Some leaders (Hitler at the top of course) were far more brutal than others in waging war and caused great suffering for their own people and others.This is not a bad game. WWII, like all major wars, was brutal on all sides. We know of (but can’t fathom unless you’re Japanese) the horrible deaths and suffering caused by dropping 2 atomic bombs on civilian cities. We Americans tend to overlook the firebombing of German population centers.

It’s hard for anyone to appreciate the sacrifice and brutality of WWII aside from the awful awful tragedy of the Holocaust. I don’t agree with what they say about the game: “…e get to honor and respect that global sacrifice, to honor the men and women who fought for freedom on all fronts, on a global scale,” said Condrey.” Making a commercial game published by Activision doesn’t qualify as honoring and respecting WWII.

We like to tell a story within a story, and this is no different.”īoth Condrey and Schofield underscored the fact that Call of Duty: WWII is about a squad’s remarkable journey of personal growth and heroism across Europe in World War II, and is a story about common men and women doing uncommon things to preserve freedom. “The story Call of Duty: WWII follows a global and diverse cast, but for me it honors my father Ronald “Red” Daniels and his squad, and not just what they went through from a global perspective, but what they went through personally.
