It is hilarious watching the wars and the faces the leaders of the respective armies make depending on the situation.

They don't show what is actually happening on the front lines. They don't show what the soldiers go through during, and after their time is up. The emotional strain on a soldier, lasts for the rest of their life. Some are so damaged they spend the rest of their life doped up. Many end up homeless because they can no longer hold down a job. That's my main reason for absolutely despising those kind of games. True reality is not pretty like in the movies.

It can be funny to watch that. killamch89 1

skyfire Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 Never noticed that part in age of mythology or even in the age of empires. As it's do or die sort of situation. I noticed that in the rise of nation though.
Reality vs Adventure Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 The worse part of war is becoming a POW. I don't know of any battles or war in a game that emphasizes torture. So we can throw images around and blow things up. Swing swords or have battle simulations. But it's all impersonal. Best portrayal of war would be the torture involved. You can have 100 tanks rolling and shooting. But it will never say more than lining people up and hacking at them. Whatever war befalls in the near future, you can guarantee Nazis will be involved. Don't get taken alive!!!
