So it's time to get annoyed again. That Fallujah game has released
gameplay.
I sympathize with the guy's pain, but the portrayal of him as a victim we should empathize with, the jingoistic slant of the video is just exhaustingly bullshit. The thing that gets me the most is how they focus on soldiers as a way to avoid questioning anything about any of it because of the misery they experienced. The game doesn't ask about the wider decision-making that led these people there, or seems to acknowledge how regular-looking people can commit war crimes. So much for the human angle and realism.
Then the last part starts, somehow trying to implicitly blame the
civilians for being in that theater. I'll admit, keeping food down is getting hard at this point. The whole video is deeply manipulative.
From a game design and technical standpoint, I like their approach and see the merit in it. I just find it employed in a very distasteful game.
