going to assume anyone setting a game in ww2 at this point is doing it purely to beat up le heckin fascists

I've been building 3000 feet deep hellevators (vertical mineshafts that lead from the surface directly to Hell) with hoiks (glitched platforms that zip you across at 250% max speed) in Terraria. Finding out that I misclicked and put a platform 2 feet lower than it should be at the 450 feet level, thus making the entire hoik non-functional after like 30 minutes of slowly and painstakingly putting those **** platforms all along the 3000 feet of the hellevator shaft is ******* brutal.

Thanks, but half the fun is building stuff by hand. I'll just put a podcast on in the background and fix my mess up the old fashioned way.

To be honest, while I don't think that WW2 is a bad or boring topic, media made around it these days is now getting kinda stale; always the exact same talking points on repeat over and over and over again.

So if people eventually gets bored of WW2 games then I think that would be a good thing, since that would open ideas for stuff like the first Great War or even other more interesting time periods like the Early Modern Period of 16th to 18th century Europe when mounted soldiers in armor were using hand firearms.

I just want a game set in ww2 where i can play as the good guys.

There are no "good guys" in WW2, on either side. That's the biggest redpill when it comes to WW2. Even without the holohoax, 1930s/40s Germany was still an aggressive and Godless regime founded on a cult of personality. We can't even say definitively if things would have been better if they won, just different.

Look, I don’t worship Hitler but if you actually believe this you are ********.

Battlefield 5 had a short campaign where you could play a German tank commander in Aachen during the last days.

My impression is that we're already way past the popularity peak of WW2 games, even the WW1 setting had its time in the spotlight around the 2018 centenary.
In the end games are downstream of other media like cinema and television, so a setting like the 17th century will just be too foreign to the average player's taste (except for Eastern Europeans maybe).

Hard to tell a cool patriotic story when America lost bad and fell to communism on the homefront at the same time. It’s like trying to make a game about britain fighting the ira and losing miserably while their country imploded.

Don't see why not, the original goal of it can be portrayed as a noble if misguided attempt to stop the spread of communism.
Almost like there might be a reason gamedevs wouldn't be interested in this.

(it's the same reason I refuse to play WW2 games)

You don’t get it at all. “Liberalism” aka capitalism and communism are the same thing. Their opposition is a fake psyop, an extension of the political “left” and “right” in america/world politics. These two fake paths worked together to consume the whole world while pretending to be in opposition (but controlled by the zionists, masons, etc).

Vietnam was supposed to happen exactly as it did. A failed misguided “war” spurned on by the cia to traumatize the majority of young people and usher in the hippe/commie antichrist future of america.

Yes, communism is evil. But it is an offshoot of liberalism. There is not a single “communist” country that ever existed before liberalism. “Liberalism” is literal satanic belief made law/ideology. “Do as thou wilt” promoted by zionist usurer puppet rulers and freemasons. All feudal countries were forcibly ended/destroyed by the masons/****. Including germany, italy, serbia, russia, china, japan, and countless others.

yes, sadly.
but it's quite obvious why gamedevs have no interest in making a vietnam game

It could be for less insidious reasons, such as the Vietnam war not being as popular in the pop culture, and not as mythical in the sense that WW2 is. This idea of an "objective good" faction in the Allies vs the "objective evil" faction in the Axis. Of course that idea is due to Hollywood programming, but nonetheless it's what most people still think these days. The popular conception of the Vietnam war however, is that America was white and xenophobic and just wanted to slaughter innocent jungle browns. That stigma will always be attached to any game set in 'Nam.

Crysis had you running around killing ***** with your nanomachine augmented hands. Grabbing some ********** by the throat and chucking him into his comrades was pretty fun.

Easier to just put a shaft with slime blocks at the bottom and a **** or chain on one side, then mod the game so the hoist allows you to accelerate to a higher top speed.

No, this isn't some tiny indie game. It's published by snoy, It has reviews in *ahem* ""major"" news outlets like e.g., Newsweek. It has been in development for 5 years by an entire studio.

I already have the Shellphone and can teleport to pretty much anywhere on the map instantaneously. I'm just doing the pre-Hardmode prep of partitioning the world into quadrants and making little side projects, like building a 16000 foot long underground road made of Obsidian with magmaducts lighting the way a la the Deep Roads.
It's literally about the journey and not the destination at this point.
