How would you describe orientalism? I'm Asian and grew up in the US. I don't really get it, and maybe a lot of discomfort I've felt in my life would make more sense if I could identify when I see it. in c/askchapo@hexbear.net

Strong recommendation to read Orientalism by Palestinian American scholar Edward Said, who established Orientalism as a critical concept. It's very approachable, you don't need any other background knowledge.

Adding a third suggestion of A Short Hike, really a nice game.

I'm in love with isometric prerendered games from the late 90's early 2000's again! in c/games@hexbear.net

An early one to check out is Landstalker for the Sega Genesis. Hand drawn isometric adventure game, kinda Zelda like. One of my all time faves.

For a good and quick Diablo-like, check out Nox.
