#Not sure what the truth is on sacrifice relative to the ballgame but the importance of the ballgame is really slept on by a lot of fiction

Been playing Pyre and I'm loving it. Part of the concept feels inherently Mesoamerican while done in a way that's not themed around Mesoamerican cultures. But sacred ballgames where the winner gets an exalted fate that still divides them from you is hard for me to not associate with the Aztecs.

I'm putting Pyre in with Radiant Historia for my 'games that aren't about Aztec mythology that do a far better job representing it than the average piece of mythology media' list.
