As a member of an indingeous tribe that I will not disclose how come I or others never see equality and representation for ourselves in games?
>>
because there's barely anyone to pander to. every other demographic /v/ seethes about (which let's face it is every demographic that isn't themselves) has a much bigger population of potential customers.

Americans (native and otherwise) attack people over it so games who want to sell in the US (most of them) avoid or remove all references to natives in their games.

I know OP is baiting but fuck it, I'll chomp, and I don't wanna hear no whining or entire paragraphs explaining to me who's fault it is, I know, I don't care, this is an earnest question- does anyone here from a small culture or one that's not usually shown in media actually feel offended over sterotypical or silly depictions? Does anyone actually get upset, or is it more fun just to see [country mentioned]?
I'm not gonna mention where I'm from, but despite being a big country it's actually represented very little in media, and I still get a hoot out of the stereotypical versions of our locals just because it's fun to see
>>
>>719546074
it depends, doubt gypsies enjoy being depicted as pickpockets all the time or niggers enjoy watching a depiction of them yucking it up with their slave owners back in the day.
it's not a matter of "is it stereotypical" it's a matter of "is it insulting?"
>>
>>719546618
then they're thinskinned, i'm russian and i grew up with literally all depictions of ruskis i saw in cartoons being big dumb drunks and i found it funny
you're only insecure about media if you don't see reality, if you can't look around and see that what you see on television isn't actually the case, you'll be upset
if you see a little pickanniny dancing around a campfire with a bone in his nose, and then turn around and observe your local black community having a nice barbecue as everyone is polite and wearing real pants, you'd go "heh, silly cartoon", but if you're so unsure of your community that you have no good frame of reference, you'd be upset

I know they released a sort of puzzle game for MCOG sometime ago, but it was forgettable.

They could make something work I think for a fun platformer. I'd settle for a scrolling beat em up, because cartoon I.P.'s having these isn't uncommon (see He-Man).

Grandfather emigrated from Hugnary during the uprising in the 50s to get away from the killings and now he and my grandmother has passed, the fact that my dad speaks Hungarian (Sometimes, mostly just when another hungarian speaks to him it all comes back to him outta nowhere) is the last link my family has to its roots in that respect.

I never see Magyar culture represented in any vidya outside of historical grand strategy/civ games. I dont think most people in the world know much about Hungary to begin with. Only thing I can remember off the top of my head is I think the NPC colonists in Halo Reach spoke Hungarian, and thats about it.

First, not big enough of the consumer market share to matter. Second, everyone loved making shit with native indian tribal shit until sjw types back then systematically and institutionally did their best to cleanse that tribal shit from the western mind. So now the only ones you get are the more sterile corporate representation in games, because culturally making parodies of native americans has been looked down on for over a decade to the point it's been effectively culturally erased and cleansed. So now, while you don't get the offensive representation, you now get no representation. The only Indian thing I get now in my games is from Rimworld.

The last attempt I saw at it was Far Cry 3 with the native tribe that Vaas and Citra hailed from. Shit took me out of the game because the idle dialogue that you will occasionally hear is exactly what my uncles sounded like. Right down to the laughs and anecdotes. It's weird hearing their accents when you're so used to the diamond dozen burger, bong and euro chatter that you come to expect when playing vidya.

I liked the way the Hungarians sounded in Tannenburg. Just a shame they had to get the chop when Isonzo finally rolled around. If you can have gypsies, magyars, ruski, latvians, bulgarians and germs all in the same game then the one after that shouldn't be a roadblock. That's what you call true diversity right there when everyone is fucking screaming at each other in a hail of gunfire.

These aren't Indigenous Americans (Canada/US), they are just Native Americans. That degrades them from SJW talking points to brown subhumans no one in California gives a single fuck about.
But on the flipside, it also means that they dodge the absolute insanity of American identity politics so they get to be in games.
That's why there's an entire hidden Maya village you can visit in nuLara Croft, with Mayan characters serving as both the allies in your quest as well as the villains and shit. Absolutely unthinkable in the US, "Might as well make a Nigga Whipping Simulator or assassinate Trump in Hitman while you're at it" tier of unacceptable portrayal if these were treated and seen the same as those from the US and Canada.

for these games the story doesn't have to be extensive and deep, just a "celebration" dumb fun with familiar backdrops. Think of Captain Commando and those era of games, no real story, just stages bosses and final boss with a short ending.

As for playable characters, Lisa was playable in the Simpsons game, so the 3 kids could still fight.

it was a tribe of only about 2000 people left. someone from the tribe made a reddit post about how it drove them tears, because for their whole life they saw their culture dying and fading away, and then to see something specifically from their culture put into overwatch, the biggest game of the year, was amazing to them. they showed their whole family, they were so happy about it.

I think it helps to handle some things with the respect they deserve when things are visible on a global scale. Positive exposure invites interest. Why else do weebs exist? Sure, Germans and twice removed Dutch may have done horrible shit to my countrymen but I don't despise their existing. Stereotypes aren't bad but they're poor taste and boring at this point. One thing that surprised me was the inclusion and depiction of three non-Egyptian, African deities and spirits in SMTVV. And then Miary Zo's design is kinda disappointing even if there isn't anything wrong with being Polynesian.
>>
>>719545589
Sometimes no representation can be better than insulting representation.
I would be seething about the depiction of Chel if I was an indigenous central american for example.
She literally exists as a piece of brown meat to be colonized by two white men on screen and as an exotic early fap icon for young non-indigenous boys who saw the film.

I'm from a country that doesn't really get mentioned that often so I'm not exactly sure what the stereotype might be (except for the one we made ourselves, but that's not really the same thing). I would probably get a good laugh if I saw one.
One thing I can say for certain is that most of the time the people who get "offended" by a stereotype are the typical rainbow-haired teenagers who think they fight racism by screeching on twitter. The people who are actually being depicted mostly find it funny.

Also drugs, remember every kid born after 2010 is on drugs before he's even born because his mother is hopped up on SSRI's and xanax, then he goes to school and says he would rather play outside or draw or something instead of doing math so he gets given meth, and by the time he's old enough to say no to it he's already addicted and his brain is fried and nothing but his drugs and social media addiction will soothe him

Most vidya is made by nips and they have their own brown indigenous tribe (Ainu, Okinawan) they can appropriate when they want to show primitives
For american tribes most find cigar store indian tropes cringe and after that there aren't a lot of unique visuals or ideas you can turn into film. even someone like turok leans into mysticism stereotypes and tiger lilly in OP is typical sexulization of the brown
tl;dr indians are boring or not unique enough

Incas are pretty good to study. They were really organized as an empire in a way that could be compared to the roman one. The Mapuches are also really interesting, they were far more advanced that people thought and were the only ones to resist the Spanish and make a treaty with them

Native Americans are very sensitive to sperging out about how they are represented in fiction and can be really nitpicky about it even when the representation is positive, so usually the safest bet is to not represent them at all.

Okinawans were the same kind of Sinitic kingdom as the Japanese. The trope is more about "Japanese, but living on a heavenly tropical island".
Hence why they're always brown, outdoors-y, good at swimming or surfing, etc.
They're not really used as indigenous tribal people.

The word "indigenous" is usually only used about people who do not have their own recognized state or other wide venue of self-determination. The Sami are currently the only indigenous group in Europe because they do not have independence, and have no strong political body that could represent their interests in mainstream politics of Nordics or Russia where they live.

>Native Americans are very sensitive to sperging out about how they are represented in fiction and can be really nitpicky about it even when the representation is positive, so usually the safest bet is to not represent them at all.
I live in Northern Ontario, and the only native dudes I know that are aware of or play videogames always play as the native dude in older games. I don't think a single native american person ever complained about characters like T.Hawk or Thunder

This.
How many black nerds do you think imagined the dwarf queen as being black?
How many female fans of Ghost Busters were like "Yeah, we need a movie exactly like that but with a female-only group of rabid feminists?"

It's obviously not a topic that pops up with normal people. Those just go "Yeah, of course it's silly. Just like military isn't like Rambo." and if you're friends, they invite you over.
Purplehaired nepo babies from a 6 figure doctor's family working cushy office jobs obvioulsy never got invited over. Nor would they go, for fear of catching the poor diseases of the blacks, natives and who knows what else they fight online article crusades "for".

Marvel tested the waters in the years right before COVID. They were able to include a lot of progressive dog whistles and get away with it because the rest of the movie was good.

Sorry.
I understand why to some more oppressed countries and ethniticies it can be stressful and annoying if people who fucked them over in past makes stereotypical stuff of them. Especially if it's demeaning or degrading.
Some are more tolerant of course than others.
As a Finn it's fun to see anything Finland mentioned. But if a Finnish(or especially Swedish) game studio made a stereotypical Sami character in vidya, I wouldn't be surprised if they would call it out.
Japanese seem to be happy and don't think too much about that kind of stuff as they seem to be just more interested in representing other cultures and countries, even if they accidentally make them bit controversially. Just that nippons don't really think about it too much it seems, but I doubt many there are ill-meaning. RE5 is best example, white guy going around shooting Africans while "saving" them. I have finished it so I know it's not about that but man playing it in "current year" made me laugh a bit.
>"Who could do this to these innocent people!?"
>Shoots a black tribesman with a shotgun(don't worry it was a zombie)

most depictions of my culture are either negative or some bullshit from centuries ago.
Then you gotta deal with white retards celebrating such portrayals, even though it would be similar to circle jerking over puritan pilgrims or some shit. Things that the modern people have no real connection to.
I just ignore most attempts from either side of the political spectrum.

People nowadays don't know who the Puritans were, they heard the term and immediately without any self awarness assumed "Hmm... 'Pure', huh?... Must be something bad" and assumed it means people who uphold some kinda good wholesome values and thus any backwards regressive people who don't believe in modern ideals
It's why you'll have people refer to others online as "puritans", the new word has no correlation to the Puritan Protestant movement
>>
>>719564056
Most Disneyfags only care about new shit, the reinasance era or marketable Princess stuff
>>
>>719564056
Some stories are just most popular than others, some disney movies like Black Cauldron also lack the sauce that other movies had, when it comes to female popularity it's largely due to how they're characterized and how much screentime they have, Alice for instance has a deadly combinatino of being a character from a very popular book, having a really cute design and being on screen at all times, meanwhile Shanti has four minutes of screentimes at best but good god does she make those count holy shit.
Some of them are simply too old as well, like Princess Aurora or Cinderella, they can't compete about the more "recent" girls like Belle or Ariel because the boomers who probably fapped to them are dead by now and there isn't any generation turn over to keep those girls popular.
Last but not least, you have furries and furries are VERY vocal and proactive when it comes to these things, so characters like Lady Marian enjoy a very specific boost that normal human girls don't really have.

Eilonwy has basically all the right ingredients to be highly regarded (cute design, great personality, pedigree, sex voice, flirtatious) but it's dragged down by Taran being uninteresting. I can't really explain it, but he straddles a line between Wart/Arthur and Shinji Ikari that just makes him unlikeable enough for Elionwy to be wasted on him.

Not a German but I think it has a lot to do with their culture. Most of European countries are very patriotic, but that's a big no-no in current American culturosphere. Doubly so for Germans for obvious reasons: hence the outlet is nationalistic depictions of other countries. As a lifehack: if you ever meet Germans that you have to get along with, say that you like Kraftwerk or some other German band. They'll talk your ear off right away and if you can manage that you have instantly made a friend for life. Like most Europeans, Germans are very proud people and giving them recognition makes them happy beyond words

>>719564938
Its feminine identity politics. Its all about attention. If you arent seen, you dont exist. Who the fuck cares if, say, a fantasy game has pseudo-Iroquois, pseudo-Aztecs, pseudo-Romans or pseudo-Chinese, as long as the game is fun and interesting. Gamers dont care, they just want good games. These id-pol people dont care about that, they want their ingroup to be brought to forefront because to be seen is to exist. Ignore such foolish feminine actions and keep on enjoying what (you) like.
