Someone in Minecraft recreated ancient Mexico
Why don't we have more games set in Mexico?

You just described the mexican cuisine.

Realistically this is like 90% of global cuisine. Just whatever the fuck people were able to scrap together from their limited resources and drowned in sauce/spices to cover up the otherwise bland/bad flavor. People and countries trying to pass off centuries of subsistence-based cooking as some sort of culture or heritage worth sharing with the world or being proud of need to shut the fuck up.
an aztec/maya civ total war game would be really cool.
besides that maybe assassins creed type rpg's in the setting, jaguar warriors and stuff could make cool protags
Please enlighten us on what you consider "cuisine."
>people shit talk Mexican food
Yet you fat Amerimutts consume it like the filthy hypocrites you are.
>same fat Amerimutts eat Indian shit blindlessly when they stir it with their bare hands that they use to wipe their asses with
A lot of great dislike of the Mexican people. Many assume it's just infested with Drug Lords ready to decapitate a white man, and that it is a lawless shit hole, when aside from the Government being literally what the U.S. wants to achieve, it offers a lot in terms of culture and history. Unfortunately the very people of Mexico wish they were Spanish with how they claim to be Spanish when even the filthy Spanish wish they were Portuguese instead (all their national heroes are literal Portuguese).
I've been rambling about this for the last few months. We could have a Jaguar Warrior Assassin with his Obsidian Knife jumping out trees and stabbing Conquistador Templars in the back of the neck (similar to how Jaguars always aim for the back of the neck of their prey to instakill). Parkour would be amazing in the dry highlands and lush jungles of Mesoamerica, in addition to wandering the many capitals great architecture of their long gone founders.
Hell, it already is guaranteed to have a bad end anyways, but imagine the sadness people would feel when MC dies trying to take down Cortez on La Noche Triste and failing to do so to only get ill later from disease or have them watch their brethren die of disease.
because it's not exotic enough like east asia but not familiar enough as europe or america.
>be a stoner watching this
bro would fuckin eat no cap

You a fucking retard, kid? Mexican food is probably the only food relevant worldwide outside of Italian and Chinese. Unlike Italian, Mexican food varies enough to qualify for dozens of different dishes, instead of variations of pasta.
Anything that actually has some thought and consideration put into the ingredients with an effort to find complementary flavors, doing more with less, and generally being selective for the sake of creating something unique and interesting. The world is not a more culturally enriched place just because your ancestors figured out 80 different ways to pair the same staple poverty ingredients with a tortilla.
>This one folds the tortilla THIS way, but this other one folds the tortilla this OTHER way
>This one has TWO tortillas
Holy shit I understand that you have to work with what you've got but fuck off
they can definetly shoehorn those ancient aliens they love so much in there
American Tex-Mex is superior.
Imagine only being able to traverse by foot.
And the mesoamerican civilizations were just quirky. Some technological marvels, paired with crazy human sacrifice and not inventing the wheel.
>many assume its infested with drug lords
It is, but also many people just assume that its just non stop mariachi and colorful "Coco" fiestas.
Red Dead Redemption portrayed Mexico extremely well compared to most games. Even tho RDR is a romanticist rendition of the Old west, it doesnt have the generic FIESTA vibe that everyone infatuated with mexican culture seems to have. Not to say that it isnt an aspect of our culture, but the colorful fiesta theme is hugely overused to the point where im tired of playing games with it.
>not exotic or familiar
idk, alot of fantasy games have aztec or mesoamerica themes at the least. Even WoW and Elder Scrolls have Arognians and Zandalari. Not alot of games have those themes at the forefront, but i'd say alot of creators take liberty in adding Aztec/mesoamerican flavor into their series, even like Dungeons and Dragons.
Have you ever been to Mexico or any to eat except the generic mexican taco places?
top kek
I just wish more games would allow us to take place in post-independance pre-revolution era. Not to many games focus on that. Most times there are only three eras shown for Mexico.
>Classical Meso-America, almost always having to involve the Spaniards
>Revolution Era, early 1900s Old West
>Modern Era, heavily focusing on drug cartels
It's like a Mexican Subway. A bunch of bland shit thrown together.
>RDR
Never touched it, I'm not a consolefag, as for your fiesta theme, that's literal white assumption of it, especially Burger White. Coco also had it fiesta theme around Day of the Dead, which makes sense considering the standard Marigolds, and colorful decor, so that argument of "it's exclusively Mariachi and colorful "Coco" fiestas" doesn't hold merit here since the film took place on Day of the Dead.
But I guess thats literally all cuisine.

But it's not to say that there arent certain dishes in each culture that dont take time, skill, and specificity to make. Mexicans have alot of food varieties and not just what you get from taco bell.
Calmation el culation wey. Dont need to get so defensive. I'm not talking bad about Coco, I like that movie. I know what the movie is about. All I'm saying is that that seems to be the major theme most people take of Mexico. I was using it as an example of what the generic fiesta theme that is used ELSEWHERE Of course it's a white assumption, but white narrative kinda writes the script for other people to see Mexican culture as. I highly suggest playing RDR, supposedly there's a working PC version somewhere out there that was being worked on but i think it runs at less than 10 FPS for the time being until some modder is able to unravels the horseshit coding of the game and make it playable on PC.
RDR2 is devoid of Mexico, no access to the Mexican side of the border like in the first game, and lacks any and all Mexicans unlike the first game. But a PS3 and RDR are realtively cheap I highly suggest playing it at least once. The mexican side of the border is stunningly lovely and unperfect, which is why i like it.
>all their national heroes are literal Portuguese
wtf are you talking about bro
stop replying to your own thread you mentally ill meztizo
Need more games focused on Meso American Mythology, not just aztec but Olmec, Chichimeca, Purepecha, Maya, Toltec, Otomi, Huichol and all the other tribes as well
You afe not wrong but generally mexicans learned early on to keep only the tasty mixes alive, this abhomination on is just disgusting
What use is a wheel to traverse jungles and uneven terrain?
Based olmec descendant
>You a fucking retard, kid? Mexican food is probably the only food relevant worldwide outside of Italian and Chinese. Unlike Italian, Mexican food varies enough to qualify for dozens of different dishes, instead of variations of pasta.
My sides are in orbit
Maybe I'll give it a try some time.
The biggest problem is that it doesn't attract people as much as Greek/Roman, Norse or Egyptian pantheons. Despite there being some METAL AS FUCK shit in those mythologies.
We got vampires, giant space caimans with mouths on every joint, omniscient cat wizard with an obsidian prosthetic who made it rain fucking Jaguars, a giant flying snake, a flayed fuck representing corn, and the list goes on. Mesoamerican lore is also pretty based considering the duality of each God.
Because China and the US are the top video games consumer . Both groups are known for bitching about games . I mean the US itself threatened Japan because one of their anime games had tits here and there .
Think about it , do you really think those cousin fucking , burger eating , rifle sucking retards would buy a game set in Mexico ? Same with those rice munching dickheads
