It's very possible it's inspired by Celtic mythology, if that's true then it's not such a generic setting.

They've already made 3 European settings. Europe and Japan aren't the only regions with interesting history and culture

Fuck sandniggers, chinks, spics, japs, wops, and most of all, fuck NIGGERS. They have shit boring cultures that never even became advanced enough to invent plate armor.

Europe and european culture and history are so much more vastly interesting than any sort of shit created by any number of bug eyed subhuman shitskins. There is a reason all the greatest artistic and scientific achievements have all been achieved by europeans. European culture is the playable character, while everything else is some manner of NPC culture/race that's just a bunch of copypasted background assets. Not even skyrim level NPCs, more like Witcher 3 or hitman copypasted crowds.

Other cultures aren't interesting and if you want to see more of them you can suck my dick.

You know what pisses me off more than yet another medieval European setting?

The fucking overuse of variations of the word "elder". The damn Lovecraft hype makes everyone call everything elder, eldritch etc., even though "eldritch" is literally just an old word for scary/unnerving and has nothing to do with "old, ancient". So everytime you faggots call something an eldritch god or being, you're basically just calling it spoopy and nothing else.

You know what pisses me off more than yet another use of the word elder? The ongoing meme that Lovecraft was even good.

Even when they finally decided to go for a Japanese setting they made the protagonist look italian

>tfw used to play an MMO that literally had a class named Eldritch
It was the shit though, and the class actually had a connection to the original meaning of the world, meaning it took its powers from beyond the Veil.

it's because Europeans are less likely to get triggered over inaccurate representation of their culture or history

Shenmue, every mainline Dynasty Warriors game, Heavenly Sword, Sleeping Dogs. And this doesn't include the plethora of games with token Chink levels similar to

I don't mind medieval/gothic Europe, but Norse shit is the worst. Scandinavians have achieved nothing till date. Fucking wooden huts and shitty boats.

You seethe when you see POC and strong women in European settings

Only Shenmue is AAA

I wouldn't say all video game devs are hacks but it's clear there is a severe level of unoriginality in the industry. You do get games that take place in those regions e.g. Assassin's Creed but usually devs will take elements from those region's cultures and drop them in a different backdrop. JRPG's are notorious for this specifically with the lore of India and China.

I would say the core issue is most can't be bothered doing the necessary research to create games on settings like Mesoamerica or South Asia. So they will just copy settings that have already been done before in media and resell it as a different package. This is also an issue with Europe too as well since rarely do games explore settings of antiquities outside the Romans and Vikings or early middle ages (a lot of games just seem to cover late middle age material).

This is why we have indie devs to pick up the slack I guess.

I know for certain that if I were a game developer I wouldn't use a south American or SEA setting, not because doing research is hard but because I don't give a fuck about them. Most of the world doesn't.

You're confusing Europe for /pol/. An easy mistake, but one is a forum for taiwanese puppetry while the other's a continent.

I personally wish it was Ancient Greece, or Roman, which are THE most patrician settings.

Agreed. By far the most overrated setting

I would appreciate Celtic mythology getting some love.

Shut up

I have not user, I didn't even know it existed. Will read.

Well first I'm not even South American or SEA so it's technically no skin off my back. But in a industry with thousands of developers all of them doing the same settings gets old real fast and makes it difficult for them to stand out.

So if were a dev you may not want to do either of those cultures and that's fine. That's your prerogative, but you also risk not standing out and being pushed aside by devs with bigger pockets who can just out produce you with the same settings.

I don't know maybe it's just me but I can only stand so much of the same settings for so long.

Its about the conversion of pagan Lithuania to christianity. You can screencap this, heres a rundown of the trailer:
involves a ritual in a forest with some guys wearing branches and bloody rags around their bodies, they are approached by 3 men who are wearing what looks like crusader armour(white with a knights helmet), there is narration but I dont remember what it says, something along the lines of "we came here to save the people" the 6 men around hte circle start to drop dead as the narration is happening and the fire dies down, in the center of their circle comes a hand that is like its climbing out of a pit, it cuts to black and someone says "the old world must die...it needs to die" when it cuts back one of the crusader guys is walking down a path with his sword dragging behind him and limping, he seems to be a zombie or tired, he is walking towards a giant leafless tree in the distance. I THINK he had markings like in the OP picture all over his body but I only saw the trailer once and it couldve just been some scratches.

If you love Tolkien then you must love the (((Great People from Under The Mountain))), the Dwarves, and George Martin is one of them.

north african history is great and thousands of years older than europoid one.

I'd kill for a Babylonian Souls

Meds don't look anything like snow niggers.

Sad how underused ancient Mesopotamia is.

If it really is celtic/irish mythology, they better treat us to the proper Dullahan, corpse wagon and spine whip included.

And overused at the same time. Considering how much of civilzation is based on their culture. And goats.

You may not have culture but you sure got a bug up your ass.

Why is every recent Fromsoft related thread so shitty? Can't we just appreciate these games instead of arguing about every single little thing?

If Egypt, which is located in Africa, doesn't have African history then what kind of history does Egypt have?

It's 100% going to be Norse.
Both george and fromsoft have hard ons for norse myths, there are so many references to them in ASOIAF and DS, why would they collab otherwise?

>country located in Africa has African history
Yes, this is a correct statement. Pointing it out again was uncalled for however.

Calm down kangz, it's semite history.

That would be extremely disappointing

Why did you seethe over Egyptians but not Carthaganians, who have heavy phonecian semite roots, language and religion?
Surely user isn't a pop-history faggot who hasn't ever read a book in his life, is he?

Insider said that it isn't Norse

>there are so many references to them in ASOIAF
Retarded take. GRRM draws very loosely from "norse"mythology, which is a very loose term, to draw the ancient lore of the 7 kingdoms, which mirrors real English history (the setting he bases ASOIAF on). Why would that mean he's more likely to tell them to use that for a video game when his main profession is high medieval writing? are you retarded or something

Post examples of Norse references in ASOIAF

pretty sure he means the first men and the invasion by the andals, which basically mirrors the Saxon immigration to England.
Though that's literally about it when it comes to "norse mythology references". I could stand to be wrong if the children of the forest are based off the Norse, though.

As long as they do something interesting with it I'm down. I really don't get why you people harp so much on the window dressing when it's the substance that matters.

>Dude but Aztecs and China and Djinn and all the other mythology!
So? What doe they inherently bring that you can get from European mythology? Novelty? That's all we care about if something is novel or not?

Aztec/Incan/etc shit is the most based setting that is so underutilized
It hurts

Shut up pseud, go back to your /his/ african architecture bait threads.

Also to answer your question, it's because kangz like to we wuz about Egypt more than Carthage. I see it as my god given mission to rename north african empires something else, so africans wouldn't be able to we wuz about it.

I'll take back the benefit of doubt, you really are retarded. And i'll allow you a reminder that no matter how much you try to tell niggers that egyptian history isn't theirs, that history won't be yours, either. You'll never become an "honorary"egyptian.

Children of the Forest are based on Celtic mythology

know whats funny? All it took was Ni-oH, Sekiro and Ghost to make most of Yea Forums say "UGH. IM SO DONE WITH SAMURAI JAPPON." As if they were even the same games. But no, medieaval Europe is always just fine and the default even. Like "duh? Of course? What other setting? Its this or mass effect style sci fi shit."

Can you elaborate? I want to learn further
Also Celts are not Norse.

Literally all of the fantasy elements are Norse inspired.

>No souls game set during the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire
>Hostile fauna - jaguars, snakes, etc
>Great armour design
>Cities full of ritual sacrifice, streets running with blood
>Disease running rampant to make some nightmare fuel districts

Why can't it be made? Bums me out.

Tagged wrong I'm retarded

Assassin's Creed Origins does fantasy Egypt
Guild Wars does Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Persian, Arabic and Sub-Saharan African
Guild Wars 2 does Persian, Arabic and Sub-Saharan African fantasy.

Post the Norse myths they're based on.

You joke, but I'd be legitimately interested to see how they'd pull off the warp spasm shenanigans.

Because all of those cultures SUCK.

You say that vidya devs should make games based off of those cultures simply because they exist, as if simply existing is a feat worthy of attention. It's not, and if those cultures were interesting to anybody except salty autists then people would already be using them for influence, the proof is in the fact that medievil Europe IS a foreign culture to the game devs. It's just an interesting one.

>Because all of those cultures SUCK.
