I HAVE TO PLAY AS A BLACK MAN REVERSE RACISM I DEMAND TO PLAY AS A WHITE MAN MY GREAT GREAT GREAT GRANDDADDY DIDN'T FIFE FOR THE CONFEDERACY SO I'D HAVE TO BE A BLACK MAN!
I noticed a few gaming "journalists" reacting to this title in the most pussy, regressive, milquetoast way by suggesting that this is offensive because "real people died in WW1 and it effected real lives." As if real war hasn't effected people in the Mideast and all the CoD/ArmA wankfest bullshit where you mow-down anyone with brown skin with robot laser arms or whatever isn't insensitive.
What some of them are reacting to is the total glee of the developers at how 'WW1 is such a great setting because it lets you kill people different ways'.
It's like the devs have become a living Onion gag about clueless brogrammers that jack off to murder simulators.
