What video games take place in your country or feature characters from your country, and are the portrayals accurate?
>>58908597
Max Payne 3. Very accurate in everything.
>>58908597
Did Spanish players think RE4 was in Mexico btw?
>>58909553
I actually thought it was in Transylvania or some shit when I was 14
Half-Life 2 has one (1) Swedish sign
still counts
>>58910273
But thy speak Spanish?
None but some polish ones. It's nothing particulary exceptional here, if you need some slavic shit, you pick Russians or Ukrainians as they are 'more".
>>58910774
Slav games are so comfy
>>58910408
Its in Eastern Europe tho.
2 whole chapters in Sly 2 took place in Canada.
Was actually pretty awesome.

>>58908597
it's been a while since i played stalker 1 and metro 2033 the last time, but as i remember it was pretty accurate, even there weren't real cities or places. that's only because games were made in ukraine
>>58910802
Yet they aren't about here. Mafia's about USA, Wicher about Neverland. Only STALKER is about here (I mean Ukraine).
>>58910834
Abba was universal, twat
>>58908597
Literally none
>>58909329
Probably my favorite game of all times. I always wondered, what do you huebros think of it?
Also, OP, Mexico i only know of three games where Mexico appears:
Army of Two Devil's Cartel
Red Dead Redemption
Call of Juarez
>>58910888
But The Witcher is heavily based in Slavic mythology though.
And you can't deny that Redania is meant to be Poland. Same colours, symbol, etc..
>>58910914
At least you had Hostel movie, we haven't had shit.
One day....
I will make a game about Liechtenstein
this fucking game.
had at least one cutscene set in H*lsinki
>>58911001
Tax Evasion Simulator?
>>58911001
great. we can collect money on kickstarter
>>58910975
To be honest I didn't ever look at it this way. But true that's they smuggled some polackiness into it. As I said, none but polish games.
>>58908597
Crusader Kings II
Can't remember if there's any games set in Texas or characters which depicted Texans.
>>58911001
What do you think about german immigrants?
Just asking.
>take a flat world
>put in some grass
Voila, you have the Nethercunts. There are also some WW2 games about Operation Market Garden I guess.

>>58911107
nüx, gibts bei uns ned.
Wenn ein deutscher hier immigrieren will, dann muss er mindestens 10 Jahre hier wohnen oder mit einem Liechtensteiner verheiratet sein.
>>58911225
Part of the game takes place in mexico
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
The original Command & Conquer had a mission in Trieste, Slovenia.
>>58910931
Honestly real and unreal at the same time.
Like they made São Paulo look like Rio. I's completely different cities.
>>58911225
It was set in fictitious places, New Austin doesn't really count. Although the Wild West setting had similarities with the actual history, it was still more like a GTA setting.
Average day in the Netherlands.

Assassin's Creed Syndicate is the recent one which springs to mind. Other than sports and racing games, not many are actually set in the UK, but there are many British videogame characters about.
>>58908597
Rome total war.
AC2.
Pretty accurate, we were imperators and parkour ninjas
>>58910988
not entire series but still
>>58910931
I remember there was a rainbow six game I played in Mexico. Also there is a few stages in fighting games where you fight in Mexico.
The only game I can think of that takes place in Alabama is one of those shitty hunting or fishing games.
>>58911270
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is placed in Pripyat, which is in Ukraine. Or has Russia occupied that too?
The only one I can think of is cry of fear. Regarding portrayals a lot of games which include vikings
>>58911447
Ding Chavez
>>58910988
Yeah, that was nice. Produced by Tarantino
The last Deus Ex was set in Prague

I'm pretty sure that whenever people see Cowboy's hat and shitload of sand they think Texas. Or when they see Oil well and sand. If you know just 5 states at all, one of them is Texas for sure. I have no sources on that, but I'm pretty sure about it.

Denke halt drüber nach so wie es sich hier gerade entwickelt.
Eure Immigrationsgesetze sind echt klasse.
In einem europäischen Staat zu leben und Bürger zu sein ist ein Privileg, Leute scheinen das nicht zu verstehen.
>>58911662
No doubt. I get what you're saying, we're pretty stereotypical, hence why I wasn't sure if if there were any games set in my home, but because of how famous Texas is around the World, I kinda expected there to be at least a few.
I'll have to look into it.
>>58911693

I'm not that much of a gamer but "No country for old man" and "There will be blood" ftw enough to be satisfied about 'we in popular art' category. Also that strange ball for a plant that rolls whenever ain't any cowboy on the screen has to be mentioned.

>>58912050
Ohh... Well now if you wanna get into film, there's a shitload of them set in Texas. No Country for Old Men is downright, hands down, 100% accurate depiction of West Texas (which is much different from the other parts of Texas) in the late 70's/early 80's (it's set in 1980).

It's Nijmegen.
This is an accurate portrayal of the relationship between England and France.
>>58912596
>>58912603
True
>>58912168
What about "Good, bad and ugly"? If it's about Texas (part at least), the state goes straight to the top of my fav state list. (Sorry Dallas, tho, Polack's heart can't help it, but to love Chicago the most out of the cities. Plus Blues Brothers, nuff said)
>>58912811
It's set in New Mexico. You seem to have a fascination for the Wild West, which spans many states, not just Texas.
It's regarded as one of the greatest Westerns of all time, which I think is interesting, especially since it was shot in Italy as one of the many "Spaghetti Westerns" made during that era.
>>58908597
>are the portrayals accurate?
certainly not that one
>>58911001
>>58912984
>especially since it was shot in Italy as one of the many "Spaghetti Westerns" made during that era
but the spaghetti westerns were actually shot in Spain
mainly in Almeria
>>58912984
Not at all, it's just that many westerns are great movies as just movies ("The Magnificent Seven", "Blazing Saddles" and 100 others"
>>58912200
Jau, das ist eben dann wie bei einer Bewerbung. der Typ schreibt, warum er unbedingt möchte aufgenommen werden und was er doch so toll geleistet hat. Ahnelt so in etwa wie einer Bewerbungsmappe.
Vielleicht hab ich die vom dezember noch hier irgendwo rumliegen, lass mich mal suchen.
Aber sonst ist es in Liechtenstein auch Verfassungstechinsch geregelt, dass nur ein pestimmter Prozentsatz der Gesamtbevölkerung ausländer sein darf... wegen Kultur und so.
Aber man kann einen Kleinstaat, der vieleicht mal halb so gross ist wie eine kleiner Stadt nicht mit einer Macht wie Deutschland vergleichen.
>>58913318
True. Some shots of that film were in Spain as well as Germany.
>>58913324
Ok I see what you mean now. Blazing Saddles is easily one of the funniest movies of all time.
>>58913413
Kann man schon, wen sich die ganzen Ausländer in Berlin oder zb London sammeln und man dann wie die Engländer Minderheit in der eigenen Hauptstadt.
Idiotisch.
I think the Netherlands is a popular setting overall because everyone recognizes it. You have Amsterdam with canals, canal houses and the red light district.
And on the other hand you have the windmills, tulips and grass fields and water.
>>58908597
That game was hated in Spain because the zombies speak in american spanish accent,the location (correct accent) was shit,it was like they made a game in a small village in nothern Spain but with spanish american accent
>>58908597
Pretty much every world war 2 game ever
>>58913414
I mean that the main place all the spaghetti western and a bunch of american western movies were shot was in Almeria since it's the only place in Europe with a genuine desertic climate
except for certain shots of course
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabernas_Desert#Cinema
>>58913538
And cows.
Rome, German villages, the Eiffel tower and the Big Ben are popular landmarks as well. Who obviously get abused in games.
>>58913608
Hell, at least you could understand them. You don't want to know what the do to the Russian language in their movies and games
>>58908597
Uncharted 3 has level that takes place in Cartagena, particularly the preserved 19th-century part of town, which is fitting considering the game.
>>58909553
They speak with a mexican accent despite the villagers being spaniards.
Which is ironic considering people wanted a latin american dub for spanish versions of games for a long time, and the one time they finally get non-spaniard voice actors for hispanic characters is also the one time it's inappropiate.
>>58913688
as he said it was really cringeworthy to see some northern spain villager talking as a mexican
>>58913829
Is that the only problem?
>>58910273

It's surprising that Israel isn't more often the center stage of games. Because it is an interesting and beautiful setting.
>>58914521
Two of our game developers were arrested in Greece for "espionage" (in fact taking photos for real-life locations in ARMA III).
Imagine what would IDF do.
Wolfenstein New Order
>>58914521
1. no it's not
2. there aren't many games set in israel but hebrew is everywhere

Israel is not 'exotic' and not attractive in any way, shape, or form.

I'm sure it bothers Greeks when morons use Σ like E, and slavs when Cyrillic is butchered all the time.
>>58917101
No it doesn't.
>>58908597
That fucking game caused controversy here, because it was supposed to be in Spain, but the people had mexican voices, the spanish police was incompetent, and the own towm seemed to be underdeveloped.
Its like developers took a bunch of stereotypes of Spain and southamerica and put them in the oven.
Yes.
Age of Empires II, Age of Empires III, Medieval Total war...
Age of Empires II, failed to capture the Medieval Portuguese architecture massively, and instead portrayed XVI century Lisbon's architecture only.
Medievall total war Conpletely fucked our Geography.

Age of Empires 3 was pretty acurrate.

Yeah, a Summer Snake.

No, I didn't get very far into it (2spoopy), but it seemed like The State was the boogyman, which I associate with the Soviets in general more than the Polish specifically.
