Brushing off bullet fire and grenade blasts and killing hundreds if not thousands of soldiers a la Rambo = SO IMMERSIVE, I FEEL LIKE IM IN WW2!

Someone with brown skin shows up in multiplayer = IMMERSION GONE, IM NO LONGER IN WW2!

FYI, blacks fought in WW2.

Eh, I think its okay to sacrifice realism for the sake of gameplay here and there, but it just seems pointless to do it to things that are purely aesthetic. You can make the gameplay really unrealistic and actiony and still have it based on true events, but changing aesthetic stuff is when it starts to stray from the actual events its trying to base itself on. I don't mind if they wanna make a game that throws reality out the window and they start doing whatever they want, but putting little visual things that aren't historically accurate in the mix while still trying to portray a real event is just this weird place that's in between the two that isn't sure what it wants to be imo.

I just think its stupid to remove the swastikas and make it so players can play as black Nazis of all things. I can even understand why they'd remove swastikas due to potential bans from some countries, but black Nazis? I just don't see the point. Black Americans sure, but Nazis? I might be wrong because I'm not a history buff, but I can't imagine there were black Nazi soldiers.

That said, it is multiplayer so its not a big deal.
