I saw the trailer on the Xbox showcase today and holy shit is it blatant unfiltered propaganda. They have a whole extraction game mode that takes place on the DMZ and if I understand it correctly it is just Tarkov but you fulfill the Amerikkkan power fantasy of killing DPRK citizens, since doing a genocide on them was not enough.

The empire really doesn't care anymore and will just pump out the most blatant propaganda possible and no one will bat an eye.

The first game was full of anti-soviet propaganda (human wave stuff, though it's probably because of enemy at the gates being popular around then), CoD 2 was surprisingly decent on that front (the potato thing is just funny tbh), World at War was good, even though they tried to paint shooting nazi prisoners as bad. All the others are just pure ass when it comes to the imperialist propaganda though.

Never played the first 2 games, I started on World at War but at the time I didn't knew english at all. The only ones I played were WaW, MW1 (Remaster), MW2, MW3, Black Ops 2/3/4 and some Warzone. Only by BO3 did I know enough english to actually be able to understand the story, and that one is a stinker that is just a cheap copy of the movie Source Code. Even then, on Black Ops 2 I had the feeling that it could maybe be bullshit too, tho I was too impressed by the game to care that much at the time.
