Neo-nazis want people to think that games which depict violence against nazis are creating real-life antifa thugs.

[QUOTE=Conscript;52834173]Thanks for derailing and making it personal

What are you even trying to say? As far as I can tell it's nothing as usual, just some dressed up snark. You're just making shit up now.

I feel the same about you, saying little. You'd simply PM 'I don't like you' or 'this hurts my attention span' if you weren't fishing for ratings with one liners in every thread you follow me into.

Why don't you just put me on your ignore list?[/QUOTE]

You said this aloud in a forum. If this was real life, I'd say much the same thing.

I read what you said and walked away from it with little substance. You're ironman17 but with more terminology.

I hope we get to see some more environments. Maybe a Nazified Giza with the Sphinx given Hitler’s visage, or Tokyo where the Germans try desperately to cement Hitler as the new emperor.

And more moon stuff that was such a fun segment

This so much. About two thirds of TNC take place in generic nazi base environments. I wish you could see more occupied cities such as Roswell, or Germania and London in TNO.

[The_J_Hat]

I doubt we'll see much of a Nazi occupied Egypt or anything like that. They still haven't conquered all of Africa or the Middle East iirc.

Now I feel sad we never got a Red Alert version of Renegade.

Though I have every faith EA would have fucked it up and the world is probably a better place without it.

You are right, seems like the origin of all this were articles about [URL="https://www.theverge.com/2017/6/12/15780596/wolfenstein-2-the-new-colossus-alt-right-nazi-outrage"]Youtube[/URL] and [URL="https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/mbj9xv/the-alt-right-thinks-wolfenstein-the-new-colossus-is-racist-to-white-people"]4chan[/URL] comments.

Why are we giving any importance to these things?

Given America's political climate, it's hard to tell if they're just trolls being trolls or legit neo-nazis. I can't blame anyone falling for it if it is just bait.

Haven’t played TNC but in TNO, London was super underused. Granted the Monitor was sick

[QUOTE=Hammer7;52833821]I also have a feeling of missing someones point but apparently like WWII german stuff like uniforms or weapons makes you a Nazi sympathizer.[/QUOTE]
I don't want to belabor this so I'll make it simple:

Nazi uniforms/aesthetic - pretty badass
Nazis - fuck nazis
German sympathy - defensible
Nazi sympathy - indefensible, no questions asked

It's really not that hard.

Just talking about like WW2 and Nazi's and Germany and shit;

I've never felt bad for the Nazi's but I do feel bad for the German people in WW2, the way they were manipulated and butchered by a tyrannical state is devastating; a huge percentage of the Jews killed in the Holocaust were Germans (with some even being WW1 veterans). And outside of the holocaust a whole generation of German youth were brainwashed and sent overseas to die for the Nazi's cause, around 5.3 million of them. and the Civilian casualties due to the war and the aftermath is guessed to be ranging from 500, 000 - 2, 000, 000.

I think one of the greatest crimes of the many the Nazi's committed is what they did to their own people. It was truly abhorrent.

[editline]30/10/2017[/editline]

With all that being said Wolfenstein TNO and the TNC are dardy games, and even when it comes to the narrative side of things at-least in TNO (I haven't played TNC yet) they definitely show hints of humanising elements of the Germans in the letters you find from German soldiers. So yeah great games overall and Nazi cunts should fuck off.

this is my 2nd favorite post in facepunch history right behind "that little girl should've known not to get shot"

[dark soul]

What a click baity video. They don't even interview anyone thats actually pissed about the game and just give 3 random tweets as an example. It looks like the interviewer went out to push a narrative and couldn't find anything, so the best he could do was some random tweets on the internet that could be just people trolling.

Btw you guys should pick up the game, because its fucking awesome.

This drama almost makes me not want to buy it.

Is it more of the same from the first two? Cause I loved the first two.

No I just feel that’s all the discussion is about the themes and not the game itself. How does it run? How long is the gameplay?

If you loved the first two, you'll like this one, although it's not quite as good as TNO. The difficulty is almost overbearing at times (the regular hard mode feels more difficult than TNO's Uber) and the story has a few weak spots, but overall it's a blast.

Feelings matter more than facts, large swaths of people have more money and logistical padding than sense, common or otherwise.

Or the blatant politicization of games by people that don't make them.

Took me 12 hours to beat, cutscenes are about 2-3 hours of that time.

I'm running it on High (preset, not customized) at 1080p on 970 getting a constant 60FPS.

That method of linking hurts my soul.

Besides the fact that it's obvious bullshit, do these people not realize that it's easy to copy the nazi's style without wearing the swastika?
