[quote="zitagirl"][quote="AladdinsGenie"][quote="zitagirl"]So Smite is an MOBA and has all kinds of mythological beings and creatures as playable characters from accross the world. It's more than a 10 year old game at this point and recently got announced that we get its sequel, with the alpha starting this May.[/quote]

Ah okay, so they pull from Gods and legends. I don't know if I'd put Aladdin in either of those categories? He's not a legend in the Arthurian sense and definitely not a God like the Greek or the Egyptian ones. Maybe a myth? (I think he and Mulan are closer to 'folktales' but whatever).

Although, I'm assuming that opens up the entire Arabian Nights book to the game, which includes all kinds of cool middle eastern mythology to pull from. I think they just want to use the genies tbh :lol:[/quote]

Yeah, seems more like a Mulan situation, but least for her we had the Chinese pantheon to fit in.

Yeah, this definitely opens up for more folklore stuff from around the world, which would be cool.

[quote="AladdinsGenie"] I think they just want to use the genies tbh :lol:[/quote] Yet in all those years they only did like 2 genie skins and there's only 1 Aladdin reference in the whole game. Think it was for a cosmic skin and it goes like "Infinite cosmic powers, itty-bitty texture space"

I just hope the genie(s) won't just be a Genie copy. Wouldn't feel right in my opinion.

Meanwhile the Dreamlight Valley community is also like "nah, it can't be Oswald or Figment, the lucky villager will definitely be either Genie or Aladdin" and while I heavily doubt this, it does make my fan side hope it would be this way.  :lol: Still need to wait 1 more week for that update but man, it's killing me now XD[/quote]
