[quote name='PyroGamer']Wow. Because every single soldier in the wehrmacht -- scratch that -- the entire population of Germany, was all for the holocaust. Not a single one questioned it, and every single german in the entire country's population volunteered to lead the jews into the ovens.
In fact, you know that Operation T4 that Hitler kept secret to avoid massive public outcry? -- well it's all a lie. Hitler was very open about everything he did, and all of Germany knowingly supported every action the SS participated in.
Yeah, you can't do a respectful story based videogame from the german perspective.
German perspective of WWII is totally not a goldmine for character based introspectives on blind patriotism, subverting one's morals, the destruction of war, and character studies that have the potential to be the greatest ever created.
Everything about a German's perspective on WWII is both amazingly underused and overflowing with potential. Racial and political tension, poverty and patriotism, personal morals and the firm hand of the authorities.
Imagine what mental and emotional destruction would have to take place for a german soldier. Propoganda and brainwashing, watching your commanding officer execute a family of Jews? Being asked to do it yourself? Watching as everyone around you beat the pink triangles to the edge of their life? And then leading women and children into gas chambers? Can you imagine the emotional struggle that a simple german soldier would face? Do you realize how important it is to remember those who did not agree with what was going on, but what little they could do about it.
The only problem is this sort of story would be best handled (at least in its early versions) by an extremely talented screenwriter, director, and team of actors.

wow, just wow. I'm not even going to go into this one because it simply isn't worth it. Sometimes it's worth to shut the spigot on your mouth/posts and spot the bullshit from coming out.
Like I said earlier, let's all reenact the Holocaust. Onward you gypsy. Onward you political dissident and you gay...person to the ovens. Let me go incinerate you you Jew. Let's invade Poland and search and murder the Jews or reenact Krystal Nacht. Better yet, while we retreat let's make sure that not a single Jew makes it alive and lock and barricade full families in their houses and have
ing chemical/smoke grenades dropped to have all of them die. Let's find the women and children and round them up in front of a firing squad that we play in the game. Shit, they can even set up a management system like in the Maddens or any sports game where you can set up the rationing for the death camps. You get an ounce today and tomorrow I think I'll starve you. Today I think I'll perform ghastly experiments on you; dipping you in nitrogen, testing your body to see how much cold it can withstand, infecting you with all kinds of illnesses, etc.
ING BRILLIANT!
