Fallout Season 1 was about as good as anyone could have hoped for. Wolfenstein could be an excellent critique on modern conservatives, as long as they keep the core of the game intact (shooting Nazis in the fucking face).

From the article:

Exact plot details are being kept under wraps, but the (incredible) official logline of the series simply states, “The story of killing Nazis is evergreen.”

The OG Castle Wolfenstein (1981) was one of the very first games I owned.

It's never ever not been cool to kill nazis, so here's hoping it gets the Fallout treatment!

Seeing as how Bezos sucks Trump’s baby-dick, I’m sure the show will clarify how we’ve all been mistaken and the Nazis are actually misunderstood patriots.

Bezos is a tool but The Boys on Amazon has been non stop anti fascist.

That's probably what they are depending on, like the boys, antifacists will view it as satire/critique, and fascists will look in awe of homelander/nazis.

Remember reading several articles about far right people completely missing the point of the boys

They always miss the point... I know someone whose favorite play is Wicked... They won't watch the movie because Elphaba is black...

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 4 days ago

Perhaps they just don't have the media literacy necessary to see that Homelander is actually a bad guy.

I wish they'd finish the game series properly.
