> buy new oregon trail > native american warning before starting a game > half the characters are black > lots of help-me quests solved by restingwhat the fuck is this?
>buy newyour own fault mate
>>719610013i got it 50% off tho
>>719609876>native american playable characterswhat do they do, catch polio and die?
>>719610205No, they have to make the trip while quaffing unhealthy amounts of firewater
if you bought a history book today you know what they'd do to it. why did you think an educational game was going to be different?and that's without even getting into video game remakes in general.
>>719610205Drink firewater and gamble
Wow this looks gay as hell.
>>719610558it’s a little better that it’s more informative of what’s going on. i can see stats and use items to fix the stats. but it just feels like everyone is so happy all the time when my people are literally dying out here. i forced walter to walk 60 days on a broken leg because i wasn’t going to waste one of my medicines are a black man
>>719609876If I saw this shit I would refund immediately
Only the original game was based, even some of the later versions by mecc were pozzed.
>>719609876>the natives were oppresed guyz!meanwhile, reality:>heya hoya whyte man no give us firewater.>skin him alive!
>>719609876I pirated it then uninstalled it right at the intro what the fuck was that disgusting art direction. Even without wokeshit it would be dogshit
This is actually a case where I'm surprised they went with black population revisionism since it would seriously downplay slavery and civil rights, historically speaking.
>>719611206I dont think the original game touched on slavery/racism so they arent really downplaying anything, there is nothing to downplay
>>719610558>Bisexual lighting is a thing because it doesn't actually happen in reality>Somehow they add bisexual lighting to a game set in the wide open expanse of AmericaI hate the antichrist.
>>719611305... Duh, it isn't chronologically introduced yet.Did you think settlers arrived with black slaves?The point is if the settlers had a significant black population, the whole timeline is fucked.
Can I at least type "bang" while hunting?
>>719610558why the fuck is the world outside purple?this taking place after a nuclear holocaust?
>>719610558is this cyberpunk
>>719610558Unityslop. Soulless cash grab on a classic
>>719609876>Different tribes rape, kill, take over each others land >Whites come in and do a better job than them at itWhat's even the argument from these pathetic losers? Only they can take over each others land, whites can't? Bet half of these idiots believe they were all just holding hands and smoking peace pipes all day before the white devil moved in.
You guys should leave your house sometime and see the beauty of a purple sunrise
2>3>1>>>>shit>4 onwards
>>719611705No, the sunrise is a ploy by bisexual satan.
>>719610558brown water shat
at least they warn you the game is pozzed right at the start so you can immediately refund it
>>719609876There's only one thing to do
>>719611305Prior to around 1930 and the first Great Migration almost all blacks lived in the well settled south. The aren't relevant or really existent in the Western United States in the time period of the Oregon Trail. Oregon had like 1,000 black people total in 1900.
>>719611658They were here first and have the same skin color.
I kinda wish Firaxis would make a new Colonization game just to see how they would try to make it adhere to Current Year's progressive morals.
>>719612067They didn't even have slave in the old Colonization iirc.
>>719609876Is there a stop at old Whitman mission where these savages killed 20+ men women and children?This noble savage cunty mythos needs to stop, immediately.>t. Grew up in Walla Walla, WA
So, its woke to show black people migrating on the Oregon Trail, but also woke to point out Oregon legally forbid black people from even being inside its borders (punished by being whipped) from its founding until the end of the Civil War?
>>719612067>>719612214Old Colonization is really sanitized in general. Which I think would be a point of controversy in itself though, especially how it portrays absorbing native tribes as a mutually beneficial civilizing process.
>>719612305God Oregon has fallen so far. They just took all that wisdom and threw it out because it was “mean”
>>719610558Still holding out hope for that sweet USAID monies. May faggot bisexual lighting guide their way across these times.
>>719612618It was made in 2022, I can guarantee you they already got that sweet USAID money.
>>719610558Is she wearing a motorcycle helmet?
Is Oregon Trail public domain? I swear I see another game of it being released every year and each one besides the old ass mac version is shit.
>>719610963examples?
>>719611658The first thing you need to learn about leftists is they can't exist without censorship. There is no argument against your question, the response will be "You're racist!".
I’m making my own Oregon trail except you’re trying to get back to Oregon from Mars after your colony gets fucked
>>719611658>>719614471The argument is that genocide is bad. Not usually a controversial opinion but hey
>>719615081its good if the target group will skin you alive and not a single one will feel remorse for it
>>719613950Technically no. Through a series of acquisitions, Veritas Capital owns the rights to "The Oregon Trail" games, along with other Trails games (eg. Yukon Trail, Amazon Trail) Carmen Sandiego, and a bunch of other edudaitnment titles. The IP was previously owned by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, during the period the game in OP (and the other games you're thinking of) were made by Gameloft.That being said, the concept of people migrating via the Oregon Trail itself is public domain; its a documented historical event, you can make a story or artwork or game about it however you want. Hypothetically, you could get sued for IP infringement if you copied any creative content from The Oregon Trail games, but... is there any? Because they focused on being educational and accurate, there aren't any type of original characters or places (any specific people would be based on historical individuals), getting dysentery or your oxen drowning aren't fictional ailment, all the professions and supplies you could start with were all things real people had, etc. So, as long as you don't literally copy-paste the .jpgs of the game's logo or character portraits, you should be fine.

>>719612214>>719612426It's funny that you can see the back and forth and compromises inside the game. No slavery.Indentured servitude, that wasn't as productive but could eventually become full colonists. Indians that could eventually become full colonists. Sepulveda has a "bonus for converting natives', and he's depicted with a fucking whip, which is historically reasonable. .
>>719610558Oregon was founded as a white ethnostate. You couldn't even have black slaves.
