I love historical accuracy in my WW2 video games and a WW2 game without the swastika is lame.

Acknowledging the past is the only way to prevent repeating it.

I’m shocked by the ignorance some people show in this thread. As if the reason for the banning of Nazi symbolics was a way to hide from the past. The opposite is the case.

Good. They finally reconized Video games as an art form then. I wonder if 'Through the Darkest Of Times' winning funding by the medienboard Brandenburg Berlin, despite being unable to be shown in competition due to it's subject matter, hepled push this along. It#s very much the up and coming Indie darling right now.

Edit: For the record, you are allowed to show Nazi symbolizm in german media as long as the content serves to educate, is a work of art and is non-gloryfying basically. Video games have straddled the line of the definition of artwork for a long time and weren't properly reconized as an artform before.

Woooooooow, great for all the german players, that was really unexpected, I bet the Wolfenstein devs are partying right now !

I don't think I'll be able to play as Germany in Hearts of Iron with the swatstikas everywhere lol, could kind of forget who you were playing as before that.

Finally, so happy to hear this (even though it's way too late but I guess better now than never).

Good. They shouldn't be censoring their own history.

*Sigh*

I don't think it gets more ignorant than this. 

No, germany never censored their own history. Do some research before posting such nonsense.

Also indirectly declaring games as art. Deutschland has it all figured out.
