I really, really hope you're joking. If you're this intolerant of anything that references middle eastern culture, then you are sad, sad person.

Heaven forbid you watch something as horrifying as disney's Aladdin.

By the way, here's something that will blow your mind: among thousands of other inventions, COFFEE was invented in the middle east.

Think about that next time you enjoy your Starbucks.

Whoa, some thread...

Woe to KB, for making such relations... And in only 3 words... How about we discuss the civilization series, where you choose such civics/policies, you can play with islamic leaders, you can do anything they did. Does that make you a terrorist? No.

On the other hand, KB with its 3 words based on oriental beliefs makes it a terrorist supporting game. Great logic.

In the end, to each his own. I hadn't had the chance to play much, but I really like what I'm seeing so far. Best of the series all in one package. Me likey!!!

Did you play the play the part where the undead folk crashes a flying ship into the Viking watchtowers OP?

this thread should be locked and some of you should receive bans or warning for all this nonsensical racist hate speech which is against the rules here

This guy isn't referenced as someone who is 'obviously middle eastern' but someone who is and was around where Islam was practiced. Which puts Islam in your whole game setting. Which puts kind of everything else in the whole picture too. It's not unique anymore.

The world is supposed to be unique, isn't it? Which means that you cannot use historical connotations, only general ones. You can use middle eastern but you can't use Ottoman anything because that has a connotation you cannot generalize. Which means you cannot use Sultan anything.

English literature is very strict on this kind of thing. You know, time periods, anachronisms, pretty sure there is a definition for this sort of example as a no-no.

As a literary framework, it is not done. And every serious author knows this.

It's not the same thing as basing your story around the Norse gods. Not even remotely close.

Just two different mythologies, with some overlap. If they had Christian Mythology mixed in (and they do, to a small extend, with priests and inquisitor units), it would not change anything.

Hah, hey OP, I just realized the BIGGEST surprise is yet to come for you. Did you know you'll be able to summon demons from pentegrams, very likely, later in the game? Demons. From Pentagrams.

OMG Zechnophobe, you`re right there are demons in tihs game so obviously it support satanistic cults and all that play or were in any way connected in development of it are satan worshipers :-P What a bigot KaryAnn.

And I forgot to give red alert as an example. It has the Crazy Ivan, who wear bomb armor and can self-destruct to rain death on enemies or destroy structures.

My, what a terrorist reference that is!!!

i'm muslim and i'm finding this post pretty hilarious hahahaha
@OP yes you should uninstall it , why to bother with religious games ...
