    I simultaneously admire the game for having the balls to do the camp level with giant smokestacks belching smoke from incinerated Nazi victims looming overhead while also feeling like with a few aesthetic changes you could’ve passed it off ass a Combine labour camp from Half-Life

    Also I looked up what happens if you save Wyatt instead of Fergus, and the African-American resistance member that shows up in his timeline tells Blaskowicz “back home, YOU guys were the Nazis” after talking about his experiences in 1940s America. So yes, there definitely is some discussion of racism even in TNO. If this game had come out a few years later, gamers would have gone nuclear over that scene
