2025 the year where you will probably get arrested when you talk about killing Nazis.

Now wouldn't it be very funny if someone played those A LOT and get a little disconnected from reality and started killing Nazis for real? Just saying.

Ok now where are the mods to add elon musk's face to one of them?

Anybody make a shoot the evil CEO game yet? I would also accept that.

In Cyberpunk 2077 the major antagonists are the corporations, although the game is not as punk as the name would suggest as you spend spend about the same amount of time working for them, or even for the police or government.

I would like a game where we pursue Yarvin's Cabal, Agent 47 style.

Do I seem to recall one of the creators of Wolfenstein once went to an interview and asked something to the effect of "What happened to America? Since when killing Nazis became 'problematic'?". Several years ago, maybe over a decade. The US was given a warning and they didn't listen.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 hours ago

Once upon a time, before the Nazi killing was reserved for online lobbies, Call of Duty had games take place in World War 2.

They come out swinging, huh

Nice

[–] vonxylofon 4 points 8 hours ago

Very true, but 2009 Wolfenstein isn't underrated. It's exactly correctly-rated.

You can tell how fucked things are when this post might upset some “normal” people

25 Nazis seething so far

[–] Freefall 21 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

All media should swing anti-nazi. More movies about killing Nazis, more games about it, etc.

[–] Zahille7 4 points 1 hour ago

I for one would be totally okay if all media that comes out of America in the next 4 years is all about standing up against fascism.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 10 hours ago

And specifically to make sure the reality of Nazis are shown. Like in the literature you find in the newer Wolfenstein games, the stuff is shines a light on how stupid the Nazi 'scientific' mentality really was.

[–] pyre 1 points 6 hours ago

unfortunately those take too long to produce. they will probably be long banned by the time they finish.

Saboteur is an incredible fun. Feel like replaying it now

[–] Zahille7 1 points 1 hour ago

And it's only $5 on steam! Just bought it to play for the first time.

I wouldn't mind a couple of blazkowiczes right now

There is a conversion of Wolfenstein 3D for the ZDOOM. Best way to play the game if you want mouselook and other nice things.

Took me a little while to figure out where to put the .ipk3 file (easiest is ~/.config/gzdoom) but otherwise easy enough to get going using the flatpak version of GZDoom. Installing the regular gamefiles + spear of destiny (from my GOG version) was also pretty easy, but I wonder where one can get Return to Danger and Ultimate Challenge 🤔

Either way, good shout, plays excellently, although seems like hitting enemies is harder in this version than the original, at least when they're far away.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

Here, try this. The Internet Archive is very useful, as is abandonware sites and CDRomance for your vintage gaming needs.

An unmentioned kinda out-of-the-box thing is Garry's mod (gmod). Pretty sure there are downloadable models and/or skins for nazis, and you have a ton of tools for fucking them up in the most spectacular ways possible. There are mods for gibbing, better blood and bulletholes and stuff like that. Make Rube Goldberg machines ending in splattered nazis, strap them to rockets, build mediaeval torture devices etc. The fucking up nazi possibilities are endless!

[–] Zahille7 2 points 1 hour ago

A couple years ago when all the Floyd and anti-police protests were happening, I had an incredible urge to do something violent.

So I booted up some GMod, spawned a bunch of cop NPCs and started mowing them down with impunity. It honestly felt really fucking good too.

The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi

[–] [email protected] 46 points 1 day ago

There is PvP in Path of Exile 2 and at least one known Nazi player. Go ahead and kill him when his Boosting Ground worker is off the clock.

Hahaha, love this!

[–] slazer2au 172 points 1 day ago (3 children)

The Sniper Elite games are a gift to this world because they understand that the only thing more satisfying than shooting a Nazi in the balls is watching the bullet tear through their tiny tesitcles in glorious slow motion x-ray vision.

Too dam right.

[–] Majorllama 44 points 1 day ago (2 children)

They even gave Hitler one testicle. It may or may not be accurate depending on what you read, but it's still hilarious to shoot Hitler in the nuts and when the X-ray kicks in he's only got one nut to begin with.

There’s a lot of things you can do with a hatchet… and a Nazi -BJ Blaskowitz
