Ok that came out wrong......TeeBs said:Stop genocide with more genocide... BRILLIANT!AssassinJoe said:We like the idea of killing people who want to commit genocide....
Why would we get tired of it?
2 words: HELL NO!!!!Blindswordmaster said:We Americans have been killing Nazis since before our involvement in World War 2 even started, and we haven't quit since. We kill them in books, movies, and of course video games. We Americans have been programmed to hate and want to kill Nazis for over 60 years, I'm just starting to wonder if we'll ever tire of it?
As an American I may be biased, but: arguable imperialistic tendencies =/= genocide of six Million Jews and Poles.Pirate Kitty said:It's the only time in history the U.C was waging a war on somebody as big of a villain as themselves.
They won't let us forget what 'heroes' they are any time soon.
Pretty much this.badgersprite said:One day our society will probably get so pathetically politically correct that there will actually be an Anti-Nazi Defamation League protesting the depiction of its political ideology in games or movies. ><'
Still, I don't even really think of it as killing Nazis. Maybe because I don't see any difference between the average (key word being average) soldier on any side of a conflict. They're all just people being sent to fight by the ruling class of their homeland, regardless of whether they share the same political ideals. [/overly political comment]
Seriously, though, I think the only time the term 'Nazi' entered my mind while playing CoD5 was in the Nazi Zombie mode, and even then I was more focused on the zombie part. They could be replaced with any generic enemy combatant and the experience would be the same for me. I guess we're all just desensitised to Nazis, the same way we are to robots and zombies and 'terrorists'. Game developers go with them because they require the least thought on our part, by which I mean we're more likely to instantly accept them as the enemy without questioning their motives, right?
