I already said what I had to earlier, but also think of this for those who say it's bad. Yes, people are allowed an opinion, but you should look at both sides as well.
People of Jewish decent weren't the only people killed in WWII, and certainly not the only ones who died undecent deaths no human should experience. Yes, the Holocaust was a horrible point in history. That shouldn't mean people should ignore it, if anything people should be better educated on such events considering the general ignorance the world has against each other today. I would much rather get a chance to see through the eyes of jewish person, than starring down the barrel of a rifle shooting Nazi after Nazi. If anything, that is just as worse and sending a crude message as well. Not every Nazi was evil, which is a common misception granted the ignorance I mentioned. Many were drafted by force, or killed if they chose otherwise. With that said, who's better? I'm getting off-topic here, half the people won't even read this, nor will they care.
Just trying to point out the fact that not everything that has been horrible in history, should be ignored, especially when skipping certain facts.

I believe people who disagree with this game aren't ignoring it, it's just the fact that it's the holocaust. I don't know how else to put it. If anything, this game was intended for children (or am I wrong?) thus resulting in the developers having to tone it down to be less gruesome and disturbing which basically defeats the purpose of any educational value at all. If you're going to educate someone in an event as grave as the holocaust, you can't really tone it down because people are given the wrong image. You need to give the straight facts, and really the holocaust shouldn't be taught to someone younger than 10 or so. I mean, kids that age can know about it and what happened, but should not learn the specifics.
Whatever, the fact is, you don't make a game out of something like the Holocaust.
I thought the title of the thread was a cruel joke at first, because I had no idea there were plans for a game like this. And I' mnot trying to be disrespectful in any way when I say this, but to anyone who thinks this game isn't a bad idea, just think if they were to make a game about 9/11 or something of the sort. I just think certain subjects shouldn't be touched by video game developers.
(And yeah, go ahead and argue against my 9/11 comment because I know someone will but I'm just trying to find a similar example, when in reality the holocaust was far worse than anything in world history.)
An hour of play doesn't really give you much time to judge any game.Flame_Blade88
Yeah, look at GTA IV, one of the best games ever and the first few hours are slow and boring. Doesn't mean the entire game is that way. Most games (even a lot of the great ones) start off slow with all that introductory garbage.
