    It relates to this thread in the same way as US relates to games not made in US like Future Soldier.

    You seem to gifted with the ability to read the mind of Potatojohn. Just through this power you have learned that he his a pinko commie and Stalin worshiper. I'm amazed at your abilities as it's obvious he can't just have his avatar to induce butthurt in some.

    Wow so that game is going to justify police stateism and we play as tools of the American rulers (bankers & corporations)

    They'll also make the True Patriots completely evil so people don't protest like actual men and instead do stupid hippy shit like occupy wallstreet.

    I always feel bad wiping out the Xvart village in Baldur's Gate. They don't deserve that! :(

    But they all have delicious red circles under them so they must be DESTROYED :mad:

    According to the DnD alignment system those Xvarts were all chaotic evil. Yes, alignment is full of derp.

    If there was AAA-budget game where you shoot Americans as Russian (Chinese would do too), i would buy it for double-price.

    Hammer & Sickle is played from a Russian perspective, and I think you kill some kwans. That's it. I'm spent. I;m done.

    They kept a bear in illegal captivity, it's only my duty as a ranger to charm it and take nature's revenge on their unnatural soiling of one of nature's brothers instincts by attempting to worship him.
