As a person with Native history in my family and my best friend is native and a game dev who often goes around the country and makes talks about natives and how they are and not represented in games and film and how it's a real issue. Natives also being a huge part of my states culture. Yeah really. You being form Germany it's something you have zero knowledge or uderstanding of and your two word comment shows your ignorance.

Well, I am not averse to represent different cultures, but as far as I see it Horizon is a game in a completely fictional setting. It is not historical. The inhabitants of the world aren't native americans, native australians, native celtic tribes or native germanic tribes (that were called barbarians by the 'civilized' roman empire. So applying the logic the figures in the game represent some native, maybe american natives, makes in my opinion as much sense as asking why in a science fiction setting there are green but no black aliens.

They are taking from specific cultures but not aknowledging or crediting them. Not a single Native in the game where it has Native aspects alll over it. Now ina  world where humans live in tribal like settings they also would be a bit more tan being in the sun all day long for hundreds or thousands of years. They do not have the complexion of Conan O Brien. So they still in fact are white washing. Turok for how stupid it is is more accurate and that's what is crazy.
