Is gladius any good as a 4x?

Didn't know it's being made by the same guys that did endless legend, there could be some potential in this.

inb4 hundreds of unnecessary or even detrimental changes to the formula because "that's how civ did it and we want to be different"

its just a reskin of their old game which was a rip off of civ

The whole game takes place inside a vaulter supercomputer to determine how best to guide primitive humans into the space age. Calling it right now.

Not like this is their first game of the kind and they are just copying civ.

I would usually say no, cause RoN wasn't a particularly excellent game, but we're clearly lacking a lot of RTS games recently

I would say you're a dumb nigger

They haven't announced all the civs yet. Cool your horses.
This is the kind of comment an incel would make. RoN is in the top 3 RTS games for sure.

But RoN is basic as fuck already

>RoN is in the top 3 RTS games for sure.
It is surely unique, but most of the mechanics in the game are surface level at best. This leads to lack of overall variety outside of civ bonuses

shouldnt be difficult to make something better than the snake oil that firaxis sells. they havent made anything half-decent since civ5.

what civilizations

garbage

The latest civ actually got stale really fast and started pushing the climate change myth, so i actually welcome another dev giving it a try.

>People unironically thought that Sega's new AAA game was going to be a new Viewtiful Joe
Oof
Didn't you guys get the memo?
Sega makes strategy games now.

I miss RTS. Those game were everywhere back then. Makes me really wanna play Starcraft with my buds in a cybercafe that doesn't exist these days. Something about cybercafes that you can't get when you're playing online, in your own homes make me nostalgic. The cheers, yells, cursing and always someone watching your monitor when you're playing. As annoying as it was, those were great times.

>They haven't announced all the civs yet. Cool your horses.

There's been a ton of published concept are, none were featured, and they inherently also don't fit into the heavy Bronze > Iron > Classical > Medivial etc framework the game operates on where each civ is locked to their era; since Precolumbian civilizations, due to not focusing on metallurgical development as much/not being around for as long, didn't at all develop any metals past bronze even if they were more complex in other areas; and since,you know, they ceased to exist hisotircally, unless the devs will have hypotheitcal nations where they survived.

A pretty believable leak also said they'd only be added in DLC and it'd only be the Aztec, Maya, and Inca.

Which civilizations I want, or which civilizations as in you don't know them?

Fuck off with your garbage and slit your wrists

it's a set of two patios in the atetelco complex, which is ; and is numbered 18 in the map key in ; you can see the two patios in the upper right of the photo When it was intact they would have formed a open air courtyard.

Pretty much all the rectangles for buyildings you see in were multiroom complexes like this, hence the reconstruction in ; it's pretty unique in that virtually the entire city's 150,000 populaiton were living in what were basically villas.

As far as it looking greek, that's just how central mexican archtecture looked bro (see pic, I don't know what to tell you. Aztec cities had a pretty simular set of archtectural and art motifs for their stone/fancier buildings, see pic

Not sure what your point is. You asserting they are just one off buildings rather then a whole city? You can see the city map in

Perhaps, but his claims aren't outlandish and it didn't really seem he was doing it for attention.

IDK user, he just seemed genuine to me.

Big buildings doesn't mean civilization.

>South america has litterally the most obviously and clearly defined borders of any fucking continent

That'd be Australia because the whole dungheap IS the continent. You can't walk off it and into another continent unlike all the others.

>don't fit into the heavy Bronze > Iron > Classical > Medivial etc framework the game operates on
They could be just using this as a more easily mentionable timeframe and not a frame of "progress".

It's Civ V 40k, but pure combat. No diplomacy, no peace, just kill everything and research better ways to kill everything. I liked it, but I can see others not liking it.

They've been doing that since CoH

Okay, sure, that's a fair point: Sites like Gobekli tepe or Caral have big monumental archtecture but were basically just ceremonial sites for tribes.

But teotihuacan wasn't just buildings, it's 22 square kilometers of a planned urban grid, 37 (which is twice the area Rome's walls encompassed) including the less dense areas. You have rivers re-coursed through the city in line with it's grid layout, and set to be seen from specic points in the city. The city housed a permanent residential population, there was a sewage system and plumbing, buildings had richly painted frescos in and on them, homes had fine furnishings of glazed cereamnics and sculpture; and the city's military conquered Maya city-states nearly 1000 miles away. You have clear soigns of craft specialization, with specific complexs like Tlajinga being home to Obsidian-workers as evidenced by the large amount of obsidian cores and fragements in the complex's trash area, or the Tetitla complex's (see pic) inhabatants having been shell tradeers as evidenced by similar evdience as well as consistent nautical and shell themes in the cereamnics, sculpture, inscenseburners, and murals in the complex, etc.

Also, by the time Teotihuacan was first founded in 200BC, the region had already had it's first formal state goverments for a few hundred years, writing around 600 years earlier, and earlier proto-urban sites with baseline monumental archtecture, class systems, and long distance trade over 1000 years earlier (or 3000 years before the Aztec, since Teotihuacan itself is 1000 years older then the Aztec).

Basically civilization in the region, even under the strictest definition of the term, had already been established well before this city.

>That'd be Australia
Well shit you got me there.

Perhaps, but I doubt it.

As far as writing goes, here's Olmec writing (or proto writing, if you wanna be technical) from 900 BC. Sort of faint to make out in the image but if you google "Cascajal Block" you';ll see diagrams

There is, in fairness, some debate abnout it's authentcitiy. If you discount it, thent he earliest writing is dates to around 500-300BC, either being the Zapotec, Maya, or Epi-Olmec script (trhey all pop up around the same time).

The Zapotec city of Monte Alban is also likely the first place that had formal statehood, again, around 500-300BC. The paper "Primary State formation in Mesoamerica" (jstor.org/stable/25064850) talks about this in length (though some of what it says to disqualify el mirador raises my eyebrow, i've nevber heard of most of el mirador's mass construction projects being down in the classic rather then the preclassic before I read this paper for example, I still gotta verify that) though there's some who argue that San Lorenzo, the first major Olmec site, might have been a formal state all the way back in 1400BC, though I haven't looked into that yet, but this books.google.com/books?id=DQNK4BkMgWkC&pg=PA12&lpg=PA12&dq=Statehood in mesoamerica&source=bl&ots=p0HsP-llLf&sig=ACfU3U1IEWj1U4caWxr4l_K7kO7qhYsdtA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjp8M2nmpnkAhUkhuAKHVjzBKUQ6AEwD3oECGIQAQ#v=onepage&q=Statehood in mesoamerica&f=false touches on it

Huh, I mised that, you are correct.

Not happy wtih the Aztec sun stone pattern on the Maya temple, though. The clothing is also, like, completely fictional/has no basis in any mesoamerican clothing.

I think they did it just because "mankind" sounds sort of generic, wheras humankind feels more unique.

Something to think about

Plague and poor harvests killed more than the Spaniards did.

Reminder that southern "Europeans" aren't white.

I guess plagues and bad harvests never happened in Europe then!
Oh wait lol

The hell are you babbling about?

Mesoanon is too good for this site.

A lot of Indians died of diseases the Europeans brought with them. Estimate are difficult if not impossible to make but they range from 50 to 90 percent casualties in the Indian population. This also caused civil wars in the Incan empire for example due to succession problems with royals dying. The Europeans had more diseases than Indians because the 3 continents of the old wordl had a far larger base to produce new infections and virusses. Also people on the Eurazian plate had lived with all sorts of domestic animals while in the Americas there were only the turkey, lama, alpaca and the dog.

I've never researched it myself but it is very plausible that bad harvests would be less likely in the Incan empire for example. They had like 4 or 5 main food stapples and in Europe we had grain and in some regions 1 or 2 other closely related kinds of grain. Bad harvests were becoming less common and less destructive in Europe with the introduction of the potato, which wasn't widespread until the late 18th century. On top of this the Incans had farms for different crops in different biomes because of altitude differences. Their way of farming must have been far less susceptible than European farming conditions at the time.

But muh non-eurocentric AKA Marxist indoctrinated worldview muh did you know America had trade routes and flying teepees before Euros came? ughhh duhhh

As I said, the Cascajal Block is controversial. but what's not controversial is Zapotec (famsi.org/research/pohl/pohl_olmec_zapotec_script.html) and Maya writing (sanbartolo.org/science.pdf) going back to at least 300BC, potentially 600BC

No, they didn't get stomped.

The Spanish were almost entirely reliant on the armies of native cities to do the fighting for them, not just against the Aztec, but decades later against the other states in the region, even as diseases and epidemics ravaged native populations, and even with both diseases at play and native armies doing all the work, it still took the Spanish decades to actually subjugate most of Mesoamerica with some places actually never truly being pacified for centuries.

Had these native states decided to tell the Spanish to fuck off rather then helping them (which they did due to quirks of mesoamerican geopolitics, see pastebin.com/h18M28BR), or had they turned on the Spanish after they overthrew the larger empires like the Aztec, Inca, Purepecha, etc; then Spanish would have never been able to directly conquer either region (though you'd still probably see indirect imperalism via monpolizing naval trave/transportation and make the native empires depedent on them)

I talk more about how lucky the Mesoamerican Conquests actually was and how it easily could have failed in detail here desuarchive.org/his/thread/5526254/#5526329 and here boards.fireden.net/v/thread/441551507/#441565260 and why mesoamerican states allied with them due to how native geopolitics worked here: pastebin.com/h18M28BR; see pic for the Inca/Andes

They deserved to be brought down by the based spaniards

There were 3 types of grain that were the basic food staple for every western Europeans for a long time. And not all of them were equally common in every part of Europe. Of those three barley has by far the biggest seeds and was the most profitable. Things like meat, vegetables, dairy products were part of diets too but those products were far more expensive and the first things to be cut when grain prices increased.

The Spanish turning different smaller kingdoms against eachother sounds logical but this would also have been helped by political instability caused by leaders dying of European diseases.

>irrelevant

"relevancy" is relative. They are plenty relative to their own region. They are only irrelevant if you are looking at it from a Eruasian perspective to begin with, which is a mistake, since prior to the 16cth century or so influence and impact was mostly local and regional: There were exceptions, of course, but bottom line befpore the 16th century or so when europeans actually acheivie global influence, there was no "global culture" so there's no singular framework to judge relveancy or impact by.

Also, as I point out in , the Spanish Conquest of Latin America was only possible with the actions of native city-states, so it could be argued that they were highly impactful to world history, even if they weren't the ones who benefitted long term.

>lancient Egypt tier

The Mesoamericans were way more complex then the Ancient Egyptians in a variety of ways. For example, if you were paying attention and had actually followed the thread you'd know The image in the very post you are replying to shows a Mesoamerican city (Teotihuacan) with over 3x the population of the largest Bronze age city from either Egypt or Mesopotamia (150,000 vs Uruk's 40,000) and was almost 10x the largest bronze age city in physical area (37 square kilometers vs Uruk's 4 square kilometers). See also the pic for a different Mesoamerican city, Tenochtitlan vs not just Bronze age but also Iron age cities.

I agree that in a lot of ways they were comnparable to bronze age ciivlizations, but there's just as many where they were beyond them, though some mesoamericans were less complex then others.

>Ancient Egypt was already...thousands of years old.

Almost like humans didn't enter the americas till way later or something....

It was less the Spanish turning them on each other and more them using the Spanish to take out their own political rivals.

Not gonna reply to blatent shitpostin (beyond noting calling them "tribes" when their cities were comparable to the greeks is stupid) but also brings up the "they were already collapsing!!!" thing, so I wanna address that.

I have no clue why I keep seeing people say this or where they here it from (Maybe people are getting confused with the Classical Maya Collapse, which is overstated to begin with), but no, Mesoamerican civilizations weren't already in decline when the Spanish showed up. The past few centuries before the Spanish arrived had seen strides made in metallurgy, political and govermental complexity (a switch away from theocracies and to formal monarchies, oligarchies,and republics) warefare, population growths, and intellectualism (circles of philsophers and poets, formal academia, etc)

I'm not denying that? Yeah, they and the Andeans are the only highly developed high-cultures and civilizational spheres that got totally wiped out. It'sa a shame, we could have had a third tree of human history on top of the West and East. But them getting wiped out doesn't make them not complex or not worth including or that they weren't impactful to world history. .

Europe was a very multicultural place while being all-white. Multiculturalism in Europe, despite this, has come to mean bringing in lots of brown people.

I said western, not secret. Nice reading comprehension, you fucking retard.

call it "mankind: from bronze to uranium" or some shit

Again, they didn't, the past few centuries before the spanish showed up had seen an increase in population, and technological and social complexity.

If you mean the classical maya collapse a full 800 years before the spanish showed up, then that was a combination of political instability from a massive war between the two most powerful Maya kingdoms and all their allies, combined with droughts which led to political instability (both from the wars and from the droughts, since the Maya had theocractic syansties and a sort of mandate of heaven system where promising fresh water and such as a king was part of that) and switching to unsustainable farming methods to deal with the drought and refugees swelling city populations, with it all creating a postive feedback loop

That said plenty of Maya cities survived in the northern Yucatan and thrived. In fact, the largest Maya state ever, the League of Mayapan, existed after the Maya collapse; and this was a speffically "maya" collapse. Other parts of Mesoamerica had some imprtant cities decline right before or aroiund this time too but plenty of others thrived and grew, etc. Teotihuacan's civil prising in 600AD for example isn't some mass social collapse across the region, it's just one city declining awhuile oithers got biggetr, etc

as long as you ar econsistent about it and would call the Athenians a tribe too.

Well, there is only so much cultural things you can get from white people only.
Multiculturalism is actually very hard to achieve as people usually stick to what they have and what they know, especially in more personal things, like morality.

>that they weren't impactful to world history
But they weren't impactful.
Disappearing with no real legacy is the very definition of unimpacftul.

>there is only so much cultural things you can get from white people only.
culture isn't linked with color of skin. you get have vastly different cultures among groups that share the same skincolor.

>Multiculturalism is actually very hard to achieve as people usually stick to what they have and what they know, especially in more personal things, like morality.
Funny, Europe had a tremendous variety of cultures and languages without le magic brown skin.

But even then Europe was heavily influenced by all the cultures arround it and even those further away or cultures that had already disappeared. Europe didn't exist in a vacuum.

A title consisting of one word is far more aesthetic.

No, impactful means how much you altered the course of events and made decisions, choices, or discovered that influenced things, it doesn't nessscarily mean you leave a lasting legacy you are rembvered for.

Again, the Mesoamerican city-states and Andean city-states basically won spain the new world and were huge, critical factors in the spanish conquest, to the point where it's arguably not even a "Spanish conquest". Simply because that ended up backfiring on them and fucked them over in the end doesn't mean their particpation wasn't impactful.

also, again, prior to the 16th century, there was no global world history and you need to look at each civilizational sphere indivually tro judge impact, etc

>A title consisting of one word is far more aesthetic.
you know that civilization is not actually called civilization? it's called sid meyers civilization. but people only refer to it as civ because it is the only civ game (that matters). so the devs of this new game could call it "mankind: subtitle", and people would just refer to it as mankind anyway. and mankind: subtitle sounds much better than humankind.

It's not like the Aztecs would have been able to fight off the Europeans in the long run. They simply didn't have control over all of the Americas which meant Spain and Portugal were free to settle, which meant that they'd eventually be contending with much more powerful European nations on the same continent, rather than overseas.

My point was that there are few things we take from other cultures and there is, I'm going to say not that much different cultures that only have/had only white people in them, and was unified in large countries a long time ago, though admittedly most still have their regional particularities. Add to the fact that europeans have been exchanging for centuries before considering to rest of the world like human beings and you have a somewhat unified european, white culture already. But as I said actual multiculturalism is very hard to achieve which is why most people still have a lot different opinions on pretty much everything.

You really think Europeans have continuously considered the entire world as subhumans for the past 4000 years? Like some kind of proto-nazis? That doesn't strike you as a comically distorted view of reality?

It was in SMAC and Civ II and was quite fun in those. They toned it down to keep it in line with predicted estimates.

True. Because as I said, they have been exchanging between each other for so long we essentially acquired everything we could or at least are willing to get from each other. It's the same for every other big continental culture groups, not limited to white people.
>until you claimed that white people were some kind of historical racists throughout time
Also true, but once again not limited to white people.
Of course, it'd be easier if you weren't a complete retard assuming me saying mean things about white people is the same as me thinking better about everyone else.

What am I assuming wrong if you, yourself, admit that this is what you said, then? And also, it's not about you being "mean", but rather you making dumbass generalizations that should make you cringe when you type them. Were Europeans (again, which, europeans? when?) hostile to some non whites throughout history? Did they have contempt for them, like the Greeks towards what they called "Barbarians"? sure. Were there Europeans that, like Herodotus praised the Persian society, held other cultures in high regard, and had a cordial relationship with them? Yes. The point you have been missing for half an hour is that you can't just shove an entire fucking continent throughout fucking millenia in a single box.

Civ5 was absolute shit

short answer? mobile game
long answer? Civ V was bunk as fuck at launch but gradually became good overtime. Civ VI was likewise bunk on launch but despite improving with the addition of expansions the core problems (districts, world congress, endgame, AI, etc.) were so fundamentally broken that no matter how many actually good new civs and features they added it couldn't fix the problems that were core to the game. The AI are unreasonable, wonky, and warmonger penalties restrict the player from ever taking revenge on an AI that declares war on them. The district system could have been cool but production is so much more important than every other stat coupled with the limited feasible district slots means that you build the same shit every time. The world congress is just a fucking mess and diplomatic victory is the most un-fun thing imaginable since a lot of it is locked behind participating in crises which barely ever happen. Endgame is a slog, by the time you get to the medieval era you pretty much know whether you're going to win or lose and everything afterwards is an afterthought. There are tools for civilizations that are behind to make somewhat of a comeback but the AI never properly use them. so at around turn 100 you already know who's going to win barring some massive upset that never happens. But to finalize a win if you're going for domination victory you just have to slog through attrition on the 200 AI cities that they plop down within 5 tiles of one another. Oh, and districts make it basically mandatory to play wide instead of tall, meaning every turn takes ages while you micro a zillion units and a zillion cities.

That even the Greek had been influenced by all cultures arround them and that their society is made up of different peoples that moved into the penninsula from the north at different times.

It shows promise. Basically Civilization, but with some serious cues taken from Caveman 2 Cosmos mod for Civ4 in terms of how you gradually GROW a civilization starting from baseline culture.

Have an ounce of self respect, child

I'm personally confused as to why there is this big conspiracy theory cohort on Yea Forums that thinks civilization didn't exist in pre Colombian mesoemrica, it's like... why? We've known about these places for centuries, Spanish conquistadors and clergy and many others wrote about them extensively, what's the conspiracy supposed to be about?

Civ 5 with all xpacs is a worthy entry in the Civ series
with vox populi it's honestly one of the best experiences in the series

Americans like conspiracy theories.

I've skimmed through some pages about Mesoamerica stuff on wikipedia after reading your stuff and it's highly interesting. I know wikipedia isn't always accurate or up to data, so I'd like to ask you instead: Have people found out why societies there collapsed so often, sometimes without anything to replace them for hundreds of years?

Then we never disagreed on that particular point, I already told you what I found egregious. Unless you are saying that those migrations came from all around the world, and not from the balkans/mediterranean bassin. That being said, migration or not, ancient Greeks did recognize the idea of a certain "Greekness", or "brotherhood" among Greeks, I can't remember the exact word now. So not really that made up of different people as you say, at least not in identity.

Im American and this is just /pol/ tier reality denial, I just wonder where it's coming from

>Spain
>Important

It is not clear where the immigrants came from but there are historians that suggest they came from roughly the same region as the Krugans. The last one was when the mycenaean civilization dissapeared possibly the sea peoples played a role in this too. After a couple of centuries of which we know next to nothing things settled down and city states like Athens and the collection of villages of Sparta
came to be.

So deny reality to save ones own conscience?

>50 years
>9 out of every 10 people you know die of plague

Looks like they should have researched handwashing a little sooner down their tech tree.

Problem is, they literally forgot how to write for like 800 years the bronze age collapse, so we will probably never know these things for sure.

Wait I meant the second and final collapse of the Minoan cities. The first one was only short and probably because of a tsunami when the island of Akrotiri partially exploded. The Mycenean civiliation used linear A before but the Minoan civilization was more sophisticated and produced far more texts. Linear B was developted after the Mycenean got to Kreta, there are similarities that's why archeologists gave them the same name. This exact thing is promoted to be one of the things that makes the game unique, leaving your mark, having influence on the collective history.

Nig - Ger

wew back awake

If you read the desarchive links I posted whe n this first came up, I address this.

Something to keep in mind is that Spain wasn't even all that interested in widespread colonization of the American Mainland prior to Cortes's success: Spain had just come out of the reconquestia and was strapped for cash, and they didn 't really know what was there or if it was worth colonizing. His expedition's purpose was "exploration and trade", not warfare, and Cortes litterally had a force out for his arrest for Treason during parts of it once the crown caught wind of what he was doing. It was only AFTER Cortes miraclousuly managed to bring Tenochtitlan down and had the tribute influx from most Aztec controlled city-states now going to spain that their greedboner got unleashed and they commitied to pursuing mass colonization, and were even able to do so since they now had allies, a logistical base, had weakened it with smallpox, etc.

You also need to remember that Cortes arrived at JUST the right time: Shipwrecked Spainards who had intergerated into local Maya towns and had learned th language had caught wind of sighting of ships and had ran off to meet Cortes (one of them, anyways, the other was content with his life as a general and husband of the wife of the king's daughter), they narrowly missed each other and only miraculously crosse dpaths again later. The Republic of Tlaxcala was also on it's last death throes, with after decades of being whittled down by blockaded and Flower Wars, the Aztec had finally launched a real, commitied attempt at conquering them they only barely beat off and they had basiscally run out of essneital goods. Had Cortes showed up even a year or months later, they'd have already been conquered and not in a position to do anything. And the Tlaxcallans intially fought and BEAT COrtes's force despite their weakness, only sparing them on a last minute whim to try to use them as shock troops against the Aztec.

1/?

cont:

Most daminingly is that that aformentioned force out to arrive Cortes, who just arrived on the Coastline as Cortes had taken Montezuma II hostage inside Tenochtitlan, happened to have a single person who was unknowingly carried smallpox. This force actually attemepted to ally with Aztec forces to lay a trap and catch Cortes, but the plan failed and Cortes ended up capturing the leader of this force, Pánfilo de Narváez, and was able to convince them to join him rather then arrest him, and when they followed him back into Tenochtitlan is when the smallpox outbreak happened

I could go on (cortes nearly died in la noche triste, the mixteon rebellioj in West Mexico by city-states there nearly succeeded, etc), but I think i've illustrated that Spain wasn't even all that interested intially (seriously, whyu ship conquistadors across the atlantic where you had limited control over them and their ambitions; vs going off and conquering bits of north africa nearby which they already knew about and would be wasy easier?), and it was only Cortes's success that did it (and subsquently, their success from that point on which got the British, French etc jelly and interested on colionizing stuff)., and Cortes's expeidtion itself was pretty reliant on a lot of niche, cascading coidcences

Yes, Perhaps spain simply starts their colional efforts in an less densely populated area and slowly expands from there, but considering that historically it took a shit ton of coincidences aand hard fighting to even get Spain to want to bother, and after that it took having huge amounts of native cities and their armor to fight for them for decades even as the region was being ravagaed by blackl death level epidemics, I doubt it'd work that well.

I do totally agree that indirect imperialism, such as by monopolizing naval trade and access in the area, is guaranteed; but direct conquest? no way dude. Ahgain, see the links in for more info

>this nigger is so butthurt that his "civilization" is nothing more than a bunch of savages raping each other that he decided to derail every single thread remotely linked to the matter.

Seething

again, if you or any other user has real, meaningful suggestions for how I can balance replying to other anons (who are really the ones "derailing" threads since 99% of the time it starts with an on topic reply they just shitpost about) and giving info and not beig obonoxious i'm all ears.

But just going "hurr assmad spamming" doesn't give me real advice or input on how people would rather me post.

Ignore him. Poltards hate when their bullshit gets shut down. Only reason they complain.

I'd like to thank apsie mesoanon and his autistic /his/v/ crusade for eternally BTFOing all illiterate armchair pseudo-historians who don't know dick about native american history

Keep trucking buddy

You're my hero mesoanon. I've become sincerely interested in mesoamerican civilization thanks to your autistic fights with shitposters

I'm happy to hear that (check out the resources in desuarchive.org/his/thread/7102320/#7109468if you haven't akready, also feel free to email me at [email protected] with specific questions you may have, though keep oin mind it might be a while before I reply) but I do wish I could go about it in a way that's less annoying to people, since clearly some anons do find it bothersome.

again, I am seriously open to some suggestions\

I actually really dislike thgis image. It's not as if europeans can't build those structures, obviously europe is filled with thousands of pieces of grand archtecture as well, many, if I am being honest, more impressive from an engineeering perspective then almost any archtecture in the precolumbian americas.

I also don't think the problem is just hur dur racism. Some of it is just racist /pol/tards, yes, but I think the problem is moreso poor education: People are taught about the different stages of and timelines of Mesoamerican and andean history, or much about their socitiy or politics, and instead are only taught and exposed to very narrow slices of it.

It's no wonder why the Temple of kukulkan at chichen itza or teotihuacan seem "mysterious" if you don't understand the technological or social development leading up to them, like people ARE taught for Western civilization.

tl;dr I feel like the image is just making a bad faith assrtiomn

You're alright, Mesoanon.

Concerning your dislike of that image.

No shit buddy, this is Yea Forums you are supposed to be troll softly like that.

iirc he actually got backlash for mansplaining this

Seriously fuck disney for this retarded bullshit.

Hes not wrong, the UK IP laws are totally different than the US.

how so

Except it started on twitter, not Yea Forums.

I'm and I wasn't complaining about you, I like mesoamerican posting because I'm biased towards it since I quite enjoy the time settings and I find it quite interesting, and I'm also not retarded enough to think of history in the "linear progression" mindset nor am I enough of a shit eater to use the term "civilization" to only refer to what I like, the very first class any highschool anthropology student will get is on how the term "civilization" can be quite a load of shit at times. My disdain is mostly targeted at people who have the two types of mindset that I refered to or that use history as a political weapon to shit up threads because they know that's the extent of an impact they can have on any political or social landscape. My reference to Osprei posting should have clued you in on me not minding historical info dumps in vidya threads

>how so

been a while since I read this.
but the jist is that american laws allow you to copyright pretty much anything, Uk Laws also have a comparatively miniscule timeframe for IP to become public domain.
I also think the whole "service vs. product" thing is different in europe in general. Which is why you can't remove a game from someones account over their without refunding them.

I've consistently said in these threads that (for now at least), it's just a hobby since I don't know if it's smart to pursue it professionally given the shit situation the humanities are in and given my own iffy life situation

calling it revisionism is also ridiculous because like 99% of our sources are from the actual conquest period.

They Are Billions is very good at least.
