient Egypt is literally one of the most common pre-modern historical settings alongside medivial europe, fuedal japan, greco-roman, and Scandvian shit though

It's still underused relative to modern day shit, but there's a ton of equally if not more interesting settings that are way more underused:

Islamic world:
>Bronze age Mesopotamian city-states such as Sumer, Iron Age neo-Assyrian and babyloian empires; to Persian Empire in the classical period and various Medieval Islamic Caliphates
>West African states such as the Mali, Songhai, Benin, etc

South Asia:
>The Indus River Valley civilization, the Vedic period which gave birth to the Sanskirt epic poems, to India's contact with the Western world in the classic period and the Maurya Empire, various other empires and then under Medivial Islamic rule such as by the Mughals
>Southeast asian kingdoms and empires such as the Khmer and Suhkothai

East Asia:
>China's Shang Dyasty, Unification under the Ming, the 3 kingdoms, subsequent reunification and splits etc
>Ancient and Medieval Korea

Mesoamerica:
>early Olmec proto-cities and the spread of civilization in the preclassic, the prominence of Teotihuacan during the classic during the alongside the Golden age of the Maya and the Zapotec, the rise of the Mixtec and Toltec succeeding the Zapotec and Teotihuacan in the early postclassic, to the rise of the Aztec empire in the Toltec's stead and their rivals the Purepecha empire in the late Postclassic

Andes:
>Early Chavin, Paracas proto-cities etc in the Early horizon,Moche city-states, the Nazca, etc during the early intermediate, the Tiwanku and Wari Empires during the Middle Horizon, the Sican culture & Chimu kingdom in the late intermediate, and the utter domination by the Inca empire during the late Horizon

And those are just the places with actual civilization, if you want tribal proto-civilizations there's a fuck ton more (Mississippian proto-cities, Germanic Tribes, Mongols, etc)

I don't buy that, the only times Mesoamerican stuff shows up in media is a hyperbolized and hyper-violent depiction of their culture anyways.

Imagine being a devout Egyptian worshiper during the height of the Egyptian pharoahs. You dedicate your entire life to your gods, doing everything to ensure that you will succeed in the afterlife. And then, 1500 years later, the only reason anybody remembers the gods you worshiped is because they are in weird porn online.

It's actually way overused, thanks to every elite in the world cumming over them and eating mummies for the past 500 years. The problem is that the mythology is pretty tame unless you wanna make weird laws of nature focused around cum and deserts are also inherently boring as settings go.

Interesting, shame it's gacha shit but still interesting none the less. The musical aspect seems weird but at least they did enough reseach to make him a storm god like real Caananite mythology.

lack of information
Maya only really have the Popul Vuh and thats the only major source of information about their myths aside from mine scattered texts (half the gods are named things like God A or God F mainly because of the lack of records and no proper translation from existing mayan texts).

Aztec have more, but their stuff is disjointed and some gods are only mentioned for brief moments in stories then never heard from again, also they have 7 gods just for corn depending upon what type and what stage it is in in the Aztec cycle of use.

>also they have 7 gods just for corn depending upon what type and what stage it is in in the Aztec cycle of use
Japanese mythology is the same. You'll have your classic gods like Amaterasu and Susano-o and and then there's also some god for brushing your teeth on the third Thursday of every month, it's ridiculous.

Yeah, it's a shame he's stuck in gacha (hopefully will get some screentime in the gbf rpg ?)
And I'm with you in wanting more non-demon depictions because he seems to be criminally underrated and being doing a huge disservice with his appearances being demon 99% of the time

that being said one of their gods Xipe Totec while being the god of skinned corn is fucking brutal cause he would make you sacrifice people by flaying them like you would skin corn

dfds

pretty much every religion had that due to cultural overlap gods would gain or lose domain over certain aspects of human society based on the culture of the time, problem was with the Aztecs some gods were apparently only god of one thing since they lacked records and the fuck over with the spanish destroying everything of their culture.

I call bullshit on this.

The popul vuh is more then enough to base a game around alone, it even has fucking video game esque levels ans bosses set up for you, and then there's a few other postclassical docuyments/records on top of that and then classic period icongraphy. And if you mix in NON mythological stuff, such as actual history, then there's plenty of Maya city-states with detailed surviving inscrptions telling us about the marriages, births, deaths of rulers, alliances, wars, key events of other sorts etc between cities

And there's a metric shit ton of stuff for the Aztec. There's literal hundreds of Spanish and Aztec language documents and manusctripts for the colonial period re-recording information that was lost when the Spanish burned pre-contact texts and honestly giving us more info on stuff like general society, culture, adminstration, etc then we probably would have had if the spanish hadn't showed up. Sahagun and Duran's histories combined are like 3000 pages of detailed information on Aztec history down to specific quoates and interactions between political officials, and a ton of information on day to day life, medicine, rituals, class systems, goverment, judicial, and relgious bureaucracy, laws, random cultural quirks, etc

Other civilization such as the Mixtec, Zapotec, Purepecha, Totonacs etc fare way less well, but a number of them still have a few colonial era documents, the mixtec have like 8 surviving pre-contact books documenting some of the same sort of info maya inscriptions had, etc

The problem is just that english translations are either recent and not public domain or haven't been translated yet; schools don't teach it, and since schools don't teach it most people don't realize the info is out there.

You don't even fucking need to read spanish though to learn shit, though to make games or informational stuff, you just gotta make an effort to look, as people who know their shit for advice, etc.

I think it's because it can not be anything other but absolutely egyptian, and that feels kind of like a copy? Or too much of an obvious copy?

Like you can blend greece with rome and even renaissance and neoclassical europe for a togas and marble setting without it being strictly greece.
You can blend medieval england, france and germany together for generic medieval europe.
Arabia, persia, turkey, medieval spain for
arabian nights.
You can blend aztecs, mayans and incas to get a jungle civilization, china, japan, tibet and mongolia for eastern whatever, and vikings, celts, huns, native americans, africans, orcs for whatever flavor of barbarian you want, but pyramids, anubis and nemes will always feel 100% egyptian. Not even vaguely inspired by ancient egypt, but as if a chunk of the nile was transported to an alternate reality.

Or that's why I think migh be the reason. But it shows up much more in historical settings as the real life ancient egypt than in fantasy settings as the totally-not-egypt counterpart, that's for sure. It's as if everyone were more comfortable doing real life egypt than a fantasy version of it. It's kind of like the opposite of arabia and china in a way. Those two tend to appear more as the exotic magic desert to the south and dragon empire to the east than abbasid arabia or tang china for example.

And the Inca lived in a mountain range, not jungles. The Aztec weren't in jungles either, they were in temperate to semi-arid valleys and lakes. Pic related shows the sort of envoirment the core Aztec cities existed in

Greece, Rome, and Egypt had tons of overlap, to the point that many mythical monsters and gods were shared between all three.

Greece and Rome blend very well with Egypt though. Don't forget that Cleopatra was Greek.

make a game out of that.

rekt

I'm aware of who the incas were and where they lived. I've been there.
But who they were and how different they were to the aztecs and mayans is not my point. I guess I was not clear enough.

Those three are often mixed to create a vague pre-columbian inspired setting almost always a jungle, just like it's done with east asia, islamic countries or medieval european kingdoms. In contrast you can't create a vague egyptian-inspired setting, just real life egypt. It's so unique and iconic that at some point it becomes obstrusive to worldbuilding. So in the end it'll be mostly used once or twice for history games like age of empires or assassin's creed, before they move to the next time period.

Yes I know that too. But in most media they are always kept separated, probably to preserve their individual aesthetics.

Eastern Slavic people didn't even have written language before Christianity.

No, Egyptian society, much like Greek and Roman society at this point, didn't follow homosexuality. If you fucked a man in the arse, the man you fucked became a woman in the eyes of society. It wasn't gay, you just fucked a woman.

This is missing some key facts. The story is a lot more complicated than that. I'll try to explain it.

Firstly, Set kills Osiris, the King of the Pantheon. He chops him up and throws his penis into the Nile, where Horus is born from the Nile. In another version, Isis (his wife) reforms Osiris body and has sex with it and becomes pregnant with Horus. Set claims he should be King of Egypt in the Pantheon as he is the strongest. Horus says he should be. They argue. Horus does what you describe but he does it because if Horus is fucked in the arse by Set he is considered to be a woman and thus not able to rule Egypt or the Pantheon as he is a woman. The story continues as you said. Set says that Horus cheated and challenges him to build a ship out of sandstone and race it down the Nile. Horus instead makes his ship out of wood and paints to be sandstone colour. He wins the race and rules Upper Egypt (good part) whilst Set rules Lower Egypt (bad part).

The moral of the story is this: fuck and cheat your way to the top if your family lineage isn't good enough.
