Cultural diversity in games

[Kortney]

I'd love to play a big budget title from the perspective of a German platoon during World War 2. Make it very character based (like Brother's in Arms) and bring across the message that even the "bad guys" were soldiers too, fighting for one another.

I think it would be really well received and a nice change of pace. However, some people would probably say it is offensive because you are shooting American/British/(Insert nationality here) troops. The funny thing is, German people don't act that way when a new Call of Duty game is released. Well, at least, most of them don't.

Out of the last 20 games I've played, only 2 had me as an American soldier.

Your point is lost to me.

EDIT: After a moments thought, it's way more than 20.

Swap American with White male, is the number still at 2?

Yep. I don't own many games where I am a 'white male' soldier defending the U.S.A. or any country.

I could list you the games I'm playing if you want.

Doesn't have to be exclusively an American. I'd say with most games your either a white or Japanese male. Also look at the most popular games out right now if you had them I doubt you could still say that.
