>video game has animal motifs
>it's always a lion
why is it the most overused animal in symbolism
and people joke about canines but if you actually look at official stuff they're barely used as motifs in video games, I usually see bulls, lions, eagles, and stag more prominently.

Because games are influenced by real life.
These animals, especially lions and eagles, have been used in heraldry throughout the world due to their status. Lions are "king of beasts" and are associated with bravery for example

>most overused animal
>not ravens
Lions are one of the dankest historical memes
>>336019137
Lions are meme animals. Tigers are stronger.
>>336019137
why not just make up shit since you're making up things anyway
also iirc lions are in heraldry not because of king of beasts but because of being flowery
I see wolves referenced a hell of a lot more than lions
>>336019482
There is made up shit like the Scots have with unicorns too
>>336019440
They'd probably be a lot of tigers in asian heraldry and sigils
>>336019773

Shark is the best girl.

they make good motifs for flamethrowers
and I think that's a bad way if you're doing worldbuilding, since your world is at the mercy of the focus test

I know right? Sela a qt

I thought Scots love stags.
Or maybe I'm confusing them with another kingdom
Why are frogs referenced throughout history?

represent disease and downturn.
the pepe shit representing increasing human frustration and violent desire is the plague of a civilizations end times turned digital for the times.
>>336018642
Because Lions are the Kings of the Animal Kingdom.
Why is there such a huge personality difference between red zyougher and redninninger?
>>336022235
Because red ninnigger was a shit actor.
Actually Ninninger was completely badexcept for the ending song
I personally prefer birds for animal motifs.

Because Lion's fit very well with medieval European aesthetics.
>One Male Lion acting as king of his pride
>Surrounded by many wives who do a lot of work for him
>If the Male Lion loses to another, he can usurp and commit genocide on the losers offspring with no repercussions
>Big and strong

Funnily lions only lived in Greece for a relatively short periid of time.
>>336018642
Lions are significant in a lot of culture's mythology. But I really don't notice the lion thing a whole ton, I see snakes, and birds of prey used a lot more
>>336029487
That's the point though.
A lot of people never saw a Lion, they were only told what a Lion was like. So most of the people who decided to make a Lion a symbol weren't basing it off real Lion's but on the idea of a Lion they'd built in their heads from stories of the majestic hunting beast able to take down a horse painted black and white, loyally attended by a harem of wives who all differed and obeyed him.
