The new game Atomic Heart is based on if the USSR won the Cold War

Now picture a game where the Confederacy won the American Civil War

Would people be mad?

Its fine as a an alt-history scenario, as long as you still frame the confederacy as bad guys.

Wolfenstein exists, this isn't very different.

Except the Confederate states would have crashed and burned even with winning.

I dont think it would necessarily be seen as completely horrible if it was like a (modern) Wolfenstein style game where you fight against the Confederacy. There would definitely be a lot of people asking why make this? though I dont think the idea would be a complete no-go.

I'd just like a Dynasty Warriors style game set during the Civil War. Go ahead and have alternate endings but just keep it there.

dunno about a game, but there is a movie called The Confederate States of America about what modern times might be like in that scenario. It has a pretty funny twist at the end

Guns in warriors games is bullshit. Bow characters outside of the older bow mechanic are bullshit too.

I can excuse the fictional media with Nazis winning (Wolfenstein) but I draw the line at Confederate victory

Is this sarcasm or are you unironically stating that Confederates are worse than Nazis?

I don't know. Didn't think that far. But probably would involve a 2nd civil war, inside the CSA. Maybe a slave uprising
