because it is a culture-devoid shithole. the reason there are games set in ancient egypt, ancient rome, ancient europe, ancient south america, ancient native america etc? CULTURE. the south has fucking none
They should have just said the fucking east, because look at this shit!
>some small % of people in IL through PA consider it the "south"
Fucking how?
There was that one fallout 3 dlc filled with red neck zombies.
too blaqq
>wv a place that fucked off from virginia due to the war slightly considers itself south
>kentucky too for some reason
am i missing something?
The South isn't even a strong identity, that's why
>California is literally more southern then half of those, yet is considered north
???????????????
>ohio is a southern state
Kansas was very solidly part of the north and missouri was very much a part of the south. Google the Jayhawkers. Also there is an old civil war prison in independence missouri that has been turned into a museum and by the end of it it is very clear they are still bitter that they lost.
California doesn't belong with anything and shoud frigg off
South is a fucking direction, there should be a fucking line in the middle.
The south has multiple games
Northwest game when?
yankees are just that annoying
It's considered West dumbass
The "west" is pretty far east bro
>tfw georgia
Then why are all the eastern states Southern, retard?
Yes. for any curious yuros, here's a general map of american regions. note how the southernmost tip of florida really isn't in the "south"
Worse yet, there is a small % of people that don't consider Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, etc. as part of the sount
American here, this all wrong
Arizona was part of the confederacy
Bc they hate every fucking thing north of them.
The SF bay area should definitely be looped into the west coast. Nobody here considers ourselves NW.
Looks like user played hookey during 7th grade civics class
Did you forget which way is west?
retard mutt can't comprehend the regional map of it's own country
>southern = confederate
I don't save brainlet wojaks as a rule but if i did i would post one
yeah I psoted the map and that's the most glaring error I can see but otherwise it like the best option on the first page of google
I live in Utah and I consider it east US
no one uses most of these terms, this map is fucking retarded
I think that's going geographically rather than by the Civil War, since the Civil War charts don't bother mentioning things like the Gulf Coast or Mid-Atlantic areas.
It's all relative
Large tracts of forgettable farmland mired in poverty isn't a good game setting.
>incredibly realistic game about hunting and fishing in the mountains of Kentucky
If they could get the AI on the animals to work just right I would love something like this. Not even kidding. Make a game that let's me sit in a tree stand for 5 hours doing nothing but listening to the sounds of the wilderness. Maybe I'll bag a deer in those 5 hours or maybe I won't. Let me field dress it and drag it out of the woods too.

>villagers are all poor, dirty brainwashed hobos who can't speak english, are hostile to outsiders, live in the woods, and whose only activities are going to church, catching dogs in beartraps, and occasionally setting someone on fire
You're thinking of the midwest.
fuck off new york. you aren't invited
What do you consider western? Hawaii?
Calling anything a retard when you can't write.
as someone from the south, is pretty much /thread
the only games i can think of set in the south are zombie shooters. all the south has to recommend it for storytelling is old racism and the "lazy sickness" caused by hookworm way back when
We need to round up the group of people who think Georgia is part of the south but don't think Florida is and execute them.
Guam
How the fuck am I both the Deep South and the Heartland?
>ancient native america
>ancient south america
Name nine.
The south is the worst region in all of America. It's full of fundie nutjobs, niggers, poverty, obesity, shitty education systems, and cockroaches.
>the south
>culture devoid
Excuse me?
florida isn't even part of the u.s.
>the south
>devoid of culture
new orleans alone is more culturally influential than ancient south america ever was
The Rockies have the best culture of any part of the US, both the southern and northern Rockies.
>Florida is literally the furthest South
>not considered as Southern
Also just because a setting exists doesn't mean it would be entertaining as a game. Unless you're playing a hunting game then wading through a fucking bog isn't going to feel like anything but a trip to Blighttown.
Arizona wasn't even a state until 1912
don't mind the zoomers that have never read any books
I don't know anything about Americans other then their southern culture, you might be retarded.
This map is terrible in so many ways. Here's an actually cool map.
>using people's opinions to decide what is the south
>when there is objective data showing exactly where the south is
The south is a shithole with an awful history but i forgive everything they have done for inventing biscuits and gravy.
What good has come from the south? Even the accents there are terrible.
That map looks identical
>culture-devoid shithole
I mean, and this is as someone living in the Dixie part of Florida, I don't blame people for just thinking Florida is all Puerto Ricans and New Yorkers. That's the image that the state government seems to want us to be.
all califag soiboii devs think the south has is raycists and horsefucker alcoholics. i'd play a game about the south, particularly i like the paranormal voodoo louisiana vibe from true detective
Fuck you Northie!!
all the correct people? calling Miami part of "the south" (not "south") is entirely unhelpful
What's your favorite part of the US?
Why is the south the only place with Americans?
I just thought you were all old people.
south is literally the most culture rich area of the USA you yurotrash
t. minnesota
kek he's right. this means people judge a state to be southern on whether or not they remember seeing a waffle house there
>heartland island
All this does is make me want to move to the Midwest.
top left, shoo shoo californiggers
its similar, but not exactly the same. the main plus is it isnt based on the opinion of yankees that think anywhere below dc is farms and pig shit
Yes. The only culture it has is one of subversion and betrayal.
Southern Kentucky here. Because the South is actual filth. My family abandoned our house and jumped ship to the West because our area legitimately devolved into the likes of Slab City. There was a kid in my 6th grade class who got tased in the lunchroom (during lunch) because he was selling Meth in class, and when the cops came to arrest him he grabbed his (the cop's) gun. It's honestly a really bad part of the country. The Southern charm is gone, and it took our teeth with it.
Holy shit it's perfect.
That's a lot of Germans
The actual number of residents who consider these states southern is higher than the survey would suggest. I still couldn't tell you why.
>2000
guarantee there'd be a lot more pink counties in 2020
Yeah if it wasn't for those southern democrats america would be a white country
Why do you hate yourself?
In this graphic, "American" is another way of saying MUTT
No it fucking isn't. Holy shit I made a terrible mistake when I moved from Ohio to Texas, I am going back as soon as possible.
Vice City
Most of the old people are New Yorkers but yeah, should've mentioned those too.
Imagine living in a state with zero Waffle Houses.
You've got it backwards. I hate everybody else. I love myself so much nobody else can compare.
>he doesn't have huge mountains on his skyline
why bother?
this
fucking californiggers moving up here and then bitching constantly during the winter when it rains a lot. If you don't like it then fucking leave.
Inbreeding.
There's a 100% chance you are a Mutt
Missouri was a slave state, but Missouri never seceded from the Union. They were as much a part of the south as Delaware was.
>mormons
I've spent half my life in the south and half of my life in the North almost equally. Georgia and New Jersey to be specific. The north has absolutely no culture, none whatsoever. People up here have no soul, they're barely human beings. If they're not being cunts they're eating generic pizza from mom & pop pizza chain #2690 or getting high on heroin. I miss the south with all my heart, and if I have the financial opportunity, my kids will be raised down there.
My state has 1 waffle house, so I guess I'm good.
Point lookout is in Maryland. You might as well consider all of Fallout 3 to take place in the south since it takes place around DC.
Mormons aren't too bad as they filter out all the lefties
Colorado is nice too
>Texas
theres your problem
utah and new england are the only places with americans
I believe that's what they refer to as culture shock user
>listening to people from California never shut the fuck up about In-N-Out or Jack in the Box
Those philistines make me sick.
Please don't judge the entire Northern part of the country based solely on New Jersey. We hate them too.
Why do people outside the south not have porches?
I'm in southern city and every house has a porch and people go sit on their porch and wave/chat.
But in other states the houses don't have a porch.
Honestly, the Jim Crow laws forcing blacks into seperate communities and in turn making those said communities feel ostracized and at odds with the whites is why we have a nigger problem today.
It backfired so badly.
>moving from the fat people state to the state of making every food item being big
why wouldn't you be happy?
I would rather be soulless in the north than live among niggers, spics, and retarded hicks in the south.
Which has the most unbearable weather, Arizona or Florida?
I've never been to a Waffle House. What's the deal?
mountain west gang
All I have to say is ILLINOIS YOU DISGUSTING FUCKS, WASH YOUR DAMN HANDS, YOU'RE SPREADING THE KONG FUCKING FLU!!
We have Whataburger though
This chart is such bullshit, user. There was at least 7 Waffle Houses in my town in KY - probably less than 100,000 residents. Waffle House is the Starbucks of the rural South.
Definitely not true, sweaty. Unless you count the white flight areas - which is honest to God 2,000,000+ residents in our tiny county (238 total counties in state)
>less than 1% of familes made >$100,00/year
>literally ALL lived on the old plantations up in the hills higher than town
If you're anywhere outside of those parts, you can guarantee the only culture you're experiencing is the equivalent of cutlure in civil war torn African territories.
Why don't blacks just oppress whites like asians and indians do? Also why don't blacks get mad at native americans for oppressing them? Also why did the results of all this oppression business mysteriously match the results of our average racial IQs?
It's a generic-ass breakfast chain. The fact that southerners consider it their pride and joy should really tell you something about the south.
Arizona is a fucking hell hole.
>nothing grows
>yards are literally rocks and cactus
>feels like you're in an oven if you step outside
Irony is that the niggers in the north are much more insufferable than the ones in the south. Retarded hicks beat retarded northerners by a mile, and there's way way more spics up here. In Georgia I remember seeing one asian, up here, they're fucking everywhere.
Arizona is bad when it hits 115+ degrees, but at least it's not humid
Unless it's right after a thunderstorm in which case everything is shit
Thank you. I fucking hate my Californian coworkers. Nonstop bitching about living here and how there's nothing to do. Move back. Just fucking leave.
It's Huddle House, but with niggers and worse food.
t. S. Carolinian
>It's a generic-ass breakfast chain
No it's distinct from ihop, denny's, etc because instead of frozen dishes etc it's all short order cooked in front of you.
Based user making southern scum seethe
One march wasn't enough, Sherman should have finished the job
we have porch in australia usually but they're small and at ground level and we call them verandahs
florida. youll pray for a dry heat after 1 hour in a 100% humidity swamp
you ever seen a movie where people on a road trip stop in a dive diner? its like that. it looks kinda gross but the food is cheap greasy and filling. also open 24 hours with full breakfast
i thought huddle house was rebranding? also i think theyre mostly southern too
The reason why whites in the South consider themselves as "American", is because of the presence of blacks. With so many of them around, the differences between whites ceases to matter. The minor differences between an Irishman and a German and an Italian make absolutely no difference to you when the gulf of difference between all of you and a nigger is so stark.
>Larimer County, Colorado
>30 minutes from the mountains
>laughs in Pike's Peak
Top kek, mormon. Enjoy your MOOOOOOOOOOOO-AAAAAAAAAAAAAB!
Do you guys have fry sauce where you live
Louisianafag here
kill me I want to die
>Gulf Coast
Oh thank god, I'm not a Southerner!
It's generic breakfast food but when you're drunk or high at 3am it's the greatest place to ever exist
Colorado is based too
I live the whole rocky mountains region.
It does suck trying to get some liquor here, though
Upper midwest has both shitty humid mosquito hotness in the summer and unbearable cold and wind in the winter. I ice fish just to say fuck you to the weather.
Shut up, SHOE!!
>fry sauce
i get the feeling this is yankee talk for mayonnaise
It's not so bad. Most people I meet are nice at least
Gulf coast is literally the taint of America.
>Texas isnt not its own region
>Northeast instead of New England, and has half of upstate New York
Fucking disgusting
*I love the whole Rocky Mountains region
We're south of the South
Biscuits & gravy doesn't count as culture.
GEORGIA BROS WWA KEMP IS A FUCKING RETARD
The fuck are you on about?
The main problem with niggers is the black community encouraging them to chimp out
Without the "black community" none of this would be possible.
The Irish were treated a lot like black people and funny enough, even though they were portrayed as stupid as dumb nigger monkeys, the Irish assimilated. And that's because it was a lot fucking harder to make a Jim Crow law for red headed white people
>everyone dancing around the elephant in the room
That explains all the crabs.
It's more like mayonnaise mixed with ketchup and a few other things
Huddle House is a separate chain, we have both.
in 50 years black people will still be the poorest people, in 50 years after that too. if black people actually want to be equal they need to realize that's never going to happen around other races, you can't make retards make as much money as the not retarded.
>Arizona was part of the confederacy
no it wasnt.
arizona was not even a territory
it was part of the new mexico territory at the time.
arizona was created as a territory by the union forces.
you dumb nigger
Yeah folks are pretty nice for the most part
But statistically we rank close to worst for state rankings
No retard
Notice how the american counties are all in the appalacians?
Even now, nobody wants to move to the appalacians.
california is literally the worst state in the union.
>literally takes away second ammendment rights
California is a beautiful state ruined by politics
Beautiful coastline, central valley for agriculture, Sierra Nevada, Cascades up north, and the eastern deserts make it a microcosm of the whole US
It's a shame
Miami is another fucking country, it makes me actually feel ill how weird and alien it is. Takes me a few hours to adjust.
We have a race problem because more than one race lives here, dumbass.
How strict is the sales for those types of services? In Larimer County they're wanting to ban alcohol sales after midnight - Boulder County already has. I.E., dumb because CU Boulder and CSU Ft. Collins. Girl I went to high school with was a hardcore Mormon, and she said that this is easy mode, and that at BYU there's borderline pseudo-prohibition at times because, you know, BYU. Is it really that hard to get substances like that?
Also I was JK, Moab rules. I trespassed around at 0330 going to Arizona and California last May and November. Really pretty, great hiking too. Just need to mod a Wrangler now and go full Moab tourist.
>no games with an Appalachian setting
youtube.com
Join the club, the only thing MO is known for is cheep gas.
>statewide rent control
i know, i'm just shitposting because wrong geography makes people madder than most things
Pre AC being inside in the South was intolerable during the afternoon in Summertime. Being in sunlight was also intolerable at those hours. Thus the large porch became the site for afternoon social gatherings, relaxation, and just generally existing. Somewhere more temperate would have no problems just staying indoors, thus no need for a large porch.
>N-NOO NOT THE LITTLE LAND LORDIOS
The ones in orange are all correct except for Texas.
>rust belt
>colorado
>desert southwest
how the fuck is the southern US more culturally devoid than the north? there's whole fucking holidays that the rest of the country doesn't even celebrate down there.
All "American" counties cluster next to black counties, you absolute mong.
>paradise on Earth
>politics ruin everything
Ironically enough my Aunt and her husband are hardcore Trumpers that live in Winchester, and my gay Aunt lives in La Jolla. They're always arguing about everything, but they both always say if you put politics aside it's the best place on Earth.
For me it's pimento cheese.
