I saw the trailer on the Xbox showcase today and holy shit is it blatant unfiltered propaganda. They have a whole extraction game mode that takes place on the DMZ and if I understand it correctly it is just Tarkov but you fulfill the Amerikkkan power fantasy of killing DPRK citizens, since doing a genocide on them was not enough.
The empire really doesn’t care anymore and will just pump out the most blatant propaganda possible and no one will bat an eye.
Oh interesting. I admit I haven’t really paid attention for like 4 years. They actually pivoted?
Yeah. It’s sort of because a lot of these games got infected by the Hero-Shooter virus. Most of these games don’t let you play as some ground soldier anymore - it’s always some dweeb called McKai or Zeb who’s cracking jokes and being epic on the battlefield, and who has 25 different themed skins. Casual military franchises now dont really stick to the simulation aspects of the old ones, or pretend to be adult games. They’re out and out for kids.
