Why was that scene all weird CGI Avatar-looking people anyway? Was it supposed to be about early Americans, or was it supposed to be about supernatural beings? I legit don't know.

People that came from Asia to America through the "Bering Passage" rather than the Strait nowadays, but, as par the course, since the writing of the book, there are new American settlement hypotheses going on

Cojawfee posted:Pretty sure that was written by a teenage girl, based on the Mary Sue added in at the end. Well I for one am shocked, shocked that a teenager on the internet has missed the point. Although it is actually pretty interesting to think about the fact that while Technical Kid is a 4chan dudebro, he's also tumblr and like, every youtube personality out there. Which means he really can say "I can't be racist, I have loads of black worshippers!" or whathaveyou. Okay, now I really want to see Fuller do a Technical Kid-centred episode just to see how the show would deal with the-internet-as-a-temple. Obviously not this series since there's like 3 episodes left and too much ground to cover, but sometime during the show's run would be amazing.

New people come to America over the Bering Strait with their mammoth god. After suffering much hardship they eventually are forced to ditch the mammoth god for the indian's buffalo god and the guy who didn't want to change allegiance gets owned. The whole point was how in the universe of American Gods, the gods aren't invincible and depend on followers to stay alive.

It great how the concept of the show matches its content. The gods, old and new, are all about style over substance, and this show is at least 90% style with a tiny bit of substance to make it able to be a tv show. God, i love everything about it.

The gods are not all leeching assholes. Was the shaman/priestess Nunnyunnini's sacrifice to the other god? something like "I give you this very important person in exchange of you protecting and feeding my followers".

More or less. Maybe Nunnyunnini and the Buffalo had a pre-arrangement to sacrifice her. Or maybe Nunnyunnini and the Buffalo didn't talk, but Nunnyunnini just knew that if the shaman cold-called and offered herself as a sacrifice, the Buffalo would take in her followers. Who knows.
