While I can appreciate what they're trying to do with this video, and I support the idea of stomping out extremist ideologies, I have several issues with the way this video presents the problem, both in that I disagree with several aspects of it and several of the solutions presented in the video are just....well they're bad solutions.
First and foremost, I find it disingenuous to assert that randomly being assigned to wear either the white or black hat in a multiplayer match makes you "embody" that character. I am no more a Nazi playing a match of BFV than I am an Emperor when I play a match of Civilization. People (for the most part) can tell games from reality and I find the idea that a person playing as an unnamed German soldier in a multiplayer match will adopt Nazi idealism to be tenuous at best.
The video hand-waves (quite condescendingly I might add) that not all German Soldier's were Nazi's and further asserts that unless a box comes up and informs you that you were pressed into service against your will, you're a propagator of the Third Reich and subscribe to their ideology. Does that mean when I play as an American solider in a modern game I am a supporter of their long history of Manifest Destiny, or that I'm okay with drone-strikes against unnamed civilians? If I play a British Soldier in WW2, does that mean I am a supporter the slaughter of people in India?
While I agree that historical accuracy often runs counter to artistic liberties, I don't think that allowing a player to use an STG-44 in a multiplayer match set in a conflict that took place in 1942 is on par with completely removing the opposing force for that battle from the equation. A game can still be "historical" without being a 1/1 simulation of what warfare is actually like.
Furthermore, their ways of "fixing" this problem range from asinine to downright idiotic. Did they seriously suggest that in a situation where people are forced to consciously choose which faction to fight for people who chose the less popular faction (i.e. the bad faction) should be subjected to artificially extended matchmaking times?
I love Extra-Credits, I love Extra-History even more so, but this is a seriously busted ass take.
