its not just games though
In books, movies, the names of things and etc.
Or like things people name there pets, you see more people name their dogs after a god like "My dogs name is Ares xD" instead of "my dogs name is Odin!"
its just all of that
I almost think Marvel movies have made it harder for super mainstream Norse shit to do well
Because mainstream Norse shit will always revolve around Thor, Loki, and Odin
I can see that
I feel like, since its so ingrained in our culture, we've become desensitized to greek/roman mythos
I mean, Roman history is Western history
I feel like so much of what we do culturally is traced back to that
im pretty sure all of these are greek/roman: Harpy, Minotaur, Pegasus,, Satyrs, Scylla, Sirens, Hydras, Amazons (the females xD, should be grouped in with subhumans too though kappa)
and then things like the trojan horse
all of them are greek
everything roman "culture" was greek culture
romans had some original ideas right...>?
even the roman emperors said so, greeks were all about matters of state and culture, romans would do the military stuff
the romans added on to the stuff that they integrated
also, the apollo, you know the space thing
god of knowledge or something
so much stuff
right
no i mean
how usa named our space crafts or some of them
after apollo
he was god of the arts i think
Everything in Space is Greek/Roman named
^ that too
This is why i have serious doubts, i mean it might be possible
but like
wasn't apollo the messenger of the gods
Depends if you're talking Greek or Roman Dialga
Hermes was I thought
hermes is messenger
i can't remember if it was apollo or hermes
Yeah, hermes is the fast one
the ancient greeks built the foundation of western philosophy and knowledge, so it's not surprising that we still honor their stuff
hermes boots lmao xD
i know mercury is the roman equivelant
For a long time we didn't though Fire
medieval europe had some problems
No, I mean up until the 19th century
the renaissance set in motion the discovery of lost greek culture and knowledge
that's how we refigured out most things
We acknowledged a lot of ideas as just being Roman, or just being ancient
We didn't attribute it to Greece until later
true
didnt greece steal shit from Egypt? or did rome steal from both
They both stole from Egypt
Is this setup for a kangz joke
And other Eastern civs
it's not really stealing as it was more retelling the same stories
man
at some point the stories got a little different because the telephone game effect
this makes me realize how little mythos there are that are popular/i know
Egyptian, Greek/Roman, Norse
thats all i know really
Japan
You could probably get by
i dont know a lot about them
there's some Onis
They have those youkais
fgo taught me 99% of my japanese knowledge
its probably not good
China really hates ghosts
aren't skeletons banned in china
Kappa
Yes
Anyone found with a skeleton is executed
china bans everything except sex
Chinese myth is stupid, as are 90% of the rest of the world's
chinese have the best dragons though
The old rule for chinese film: no ghosts, no gays
like rayquaza
kappa
They don't even have wings
Die
smh
>needing wings
