"A lot among us are quite ignorant. Ignorant concerning the devastating events of both World War I and World War II. Yes, we all know it was horrible and a lot of people lost their lives for their beloved country but do we really grasp the meaning of war? Valiant Hearts: The Great War taught me to look past my superficial ideas about the topic and gave me a deeper insight in the meaning of war. This is a game that will really get you if you let go of reality and just go with the flow of the story. Playing as either one of the characters will make you wish they make it out okay as you really start to care for them. Beautiful graphics, stirring music combined with four very strong storylines, what do you want more?"
Some of the game titles have only a good setting and partially repeat the real events of the past. At the same time, some projects are a rethinking of military events, political debates, and trade coalitions. Here are games that have a historical storyline.
That should be "Historical". To think that some peeps walk away with this interface as bing their history lesson. No wonder we have some real sad sacks with shattered realities.
I know what you mean. There are people who actually think 0 black men fought in WWII. The history, of course, is 1.2 million just from the USA. Then there are the people who claimed women didn't fight in WWII. They ignore one of the greatest snipers of all time, Lyudmila "Lady Death" Pavlichenko or the WWII female fighter pilots.
It's like all they learned was the US/UK version of WWII. Then they get triggered because they find out that women and black men fought in the war. But then they are suddenly silent when Ubisoft changed the very real shieldmaiden, Eivor Varinsdottir, into a man.
It's sad that they learned such a shallow, superficial version of "history."
