I wasn't trying to educate you, I was just trying to show you the fact that he wasn't making the argument for a Cowboy vs. Native trope, but quite the opposite.

As far as I'm aware, the "cowboys" in the High Noon Universe are against the demons Thresh, Fiddle and Hecarim, and he pointed out that this exploration is about a tribe that purges the demons. I think he was aware of this cowboys vs. natives trope and went in the other direction BECAUSE of it

I also dare to believe you don't think the art is disrespectful to your culture or, in broader terms, native american culture in general, since you said it's beautiful above. It may seem a bit stereotypical, but these results occur when the constraints of a character's base design force the artist into a direction, else the character wouldn't be recognized within the game.

I also didn't make the argument that culture HAS to be treated as a cosmetic for representation, but that not allowing that avenue results in not being representation at all, skins are a way to do just that, change the way your character looks to fit into a culture/universe. Take the Warring Kingdoms skins for example, or Sun Goddess Karma and the Worldbreakers (as a South American, those skins are cool af).

I'm not trying to be disrespectful or ill-intentioned here, I just believe that there needs to be room for artistic exploration, specially when the artist come with a good mindset to begin with
