My problem is that another thing that I kind of liked back in the day, first-person shooters in a historical setting, has been ruined.
Historical setting =! historical accuracy. If you like historically accurate shooters, play those shooters and not the ones that are not.
I’ve played them many times. I wanted one that takes advantage of modern technology but it looks like that won’t happen because stupid people have ruined it just like they’ve ruined everything else. World at War was, to my knowledge, the last game to actually take the setting seriously. The campaign in that one was beautifully done.
