One of my favorite underrated movies (which some might argue is terrible) is The 13th Warrior, where Antonio Banderas (Spanish) plays a Moor who falls in with a group of Vikings, several of whom are played by Irish and Germans.

In that vein, one of my favorite computer games of all time is Conquests of Camelot, where you play as Arthur and travel through various parts of Britain, then Gaza, then Jerusalem.

I feel like if it is done right, cross cultural stuff set in dark age or Christian/Medieval Europe can work just fine. Of course, if the character starts talking about racism and what not, then we have a problem.
The movie is ok even tho Banderas magically learning to speak Norse (?) was retarded. IIRC in the book one of the vikings speaks latin and he basically serves as a translator for Ibn Fadlan.

So, I assume The Wall got banned for threatening CK? Kinda lame. You usually get a warning for that and then get banned if you keep repeating the death threat. I joked about killing Maxie once and I was just warned not to do it again.

Think Infin just took the chance CK gave him and also because he knows it would make him absolutely furious. Shame really. Nothing The Wall says is wrong really, even if he has a special way of going about saying it. Nothing he said was worse than what CK said either.

Zzz this site sometimes

I do not know of any Malian explorers from the 14th century, but I don't deny their existence either.
There's this fascinating account: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_voyage_of_the_predecessor_of_Mansa_Musa but obviously that trip went in the other direction.

But does such ridiculous exception really merit representation in the game?
No they're just looking for any excuse. Most of the apologists are likely paid shills to boot.

So historylet here. Is it completely unreasonable for a how should I put it - supreme gentleman of color - to find his way from Mali into the middle of Europe in the 1400s?
If it isn't, is it unreasonable for said gentleman to be a doctor? And in the Holy Roman Emperor's camp?
First we should ponder if it's reasonable for the writers to come up with the idea in the first place. If this was the first game it happened in ever, one might think the writers just wanted to highlight a forgotten part of history. But since gentlemen of color are everywhere in historical settings nowadays the former is clearly not the case, and we must instead search for ulterior motives.

I feel like I wandered into the politics forum by mistake. Can we talk about the game now?
Seems more like the game devs wandered into politics by mistake. That makes politics part of the game, and we should talk about it.


why would a muslim choose to brag about how his civilization respects women more than the Bohemians do
He's not entirely wrong, female West African slave traders sometimes became quite wealthy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signare (female entrepreneurship at its finest). :smug:

But they chose a Malian. There is no historical reason, nor any narrative reason, for choosing a Malian in particular.
The only reason to choose a Malian is because Mali was the biggest west African empire at the time. And African Americans are descended from west African stock - can't take an Ethiopian, because they are of east African stock and have a completely different physiognomy.

They chose a Malian because they wanted to represent African Americans.
Yes, surely the writers can't have heard of Mali but not about Ethiopia?

It helps if you're not extremely autistic about it and start @'ing people if they don't reply immediately, or for giving you a rating while you spam ratings left and right.

This is why you should urge people to off themselves instead

My hands are clean if they do it on their own

Someone managed to figure out how the African would have gotten to Bohemia. Through the Mediterranean and avoiding pirates and privateers.
Well easily, but they were not allowed to immigrate, human traffickers were executed even for smuggling Pole into the country. And femeles didn't want children with black. (And they definitelly didn't want risk sex with them. It was era of no condoms and no anticonception pills.)

Also no peasant used that B. word. It was Czech kingdom. (Or countries under Czech crown if you wanted to use diplomatic term.)

This only has weight to it if you say it to a tranny on twitter. On the Codex it's like saying "hello" to someone.
"Ah, what a nice morning! Oh, a fellow Codexer! Hello there good sir!"

"Kill yourself you fucking faggot."

"And a merry go kill yourself to you, too! Ah, isn't it wonderful to have good friends?"

A czech dude leaked this in the steam forums btw:

You can have gay sex as Henry

there is a gay sex scene but it's optional, and treated as the crime it is at that time in history. Knowing how KCD1 works you'll probably also have the option to report the gay person to the local authorities.

The black dude is real

there is a single black guy in the game that the main villain seeked out and hired to be a surgeon for his army, he does not give lectures on women's rights he holds the belief that Islam is good for women, it is not pushed whether this is actually true or not, and you can have him executed for a crime he didn't commit.

I'll admit this is 3rd hand info, but there's another user who's Czech and claims to know what is behind NDA through someone they know having early access and is sharing what the Devs refuse to. However knowing what I know about Varva and Warhorse from before this all blew up, it is the most plausible information out of any that have been posted so far, that's for the Black guy.
The Gay scene being optional and the fact that is has consequences in line with what a gay man would face historically has basically been confirmed by Varva himself basically.

Honestly thats it for me

What common language would a foreign nigger even use to converse with a recent peasant lad from a Czech village? So he knows his nigger language of clicks and rape noises, then probably Arabic, then Greek? Henry knows Greek?

Apart from those if he is a doctor he probably knows a bit of latin. Then possibly turkish or persian as these were important languages in the muslim world at the time. Maybe Henry knows Latin?

Henry doesnt know shit. Latin was the language of the clergy. Peasants and even some nobility were illiterate.

Threatening to kill Codexers never even occurs to me. I want these lowlifes to live and fully experience the pain, indignity and shame of being themselves.

This one's to Vavra: may you live ten thousand years with yourself, nigger-loving faggot.
Yeah but he's gonna live for ten thousand years with that Blackrock, DEI money.

Including a Sub-Saharan Negro doctor in medieval Bohemia and faggotry in the game will not help Vavra with the left. Especially when he used(grifted?) being not politically correct so hard when promoting the first KCD.

The worst part is The Wall said a couple days ago something like "I should take a break from rpgcodex for a bit" - foreshadowed his own demise :negative:
