Six Days in Fallujah Is Complicated and Painful For Those Connected to the Real Events - Those with connections to the Second Battle of Fallujah discuss the Middle East in media and mistrust of the US military, and ask who the game will actually ask players to empathize with.

For the two weeks before the battle flyers were airdropped explaining the fight was coming and the civilians fled the area while insurgents flooded in.

The Iraqis in Flallujah were combatants who came there to fight.

If they really wanted to go the "city full of civilians" route, they should have adapted stories from Ramadi.

'feels bad for shooting people in a game'

Man these people must have major issues with Grand Theft Auto.

I just hope the NPC die more realistically in VI

Spec Ops the Line ruined the modern shooter genre because now it's nothing but breadtube tier communists complaining about the games. "Modern Warfare is evil for putting the US in a good light" or at this game "is bad for not being anti-war globohomo propaganda".

I love the last part because somewhere Kojima is going "What the fuck am I, chopped liver?" like, his games were always about anti-war stuff, but apparently, that flew over breadtubers.

Is the game any good? Looks kinda shit.

 

[The Great Chandler]

What's up with the war crimes sperging as if they're suddenly experts on war and that they think American soldiers shot civilians for absolutely no reason?

 

[Jew-ish]

They want the story to be told from the perspective of Iraqi civilians instead of the U.S. military troops, but are too lazy to make their own project so they have to bitch about Six Days in Fallujah.

The most COD MW prequel/reboot did something similar to this to great effect
