| dyremose said: To be honest most game companies dont focus enough on non american markets. Speaking as a european the only two big franchises that caters to us is fifa and assasins creed. Most other games is just 'merica fuck yeah.. Even when games are about us it still has have the american angle. Im thinking specifically on the 3 latest ww2 shooters. Sniper elite v3 where you are an american volunteer sniper during the north africa campaign between the UK and italy/germany. The US werent even in the war back then. Wolfebstein where you are once again an american saving the poles as a resistance fighter after waking up and found that 'america surrendered. The war is over'. What about the soviet union, UK and nationalist china? Who cares about them right?. The last one and most ridiculous in my opinion is enemy front. You are a resistance fighter in poland during the blitzkrieg in the early years of the war as operation barbarossa was ongoing. Turns out you are a war correspondent. From the US. Enough. The closest thing we get to european only games is in the UK and that is so obviously just to not completely alienate its US audience. We are a vast market and FIFA proves you dont need US sales in order to have a successfull product. |
Guess where most of the big publishers and devs reside? US right? Who do you think they gonna pander to more?
For your information, US was involved in the WW2 and was present in North Africa.
There are a lot of games with Japanese influence out there, why don't you say something about that? Your inferiority complex towards America got your judgement clouded, son.
