We're making a game where you play a courier rider in 13th century Mongolia

No combat, just you, the horse(s) you've tamed, bred and trained and the vast wilderness.

that makes no sense for dev resources. we'd rather focus our efforts on the features we actually WANT to add

This is surely how all successful Jewish lives matter games earn money right
Sounds cool, but why no combat? I don't need to be in the heart of the gameplay, but these times were dangerous. Especially if you travelled alone through wilderness

Because sweetie it's made by women who don't play videogames so it's Mongolian Barbie for horse girls not an actual videogame

I knew this Korean when I was a kid. To preserve his anonymity we'll just call him Kim and say that he ended up being way more successful than the rest of us at everything. Anyway, he said when he was born that he had the "Mongolian blue butt". Some kind of bruising that isn't anything to worry about, just a cosmetic thing. But he said that proves you're a descendant of real Mongols, and apparently every Korean knows about this. I still to this day have no idea if this is 100% true or he was just pulling my leg.
I fricking loved that guy. Got into a slight conflict with him once because we both appreciated Persian princesses. I can't remember them anymore as well as I remember him.

I don't even think its like a Mongolian thing that entered Korean culture but like something the Japs believed about Mongolians that somehow got passed down to the Koreans.
I think the shamans thought it was like a mark of the gods or some bullshit. Marked for greatness or something.
I knew a girl who was born with that. She is the giga-est of giga-stacies.

No, that's 100% real. It's not bruising, just abnormal melanin. But if you don't have a fricking blue butt, you aren't a fricking rightful inheritor of the fricking mandate of heaven. !khaganate

One thing they did in Darklands to keep it interesting is that you run into the encounter and you don't know which it will be. Those are probably just starving refugees, but if you get too close you might find out they're actually satanists trying to lure you in closer to murder you...

I am on record saying for decades that I want more games that aren't all about combat, this is the next frontier after Dan Bunten made games that weren't arcade shit in the early 1980s, and that foids are probably the right people to make them. And specifically I am interested in the 1400s. I mean ffs I spent like 20 hours in the last week writing about Darklands. And my other favorite thing in the world is a TV show about a girl who works in a kitchen in 1400s Korea.
The problem with this tho is that this r-slur chose the single thing you could do on the planet at the time that's most likely to get you into combat. Being a courier in Central Asia in the 1300s is not a great job if you don't like taking risks. I'm gonna venture a guess here that she has never actually had a conversation with a black guy about places where he doesn't go because he doesn't like getting robbed.

Which period in Mongolia?
Even Temujin (oh I'm sorry Genghis Khan I bet I'm the only person who knew that) was captured and taken hostage. His wife was taken hostage and came back pregnant within 9 months so nobody knew if Genghis r*ped her or her captors did.
But even the steppes weren't fully pacified during his lifetime. The next generation maybe things were okay, but by the time of the third generation the cracks were starting to show.
!historychads when was the most peaceful time of the Eurasian steppe? I don't believe the line that "a virgin could cross the length of the Mongol Empire with a pot of gold on her head and never be molested" because I'd make sure she wasn't a virgin. !male feminists

The most peaceful time was probably in the 1950s, when the soviet union, Iran and Afghanistan all had decent governments
Until the 19th century settled empires were unable to project power into the steppe, it took the Qing and Russian empire a ton of organisation and genocide to pacify the region and even then when the xinhai and Russian revolutions erupted central asia was in chaos once more
