Nazis are like the most ideal bad guys you can have. At no point is the player going to second guess their violenc or wonder if they are in the wrong because killing Nazis is never wrong. You use them when you need something smarter than a zombie but feel just as good to do violence on.

If any of that offends you, then you need to get therapy right now because you should absolutely not be sympathizing with video game Nazis and you definitely shouldn't see it as a personal attack.

I didnt say I see it as a personal attack and I dont sympathize with them at all. I said I dont find enjoyment participating in that time period. Videogames are supposed to be about enjoyment. I study that time period, I read diary entries and watch documentaries, and I thank god every day I was not alive to live in it. So why the hell would I want to experience it in the same medium that I use to watch a plumber grow to the size of a house by eating a mushroom?

When I watch Schindlers List or Saving Private Ryan, Im not watching those movies with the same mindset as say Star Wars or Lord Of the Rings. But when I play games, its the same mindset, whether Im playing Madden, Mario, Halo, or Mass Effect. I dont even hate the digital representation of the Dallas Cowboys as much as I do in real life. But that Nazi symbol, I hate it as much as I can hate anything in my entire life. Not a feeling I want to engage in when gaming.
