Wolfenstein The New Order: Nice! Killing knot-zees like it's 1992!!

Wolfenstein II The New Collosus: what is this woke anti American shit/why can't we play as the real "good" guys

Gee. Somewhere between the release of these two games public opinion changed. The first came out in 2014, btw. The second's ad campaign had "Make America Nazi Free Again" as a slogan, something that id thought we'd all agree. Nazis were in that safe group of "enemies we can slaughter without guilt" alongside aliens, zombies and robots.

I got banned from reddit for saying: Wolfenstein The New Order is one of if not the best game of all time, the only good nazi is a dead nazi. GET HYPED!

I mean, I'm happy they had an implosion, but it should have been because of the nazi sympathy, not because of their api.

Getting banned for being a Basterd is a badge of honor my good person.

BJ Blazkowicz wants his scalps.

Well one cost “the right people” more money than they were willing to give and one didn’t. It’s almost like money doesn’t matter until it matters to the gawd, it sounds crazy to say it, it’s so dystopian, shadow governments’ corporate overlords. Lives otoh… shudder

New Colossus came out in 2017. We all know what happened that made being a fascist piece of shit mainstream.

Gee, that wouldn't happen to be a poke at a particular presidential campaign?

It can only piss off Nazi sympathizers tbh. I mean If you believed that America was going downhill and wanted to make it "great again" surely making it Nazi Free would be part of that goal right?

Unless... 🤔

when it comes to woke its not what you see. But what you not see.
