Where is the Latino Culture at in WoW?

It’s not being dismissed. It’s Ragnaros.

The Zandalari remind one an awful lot of the Aztecs to me. One pop culture reference does not a complete port make. Rastakhan was Montezuma in a lot of ways. Lots of gold, tricked by some bad advisors, invited some people who dredged up to his empire… and later winds up getting killed later due to said individuals presence. :woman_shrugging:

You’ll find that WoW races tend to draw inspiration from many races, and that Blizzard is not defined by demands of people who time and again cite a need for them to bend to their personal brand of “political correctness”.

These people also in their hubris usually demand that X or Y MUST become a reality, ‘or else!’. (Or else what I ask? They’ll quit? I can only hope they do so. Blizzard and the other players will be happier as a collective without such foolishness abounding I wager.).

Blizzard is wise to disregard these demands because it would constrain their creative license. Moreover Blizzard does not need to prove their inclusive nature. Their Developers know their brand, and can judge themselves based off what their hearts tells them. They have no one they need explain themselves to. Not me. Not the OP. No one.

I am very thankful that it does not factor in any single individual’s meaningless opinion, or allow itself to be ruled by a mob mentality. That is not how you ever want to develop video games. By my estimates folks ought to be glad for what they have and stop trying to make ludicrous claims IMHO.


TLDR:

When Blizzard wants to reference to Latino Culture, Blizzard will do so; and not a day before.

So we are all talking about having this culture in so on and so forth… Let me remind you that is purely a game and nothing else it is not real life … IT IS A GAME . So with me saying that Where are the Aliens? where are the Koalas, the Ducks , The Drop Bears, Aussie Road Trains!!!, Kangaroos!!! Hey I know what about an Aussie accent. See how stupid this game will get even more with all that in it. It is a game. leave it the way it is. Now I will go have a cuppa and sit down and play and enjoy the game as it is intended!!! have a great day!!!

Isn’t there a WoW micro holiday based on Latino culture? Day of the dead or something.

My self I’m a mixture of Eurasia cultures. The Irish, Scottish and probably English portion are more akin to Scandinavian due to the Norse, Frank and… I’m forgetting an invasion or two. Very little of my Albion side can be claimed to originate from there. My Slavic side for a number of current culture reasons goes unrepresented.

It’s why I hate identity politics. By current definition my heritage doesn’t exist. I’m just “white”.

That’s because most of the people who talk about it, typically Americans, have little grasp on history or geography.

I’ve been waiting nearly 9 hours for this and you haven’t replied after you said you would. All we have in our lives are our word.

Don’t expect him to reply. This is the second time this guy does this, he only keeps the bait going for a little bit and then vanishes until the next time he feels like throwing the bait again.

Cajun culture

The humans in game arent based on earth humans. Pandaria was 100 percent done for china so they are a little transparent in what they do.

Honestly I think this game is so bent on being diverse, While there is Caucasians you can play as there is very little Caucasian culture. Where is the American football?

Also, if you want to get picky:

Though I live in the USA, I’m actually IN Nebraska. I see no Nebraska culture in Wow! This totally offends me, to the point where… oh wait, all those cornfields in some zones…

Never mind!

Was joking, I knew it exists just like the Latino stuff exists. People are just choosing to ignore it because they want some cause to bring up and be all angry about.

I feel like you answered your own question right there.

That being said – they literally have a day of the dead celebration in the game.

Westfall is waiting for you!

But where is Eastfall?

Heck I dunno, can barely see anything through this helmet.

Its not being dismissed. Stop it already.

Where is Aussie culture?
Where is Russian culture?
Where is southern USA culture?
Where is Louisiana culture?
Where is Maine culture?

There are thousands of different cultures not even remotely represented so just stop it. Youre not special.
