Fr, but I still wonder which Medjay this is supposed to be. Because they were both a nomadic people and an elite police force in ancient Egypt. I guess since they are looking for a lost/stolen artifact, that's more in line with something the police would do, as their jobs usually included protecting valuable places, like palaces.
Why did you play on the racist american historic revisionism myth that Egyphtians were black, Egypthians hate this, please respect Egypthian culture and people.
If you are from Middle East, South Asia or South East Asia you can forget about any represention from western media. Too white to be black, too black to be white.
@Urboymoe generally speaking, Egyptians looked more like Arabs, kinda like people from Morocco. The Medjay was a term used for Nubians and then later for desert police ranger. BUT, there is a dynasty of "Black" Pharaohs, which is the 25th Dynasty, consisting of a huge Nubian population that was Egyptinized. It's likely Medjay was a mix of Egyptian, Nubian, and 25th dynasty Pharaohs.
Why didn’t Ubisoft develop a sequel to Origins and Bayek’s story rather than this. Would have been much more meaningful and probably more anticipated too.
Because it's a different team, different game, and different franchise. Bayek's story had a good conclusion, just because this one is Egyptian doesn't mean he has to be Bayek
@@bishopcoleman5317 I get what you are saying, it makes sense regarding the team and probably that’s why they did it. For me, he not just an Egyptian, but in the Pharaoh era, and a Medjay specifically. Hard to not think of my body Bayek 😅
