Remember when Call of Duty spread disinformation blaming Russia for a real-life US war crime?^[https://www.newsweek.com/call-duty-modern-warfare-highway-death-russia-gulf-war-1468207]

That means Valve is financially enabling a military-affiliated project

Disgusting! I'm just gonna play more call of duty instead.

Further, as spotted by Game Informer, the Ukrainian Centre for Countering Disinformation has already had its eye on Squad 22: ZOV, describing it as "a key element in brainwashing the population, reflecting the Russian government's version of events regarding the invasion of Ukraine and glorifying military service".

Do you think they'd have a statement from whatever the Russian equivalent government org would be if there was a similar Ukrainian game?

When will Hamas release a paramotor flight sim

This is why it's getting harder for me to see a point in talking to these people; the fact that they're unable to see the double standard makes it feel pointless. Unless the media tells them to see it that way, they won't. You and I can point it out to them, but unless they read an article about it and they feel like it's coming from someone more intelligent than them, they won't hear a word of it; never mind that they have a brain of their own they can use to think with; they've decided to delegate the thinking function to people they consider smarter; the reasoning, the history, the context, etc., none of this matters, the only thing that matters is hearing it from someone they consider smart.

There was a literal U.S. army propaganda FPS game series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America%27s_Army

Us army game depicts american war crime as russian one. Literally uses evil muslimstan as their setting for the billionth time: I sleep

Russia does the same: HOW DARE YOU!

However, if the opposite happened and there was a game where you played as the Noble Azov defenders, I'm sure they'd be all honky-dory with it

Can't be any worse than any COD game or whatever games ukraine is producing about the war

We played America's Army in my high school while the war in Iraq was in full swing

How distasteful. I definitely didn't grow up playing NovaLogic's Delta Force, CoD, Battlefield, the Ghost Recon where you liberate Moscow, etc etc

As if there weren't a bajillion military games set in the Middle East during the "War on Terror"

I think most of those were set in various Madeupistans or had some kind of corny Tom Clancy bullshit plots with moustache-twirling villains rather than being this ripped from the headlines

Bruh Call of Duty was funded by the US propaganda machine at the hight of the war on the middle east.

Talking about russian propaganda games, i feel the need to plug Syrian Warfare and Terminator: Dark Fate Defiance (both made by the same developers, even though the terminator one refuses to say so on the steam page for some reason) they're not like other RTS games out there that i know. They share similarities with say, stuff like Company of Heroes or Men of War, but they're still a very different system that is both simplified in unit management (no more micro-managing inventories ) but will also kick your teeth in very hard for any mistake, they're hard and they're very good, folks!
