I did. And they made the NKVD guy in charge of the Soviet protagonist an evil murderous asshole. Plus to make the Soviet protagonist sympathetic he's not really cut out for combat duty. Or life in Stalinist Russia in general. And you can tell fairly quickly that all of Relic's research for CoH2 was watching Enemy at the gates. And any Cold war era Soviet troupe they could think of.

Besides if anything in CoH heroes is pro-Nazi it's the second expansion for the first game. Where the single player campaign protagonist is a Waffen-SS officer around Arnhem, Wolfgang Berger. And they are portrayed very sympathetically.

Because we all know Stalin and the NKVD were paragons of virtue throughout their history. It's a story, getting upset over it is silly. Relax comrades and understand that Russian leadership during WW2 was not a super nice happy go lucky bunch of hippies but a pretty brutal party incredibly equivalent to the Nazi party.

The problem is that the game is intentionally lying. Not just misrepresenting the defensive war of the Soviet citizens, as some sort of an aggressive action, but they clearly lie.

Example:
A loading screen is a letter of a "common" soldier who states how unjust and bloody the war is and how every soldier didn't want to fight for such a horrible cause.
The problem is that the author was a Soviet general and he was talking about WWI. Goebbels would be proud.

Me, I just think the contest is stupid, and CA needs to pull their heads out in the design of it such that it's possible for the TW side to win. As it is, this is just a yearly self-own by CA, something they already regularly do in their game design decisions, so not sure why they feel the need to pile on themselves.

Honestly, I think most of that is intentional.

I got it in Attila and Rome II, since she was uninterested in history, but being given she used to be a Warhammer Youtuber, her lack of passion is a bit strange.

Why?
