Finished Old Blood last night, couple of good lines in here that have been mentioned before (Rudi's Dog) but I legit laughed when BJ gets the normal shotgun.

For being a floating pair of arms BJ gets a lot of good physical humor. Screwing up Hamlet or quietly unlocking his shackles while Helga deals with a monster.

Also that cyberdemon was deffo not afraid of the ol' Doom Slayer. Just busts out the door to his cell, booting your rear end across the floor, immediately starts firing at you. But god drat was that a beautifully done boss intro. E: https://youtu.be/zf9Khk2oZIo Like it ain't a Doom game without a cyberdemon but they held that fucker off for so long and then in rapid succession you get the lore bit about "oh we found out their tissue is ok with being wired up" and WHAM this big bastard in your way.

My favorite Youtube comments by a Nazis was one saying that he was going to play the game because he wanted to see all of the technological advances that would have happened if the Nazis had won when he clearly hadn't played TNO since he'd have known that all of the Nazis advances were the product of reverse engineered Jüdische Physik.

Scherloch posted:Also, that one guy on some forum who claimed the nazi killing in Wolf3D was incidental, because they just wanted to make a game where you escape from a prison, and randomly decided on nazis as the enemy. Yeah, I'm sure kicking down the door to Hitler's lair and straight-up pureeing him was entirely coincidental. He was, after all, well-known for personally guarding his prisoners. Escaping prison is only the first act, even. They could have done anything they wanted for the other two, but guess what, they decided to fill them with Nazis (including Hitler) too. Almost like they're one of the few human factions in history that no one feels guilt gunning down by the thousands. Because they're goddamn Nazis.

To be honest, I've probably already gotten my money's worth for this game with all the nazi apologists and alt-righters' meltdowns before the game is even out.

Was just going to suggest that - especially if you're really that torn up about killing/mutilating communists. Also, go grab any of the Operation: Flashpoint games if you want to kill communists with a sense of tactical flare. It's made by Czech's who delight in killing their communist oppressors.

Where were these people when Freedom Fighters came and quietly went into night of the PS2 era? Oh right, it isn't blatantly racist enough. How about World in Conflict? Oh you don't like the idea of the USA losing a war effort and nuking itself in desperation? Well poo poo, that gets rid of Homefront too. What was that game where some dude that likely fabricated his special forces career sneaks into North Korea in the 1980s and says a bunch of mother fuckers and other swears as he one man destroys NK? Oh wait "communists" means minorities and lefties. Well there's always Hatred, cupcake. You remember that great game that sold because of how offensive it was? Such a great success!

The USSR steamrolled the Germans after Germany hosed up their push into Russia, and could have singlehandedly forced the Nazis back to Berlin through attrition alone. Yeah the other Allies advancing from the west forced the Nazis into a two-front war that tightened the noose faster, but the Nazis had a serious problem once Russia started forcing them back. Edit -- I mean unless the Nazis had deployed their UFOs carrying jet pack cyborgs with plasma guns, of course

USSR just used the tactic of let morons go into their expansive territory and then raise everything to the ground, it probably would have taken a little longer once the Germans stopped fighting in their area and the Russians were coming towards them, but yeah, it was a foregone conclusion the Nazis would have lost. It could have taken maybe even into the 1950 depending on how well Germany and the Nazi leadership could have weathered even more than 4 years of war, but if they were fighting Germany or even the Axis alone it would have taken a little while longer to bleed the Reich out.

Because agreeing with people you are opposed to is now a mortal sin so when you come across a group you would both normally not like but you can't risk looking like you're in agreement with other people you hate the bad people aren't so bad any more. Then internet groupthink takes things from there.

Xenomrph posted:In what context? The USSR steamrolled the Germans after Germany hosed up their push into Russia, and could have singlehandedly forced the Nazis back to Berlin through attrition alone. I think that's what he meant. Even if America never joined the war, Nazi Germany wouldn't have survived. Their "blitzkrieg" only worked because they suddenly had SMGs and armored vehicles and got to use them on basically peasant militias using single shot rifles from preWW1. As soon as they ran into an enemy that could match their military might with it's own inventions, mixed with it's own war economy the Germans basically had no chance of maintaining a military state. I've seen more then a few stories about how most German tech at the time wasn't actually top of the line/"good", it was just the best when it came out because it came out first. There was that goon in the last Wolfenstein thread? ( or a CoH thread, god I don't remember ) that put up a huge bit about how tank design changed dramatically during WW2 to shaped/curved fronts to mess with shells, and the Germans were still using the horrible box design by the end of the war. Add in a crazed demagogue that believed his people to be superior and would have never backed down against the Soviets and you have a melting pot of failure. The idea of the superstrong German soldier using superpowerful German engineered weapons and vehicles that we barely beat with HEROISM and SACRIFICE came from the US/UK propagandizing after the war.

Rogue Warrior, by Richard Marcinko. He didn't fabricate much of anything about his career... until it was over, he'd done a stint in prison, and he made a fair bit of money writing what's essentially fanfiction about himself. The Rogue Warrior novels are compelling in much the same way as looping .gifs of major disasters.
