  I need to hear more about these translation errors he just throws out there in a single line.

  They changed it but you could always just have them as definitely-not-Nazis.

  You’re misunderstanding the argument, but that’s just the nature of brief forum exchanges.

  Think of it as a continuous depiction of the Nazis as hyper-competent or full of geniuses unintentionally plays into the supremacy narrative, even when Joe Everyman is gunning them down. I don’t agree that Wolfenstein is pro-Nazi but it is a factor in public perception that creators need to consider when repeated in a hundred different games or movies.

  Even just repeating things like “At least Mussolini made the trains run on time” plays into it, especially when it’s a lie, just like the Wunderwaffe programs or the Nazi “miraculous economic recovery” which was just making people work longer hours and deficit spending.

  Well, that or America not electing FDR in 1936.

  I think it actually reveals a pretty fundamental aspect of the neoliberal viewpoint, that “providing jobs,” no matter exploitative they are, or how corrupt the industry is, is a fundamental good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The US Navy Is Going All In on Starlink⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m going to laugh when the 2034 Chinese-American War sees the US Navy get wiped out on Day 1 to a drone swarm following hacked Starlink connections. Bitches just don’t learn.

  I liked them just fine, but he didn’t do anything to develop them but lie about what they’d be.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Hacker Who Hunts Video Game Speedrunning Cheaters⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A fraud over a video game record.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One of the most influential Japanese visual novels ever made gets a PC Steam remaster this week⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ever notice how gamers don’t complain about gender swapping when King Arthur is a big titted blonde?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Final Fantasy Tactics remaster reportedly “real and happening”, giving hope for one of the series’ finest to finally come to PC⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “Pick a god and pray” is still one of the rawest quotes in gaming history.
