REAL Aztec EXPLAINS Ocelotl's Armor & Weapons!! |For Honor: "Ocelotl" Aztec Hero 

Its cool that you an Aztec or the more modern version of that is just giving us insight and a better understanding about the meanings of these words and weapons and culture its really interesting and cool once again peace from the north my friend

For more of a lesser known culture, it’s great to see for honor make a Aztec warrior, and have an Aztec commentate on it.

I am Acolhua-Mexica, my family is from Huexotzinco, Cholollan (Cholula), and Acolhuacan (Texcoco). I’m loving the representation our culture is getting, and I can’t wait for more. Mexica ma tiyacan! ✊🏽☀️

It would be interesting I think to see a armor set inspired by the armor of the Inca. There was interactions between the Aztecs and Incas, and the unique thing about the Inca is that they had forged proper metal weapons and armor out of copper compared to the rest of Mesoamerica. So Incan inspired armor could be interesting to see just cause it would be different from the other mostly bare chested armor sets that lack proper armor.

I'm Guatemalan and I really wish they would put a Mayan warrior, maybe with an axe like our thunder god, Chaac. At least one of our people are being represented in a game. Nice video! 👍

The last time someone did a video like this I think was a shaolin reacts to shaolin and I think this really cool and insightful I like learning more like this

Really cool video! Its nice to see a more relevant perspective when looking at this stuff. Lots of the parts of the Aztec aesthetic and culture fascinates me, so I'm really happy this hero is coming out and is so well designed (visually and playstyle wise. In game lore is ehh but that's neither here nor there).

Now that you mention it, it would be cool to see designs based on hummingbirds due to the correlation with Huitzilopochtli or have his snake sword or a Coyotl and Skull helms, not the mask we have, but the Tlacaelel skull armor seen in codex

It's nice to learn more about the culture when I never had too much of an interest in it, there's lots of things I had no idea about until I found these videos and its been fun to hear from someone related to it. Nice Stuff!

Hopefully in the future they give him an armor set with different war banners equipped on the back and a helmet set resembling the open faced skull helmets

As a mexican, It was so cool to get the Mexica representation finally! I really wish they had added piercings to the one warrior where piercings were super important to the culture.

So glad to have youtubbe recommend me somethin i am interested in. Im always curious and on the lookout for videos of native people or others to respond to their somewhat representation in video games mainly. I was always quite intrigued by the mesoamerican cultures and their idea of dualtity, being life and death. What got me really interested again was shadow of the tomb raider and though its sad Lara wont speak in Nahuatl or Quechua, i still love to imagine the magnificence that those ancient empires mustve had. I really pray we will get more games featuring mesoamerican cultures: The Aztecs, Olmecs, Toltecs, Maya, Inca and the many more. Be assured that whenever someone lumps them all together in one category im swift to correct them. Love and great interest from Germany🇩🇪 Stay safe and healthy

such a good video bro, very informative easy to listen too! You did a great job at breaking everything down while keeping it interesting, very excited to see your channel grow!

I love the facts in this vid, I love learning history of different cultures, the gods mainly but this video was better then I imagined!!! Keep up the good work

Its always good to see Indigenous Representation.. love from Navajo Tribe

Very nice video! Love how you don't just be hyper critical of the obviously 'video game' parts of the weapons and armour. Very kind hearted video, very informative

For honor is having a event on the 27th for people that come back on in case you’re looking to get back into it

Super cool video!!! Was very interesting! ^^

I do hope one of his later armor sets would have him with cotton armor.

Never thought i would see some representation in this game. Although I am Native American and Mexican, not technically Aztec. i am just thankful for part of my culture to get some representation.

It's good to have you back my brother...

Buen video mi hermano, tlazocamati 🙏

Kinda sad they didn’t give us the shield, its one of the coolest parts of the Aztec drip. But the shield spot was already taken by the previous hero so what can you do. The Aztecs are such a fascinating culture and people. They’re just so different and exotic compared to the rest of the world, probably owing to the Americas separation from the rest of the world. The only equivalents being some of the first Bronze Age kingdoms and empires and some pacific cultures. They’re advanced and sophisticated with colossal temple cities and complex government, yet savage and ferocious with flint, copper and obsidian weaponry, sacrificing their enemies in bloody rituals to the gods. I’ve been reading accounts from actual Conquistadors, particularly Bernal Diaz’s account called The Conquest Of New Spain. It’s a fascinating read and the Spaniards really feel like strangers in a strange land. It’ll always be the question as to what would’ve happened if the Aztecs managed to survive those initial conquerors. I’m fascinated as to the religious realm, with Aztec society built around sacrifice, and Christianity being centred around Jesus, who is the last sacrifice. Could you imagine a Aztec/Christian hybrid religion?

Can't wait for a real kyoshin to explain kyoshin

I wonder if you ever watched “Apocalypto“ I used to watch that movie all the time and was fascinated by it

Buen video bro

Saludos hermano good content

I would like if you gave your thoughts on the lore and story behind this character. RavenKnight has videos reading them if you're interested.

There are two versions of Nahuatl, the classic version it is pronounced Ocelot" still spelled the same but in Traditional new version you do pronounce the "tl" I prefer the Classic sounds correct

I’m a bit disappointed that as of character launch we won’t have an Axolotl themed armor set. Seeing as the salamander is regional to the Aztecs and is named in honor of Xolotl

Hi! I don’t know if your familiar with warhammer 40K at all, but Im trying to make a Aztec based space marine chapter, but I’m having a hard time getting the colors down, and I wondered if you had any suggestions?

Real Aztec reacts to For Honor: Wow that's really accurate, you can see they did their research Real Shaolin reacts to For Honor: *hits ubisoft with a stick*

I had a question about some of the priest masks. A couple of them have fangs coming out that are very visually similar to Asian depictions of demons (like Oni), as far as I can tell the only depictions of Mesoamerican art I've seen with similar fangs are very modern. Is it an aesthetic choice purely or is there an example of it from an ancient depictions? If you have an example that would be great! Also in the weapons there are a couple with Shark teeth used for the blades, was that even accessible to the Aztecs or used by them bc as far as I know only Pacific Islanders such as the Moari had similar weapons? Thanks!

I have a question which macuahuiti is the most accurately depicted in this game out of I’m guessing the first 3

just askign for curiosity , did aztecs rly had the skull whistle that was shown in the trailer? the one thatreplicates the scream of a human?

You are an Aztec as in one of many cultures that were part of the Aztec empire

I thought the green was an alligator 😂

I've been trying to find a translation of some of his voice lines. Mainly the willy wanka one. I'm a brit with the humor of a 12 yo so it cracks me up. So if you want it means I'd love to find out.

just now seeing this but in my culture the sun and moon god are the mountain lion and owl.

What are you doing instead of giving us our gold? ~Spanish conquistador

Is there a fancy language you learned from your parents?

They could made Ocelotl more historic accuracy but couldn't with Afeera, seems they have Arabic-phobia
