Talk:War of Unification

Echoes in myths

Pity we know so little about this. But it's a conflict that seems to have carried into the Greco-Roman myths, if Titanomachy is anything to go. It doesn't help that after this war, Jupiter seems to have risen to power. Just like Zeus and his siblings rising as the 'new gods' after ending Kronos' reign.Sadelyrate (siniath) 12:31, January 18, 2019 (UTC)

Except Saturn/Kronos was still around until the start of the human rebellion. So while the event does seem to be inspired by many cultures and their myths involving the fall of primordial gods, Ubisoft has gone with a slightly different take on it all regarding who the major players were.

Change of ruling party doesn't mean the former dies: Kronos didn't die in Titanomachy, and the Isu are known to live longer than humans (one reason for humanity observing them as 'divine'). Saturn also seemed to be relatively old + he is the father of Juno.Sadelyrate (siniath) 13:41, January 18, 2019 (UTC)

I agree with the basic premise that Ubisoft was drawing from the Titanomachy and the like when conceiving the War of Unification even though I find it unlikely the event would be retained in collective human memory given the timescale and the fact that we don’t know when during Isu civilization it happened and if humans had been modified to be sapient yet. But what I was mainly getting at was the Greek myths get a lot wrong about Isu history such as Juno being born after Hephaestus or her marriage to the underworld deity.
