Devs Please Be Careful Not To Disrespect Real Native Cultures In The New World

"Silence stupid minority/gender/sexuality/religion, you just have internalized [specific bigotry related to bracket one]. I know better than you and will get offended on behalf of all of your group, for I am armed with the knowledge imparted to me by my sociology/women's studies professor and I know words like 'intersectionality' and 'microaggressions' that can be used to dismiss all criticisms of my points!"

I am not Titanmen. You can even tell because my forum name is my real name. If I were titanmen I wouldn’t tell people my actual name.

Actually I consulted with Native American friends before making this post. I also live in an area that has a strong native history, so I feel like I have enough knowledge to speak on the issue.

*Press X to doubt*

I don't see any native people in the game, i see some fantasy pixels made up by a Japanese developer.

The game may learn towards to history and lore of native tribes, but it does not directly reference them, hence they have no grounds to be offended other than being absolute twats.

My friends stepfather is a native american and you know what he said when we asked him of his thoughts? And i quote: "Who fucking cares"

Non issue. And the whining about stereotyping is beyond cringe. What do you want, modern day depictions? You want people with iphones doing tiktoks in their Shein clothes when the WoL gets there???? Knock it off. So sick of saviors who act like they're doing everyone a favor by silencing every minority race. If X race is left out, then its racism, but if you put them in then its still racism because it's showing their culture which is apparently terrible too. but if you put them in and put modern day culture, guess what, then that would STILL be racist, because they'd be 'whitewashed' and stripped of the culture that in that case you would proudly try to shout from the rooftops about. Like wtf do you even want? Oh right, to complain, get attention, and appear holier than thou like some great twitter politician or something. That's fine, you can do that, but please keep that on twitter for your likes and retweets there instead. You dont have to sjw campaign everywhere you go. We get it, you're not racist. You're so not racist, that you actually are racist-which is fine, but take that where elsewhere where it's normal to be that lost in the sauce you have no idea how offensive youre actually being, thanks.

Too late.

"NEW WORLD" outfit was already the first misstep.

These forums have lost all hope. :/

We can't just enjoy living in imaginary worlds anymore, can we?

Also, Hi Titanmen.


I honestly believe that the biggest controversy that'll end up coming out of this, is that South American players will want a Spanish translation. (and i think we should have one, eventually.)

OP please be careful not to mix Real life into a Fantasy Game.

Thank you.
