>"Africanfuturist heist game where you plan for high-risk missions. The targets? Real African artifacts, like the Cameroonian Bangwa Queen and the Ghanaian Asante Gold Mask."

Are we excited for this one? Honestly if they play the afro-futurist vibe straight like the old blaxploitation films from back in the day I think it could be unironically kino

This game reminds me of the shit that went down with the German Government and their Museums.
>German Government finds and protects a bunch of African relics and artifacts
>keeps them under insane protection in museums and spends millions of tax payer dollars keeping them safe
>The German government decides to give them back to Africa stating they'd like the African people to be able to see their history
>African government promises to keep their history on display for all to see
>All of the Artifacts are then immediately given to an African Warlord and locked in his personal storage
>They later went missing in a War between different Warring Tribes and thought to be entirely destroyed
>later on some of them appear in the black market being sold by another different group of Africans
Such cultural respect

By all legal metrics it usually is.

Repatriation is so fucking stupid we're gonna lose so much history just because emotional people had to cart priceless relics back into whatever village allegedly had then first. Even when there's an actual museum, you think I trust a museum in the Middle East to not get looted, defaced, and destroyed?

Not really, considering that white people plan to preserve these artifacts and their history for future generations. Some third world village fuckers will quickly "repurpose them", throw them away like junk, sell them to some warlord for a bunch of drugs or worse, destroy them if they're suddenly deemed "heretical".
>>
>>731008292
The point is to erase any and all history, they supply you with a replacement of what they want you to believe happened
>>
>>731008446
What is it then?
>>
>>731007563
you just know that game has exactly 2 programmers and they both happen to be white
>>
>>731008470
Probably. The secret plan is likely to have anything related to tribal african history destroyed, then manufacture "proof" that Africa was literally Wakanda.
>>
If Africa was so prim and proper developed and shiiiiit, wouldn't they get the artifacts back by asking? Nobody's going to do it now because they'll just get destroyed or robbed and sold in the black market.

No, that's a consequence of kikes destroying their markets.

If you go to the official website of their previous game, Semblance, there's a "Supported by: The Innovation Hub - Innovation hub for Gauteng City Region" logo at the bottom.

If you go to the website of this "Innovation hub" (https://www.theinnovationhub.com/) you can see this:

>The Innovation Hub, the innovation agency of the Gauteng Province is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Gauteng Growth and Development Agency. It was established by the Gauteng Provincial Government through its Department of Economic Development to promote economic development and competitiveness of Gauteng through fostering innovation and entrepreneurship.

In other words, there was public funding behind that.
Whether this other game has received the same type of funding I can't say, but it's very clear that there is some political funding and push behind this.
>>
>>731008446
It's not, if you watch the trailer they steal shit from super high tech museum and then drop it in a shitty mud hut.
It's like they're saying in 1000 years when humanity has flying cars and soar through the stars, Africa will still be a shithole that can't live without stealing shit
>>
>>731008627
In the game, they had to come up with this whole bullshit backstory of how the museums are mustache twirling villains who agreed to return the items, but found a personal collection backroom display loohole to hold onto them indefinitely. It's also where they claim the title comes from. The museums have "relooted" these items again by exploiting the loophole and refusing to return the artifacts. The heroes then "reclaim" them(the museums are the relooters, not us!) to shove in a storage unit in a giant collection. Presumably you'll give them to the "rightful" owners at the end of the game(who definitely will NOT sell or put them into private collections of their own!)
>>
>>731006128
>Make a self-described "Africanfuturist" game

I bet 80% of the artifacts are going to be Egyptian, truly BLACK

...yes? Egyptian falls under the Black futurist umbrella

>>731009225
The sequel will be about Arabs stealing Egyptian artifacts back from sub-Saharan Africa.
>>
>>731007049
no because the only people who use it are people who make games like OP's where the message and vibes are 99% of the game and they forgot about the other parts.

this is most indie games these days. dogshit fundamentals held up by vibes just long enough to make a hype trailer that gets people to buy.

It does actually tell us a lot. One of the most useful things for historians is bits of broken pottery. I don't normally recommend anything that the BBC had a hand in but the radio/book History of the World in 100 Objects is a really good explanation of how we figure out our past by binraking primitive rubbish piles.

There's no way you'd get a consolidated force from these villages. There is no alliances between most of them.
