You think thats bad? In cod ww2 you dont have nazi uniforms and insignia when playing mp. It was ok 15 years ago, but not anymore smh
ReallyNotKEVIN
Well still going strong then ? I remember Wolfenstein 3D on my old 286 pc with it's massive 45MB hard drive
Namotatop
I, as a german was also shook when I saw they replaced hitler, and I also was reminded of merkel by his replacement. Can confirm.

Just finished the game, Nazi imagery everywhere and this is what the German govt has issues with?
Rasdwatrium
Can't remember having Hitler in Sniper Elite with all facial features being a problem here in Germany..

as a Kraut: if you think these laws are "crazy" - you're right, because they are the result of 44 years of occupation by the US/Brits/France

Titties are productive members of society.

They made Hitler Mike Huckabee?

Or did they make Mike Huckabee Hitler?

"everyone i don't like is a Nazi ESPECIALLY if they say they're NOT a Nazi and only Nazis would disagree so are you a NAZI" - some ppl here
AFuckingKangaroo
This comments section is a fucking train wreck.
maybe you're just a NAZI
Botplug
Do Germans still love Hitler?
If I look at the last election, around 12,6% do.

The AfD is far from anything Nazi-related. They are way more left than American Liberals. Yes, Liberals, not Republicans. US Republicans ...
... are Satanistis Right-Wing KKK Nazis from an average German's point of view. Just cuz German Government is far-left doesn't make AFD Nazi
Bringing up 2 year old comments just to defend those nazi fucks. Shows your intentions. And stop trying to glorify the AfD. Won't work.
Damn Antifa scum. Try to burn MY car in the US, TX, and see where it gets you! I'll fucking shoot you! Europeans are way too weak.

Who here remembers when Germany censored Half-Life by replacing the HECU grunts with robots?
HitlersArtCritic
Not just Half Life, everything. Team Fortress makes everyone robots by giving all their parts springs.
Corrodias
Well, I assume Valve did the censoring. Germany's role would be simply to prohibit the sale of the non-censored version.
SpoonLoeffel
German here. Valve did the censoring, so it wouldnt get put on the index, which would prohibit advertising for it, could still buy the uncut
And to make it clear. Sales can be banned, but that was never the case for HL and changing the voices wouldnt have changed that if it were
jackalope2196
Are "Hitler Mustaches" outlawed in Germany?
kekkres
no but they removed nazis entirly and replaced them with "the regime" so it doesnt make sense for it to be lead by hitler
So if a guy had a Hitler mustache, Hitler hairstyle, even kinda looked like Hitler , he could be a bank teller and now one would mention it?
people would defenatly look at him funny and with suspicion but its not illegal unless he goes about actualy impersinating him
Thank you for the information. All I know about Germany, I learned from watching Hogan's Heroes.

I remember my first Wolfenstein game on the PC. There was a big warning when it started for German players/owners.

Thank god you can get anything on the internet, I'm not going to buy censored shit.

Well ya, it's illegal to have nazi merch there. Tons of Germans played it anyways. Probably the first taste of illegal software. So good.
Gaucib
It's kinda dumb really. The game is literally about killing them. Not glorifying them
They probably played it, because owning Wolfenstein isn't illegal, only selling or displaying it in public.
CISMaleScumLord
No, that would be Barbarian: The ultimate warrior.

if stuff isnt outright promoting nazi ideology or denying the holocaust or some BS its not illegal, just not allowed for minors...most of >

Isn't it covered under using it as art? I thought you could depict nazis in art and history.
MrDeadsr
Nope. Germans are weird about this
BayazTheBenevolent
Yeah but games are still not considered an artform in Germany.
gaenaralhonk
Games are considered toys, not art. It's stupidly backwards, but conservatives tend to be that way.
Wolf3D was not considered art back then - it was a game and as others commented, it had a warning. This was the beginning of FPS with gore.
movethebongos
German stance on nazism seem harsh, but then again, they also haven’t elected an orange nazi as their leader.
whyihavetoeven
No, they elected worse. Noone here understands how the fuck they elected that stupid bitch again after all she did. (Also trump is not nazi)
MeatballManWithAddedSauce
What's so hard to understand? The polls were pretty telling as to who was going to win. Obviously a lot of people don't share your opinion
Ask anyone who lives anywhere near germany and they will say exactly what I did. She is gonna continue selling the country as she did before
And as I said, the polls and her victory shows that you are wrong. Perhaps you should look for opinions outside your current circle too see
You wanna hit DT, you gotta do it legitimately. He isn't a Nazi. Stop calling him a Nazi. You do his enemies a disservice by doing so.
Ok. I’ll use fascist, bc he fits within the definition.
No. He's not a fascist either. Look up the definition of the word, that does not describe him. Seriously, stop mischaracterizing him.
mordaedil
He's racist, he defends white supremacy and many members of his staff were Nazi's. If he isn't one in name, he isn't far off from one.
