Dias posted:It's kinda hard to culturally appropriate a culture that basically "ate up" others thru imperialism and globalization imho. Exactly. Nobody knows for certain how warped and convoluted American culture actually is. I certainly don't. Every 'truth' thats repeated to us tells us what is and what isn't. It's a game of telephone where the first person's values and intent have been either eroded away over time or hilariously misinterpreted.

Minorkos posted:That sounds a little vague. Isn't language culture? I'm not a native speaker but I've put some time into learning an American accent. Sometimes when I'm hanging out with my friends, I like to use the accent to imitate Americans. Is that cultural appropriation? i've unironically seen people argue just learning another culture's language is considered appropriation

Grouchio posted:TBF any accurate spreading of norse mythology awareness is always welcomed in my book. ive been having a lot of trouble reconciling authentic norse imagery in the game with modern norse imagery as used by numerous neo nazi groups, because the imagery is the same. thats the bad kind of cultural appropriation

I think it's going to be funny when the best friends start to like Kratos because he is mean/abrasive towards a little kid.

Wild guess, but if Kratos has to kill his own son at the end because the kid is turning too God Of War 1!Kratos-y, the pop from the guys would break their mics.

Baldur's Gate has nothing to do with Norse mythology, like, at all.

If you have even cursory knowledge of Norse mythology you'd be able to make that educated guess. It is not like they are hiding his main gimmick.

Goddamn would I so much rather play Baldur or any of the Norse in this new game, everyone looks rad as hell and Kratos is once again the lamest design among a bunch of cool guys. All the other Greeks looked cooler and now all the Norse look cooler. Yardbomb fucked around with this message at 08:48 on Apr 23, 2018 |

Tupperwarez posted:"Look brother, mistletoe!" It was a sign that Ragnarok would happen. Not so much because of any cause and effect, but because everyone loved Baldur, god of hotties. If the most favored god of them all could die, then being a god didn't mean living forever, and in time all the rest of the gods would die too.

I wonder how much spoiler talk they'll do in the podcast and how fast they'll finish the game because man, GoW ended up GOOD and that's crazy. I know their upload schedule means its gonna take like months for the LP to get done but i cant wait to hear their final take on the game.
