Because "StopAsianHate The Game", aka AssCreed/Yassuke Wuz Samz evidently wasn't enough of a sociological and financial disaster they have to keep pouring on the fatigue.

The only reason Africa still has any "artifacts" is because Europeans preserved them. A majority were left rotting in the dust.

There is precisely ZERO evidence that any of those artefacts were created by, nor ever belonged to Africans anyway. The Egyptians were NOT negroid (despite what Disney and Ubisoft would have you believe).

Plenty of evidence of lost cultures scattered all across the Sahara: mummies with ginger beards and straight hair, tomb walls depicting people with blue eyes and women with golden hair, footprints of huge cities, roads and harbours that are not supposed to have existed. A thousand years from now, mainstream archeologists digging up the ruins of London will unearth a kebab stand and conclude that the city was built by pajeets. And anyone who questions that will be deemed a pseudo-scientist and a “dangerous idiot”.

This commie narrative about “stolen artefacts” has been stupid and retarded since day 1. The Egyptians caused incalculable damage to the pyramids and other megaliths, chiseling the stone to repurpose for construction, same thing all over the Middle East. All those sacred temples and ruins in the Amazon were swallowed up by vines and rainforest, with the locals giving zero fucks, and the Chinese left hundreds of miles of their Great Wall to rot and crumble (until it started becoming a tourist attraction of course).

White European nations were the first to actually give a shit about preserving anything of value from Africa or the Middle East or studying the ancient past, the other nations who just happen to be unproductively squatting on that land now in the modern day have no claim to it IMO. Fuck them.

Yes, the Websters 1828 dictionary definition of negro specifically notes that it always referred only to subsaharan black africans and not north africans like egyptians, berbers, etc.

Reminds me of the Rozetta stone, which was being used as a piece of wall with nobody caring about it until European explorers noted how extraordinary it was.

The same can be said for almost everything, really. Egyptians were using mummy wrappings to wrap their lunches because graverobbing was cheaper than paper! All the wood and cloth "artifacts" of native Americans decay and are lost within a generation if not safekept. It takes a particularly successful and forward-thinking society to want to bother to preserve anything.

Now, notably, those old Egyptians DID want to preserve things, it's only the modern ones that were despoiling it. Some major thing must've changed at some point.

But a "true" restoration of the rightful "original" place of these artifacts would be to steal them away, then burn them all, or compost them, or melt them down or whittle them into wood/iron nails and horseshoes. Because that's what happened to all artifacts outside of European domain: Reduced, reused, and recycled, rather than preserved.

That's why this is a game and just "Looted" does not exist: because just picking shit off the ground that blacks don't value isn't a challenge.

If I were to go full tin-foil hat on this one, I would say that all the time they spent developing this and marketing this is a big 4D chess move with the end goal of saying "See?! See!? This is undeniable proof that white pepo are racis! And we need to do something about it NOW!"

My favorite was when you capture the artifacts back apparently you place them on a trophy wall made of mud.

Literally taking it from a secure building and "restoring" it to a mud hut somewhere.

And then a lion attacks and eats you at the end of the game because a mud hut means fuck all against wildlife.

Unlock the special bonus ending where it's simply an elephant stomping over the hut and also destroying the trophy wall heap.

Which Africans? It's a fucking huge landmass and not a monolithic group of people. In fact many neighbouring tribes fucking despise each other and have been in decades long blood feuds that only ever result in death and care for little else, "cultural trinkets" or otherwise as long as the other side is dead, dismembered, and being dined on.

I've seen how Africans treat artifacts. They looted a university in South Africa, dumped all the artifacts in a pile outside, set it on fire, and ooga-booga-danced around the burning pile of history.

Ah, this routine again. A game trailer that expects me to root for the hip, young, diverse protagonists purely because they're hip, young, and diverse while being the sole aggressors in the depicted conflict. Much like the recent Saints Row game (which bombed) and Beyond Good and Evil pre-sequel (which went into development hell AGAIN). Wokists don't know how to make their heroes look like heroes within a couple minutes. Kind of like how they can't make a meme without writing a novel's worth of word salad into it.

On another note, African futurism is such a retarded term. In the rest of the world, it's just called futurism, or cyberpunk, or plain science fiction. The idea that Sub-Saharan Africas would develop their own distinct-looking technological future is a laugh. All technology they have in the modern world is a remnant of what other nations left over for them, all of which is breaking down as we speak. Everything they develop is a crude imitation with no understanding of how it actually works. Wakanda they ain't...and even Wakanda, which isn't that spectacular of a culture itself, only got to where it is because of magical space metal.

They don't even realize their own lunacy. The whole game stereotypes black ghetto culture in the most vile and racist way but these twits think it's ok because it furthers "The Message" and meanwhile denigrating the field of archaeology outright.

Also - Indiana Jones is a villain now... but then he wuz a white guy anyway so that went without saying...
