There has at be at least one
Tonight We Riot
It’s a very short arcade game, but the devs are comrades and should be supported.
I played it a tiny bit but my little rioter buddies got killed and it made me sad
Need to git gud at organizing so you can keep your comrades safe
Better to die for a better future than live for the profits of the rich, if you are given just those two choices (of course living for a better future is always preferred where possible, which it usually is).
Red Faction Guerilla, though I guess you’re mostly killing Neolibs being imperialist.
Wolfenstein of course. I actually like the 2000s reboot where you killed occult Nazis.
The Saboteur as others have said is great. Irish bombmaker killing Nazis. It’s impossible to describe how fun that game is. You run around with a beautiful British spy in fast 1940s cars and your hideout is literally the Moulin Rouge. As you “liberate” districts they turn coloured. It ain’t accurate but you can justify it as turning parts of Paris into “no-go” zones for the Nazis.
Ambition: A minuet in power, is a semi visual novel that lets you play as a young woman adrift in Paris intrigue in the 1790s, and lets you take down the king and hook up with Saint-Just as a romance option.
Just cause lets you take down the fash, though it’s mostly cold war fash.
There’s an old Hex game I recall that takes place in the Russian Civil War, in case you want to kill black hundreds instead of standard Nazis.
Hammer & Sickle is a relatively obscure Russian turn-based tactics game, sort of a quasi-sequel to Silent Storm, which is somewhat better known.
It’s 1949, you’re a Soviet agent infiltrating into the Allied Occupation Zone and stumbling onto a neo-fascist plot to do a bunch of false-flag attacks and start WW3. It’s pretty cool, but kind of janky and obtuse, and needs a bunch of mods to even run on a modern operating system.
There’s an Easter egg in the Silent Storm games: the trashcans look like they have American flags in them.
Cod 2 soviet campaign
Not cod 1 or cod 5
spoiler
It was very satisfying to roundhouse kick that nazi mfer
Funny how DE does a great job of showing how RPGs can go beyond combat for roleplaying, but at the same time the few instances where you can do violence are pretty satisfying.
DE lategame
Wish there was some way I could absolutely fuck up the mercs in the tribunal
Outside
I tried outside once but the sun burnt me so I got scared and went home
Well of course, you’re an Owl. Try night time.
GMs are a bitch and a half though
Skill issue
Partisans 1941. It’s a stealth real time tactical game that takes place behind German lines in the USSR during Operation Barbarossa. You play as the Soviets, obviously.
There’s resource management and RPG elements, story is so far so good. I stopped playing because there’s a new path of exile season lol.
Its so good. My game is fucked tho, my screen flickers and has the worst graphical glitches i’ve ever seen if I open the menu during a mission. I am glad I beat the game before this started
Victoria 3 lets you do communist revolutions, and if you’re doing world conquering, you’ll undoubtedly fight a bunch of literal fascist countries.
Though I mean, the Paradox game doing the most literal playing as Soviets and killing Nazis would be Hearts of Iron.
Partisans 1941, real time tactics game about german invasion of the ussr.
Wolfenstein is the classic nazi killing game but you play as an Amerikkkan
also BJ’s kind of a lib 😔😔
Yeah but the Communist priest guy takes him to task in 2 which is fun.
At least he grasps the essential truth of violence against Nazis so better than most lib gaming protagonists
he still lectures american commies for not “enlisting in the us military and fighting with them” during ww2 and instead choosing to oppose them
TERFENSTEIN 3D
i completed that game a while back. unfortunately the game is very flawed imo:
- you must beat the game in one seating as the dev didn’t bother to implement a save/load feature.
then again it took me 30 minutes to an hour to beat it so justified? idk - 99.9% of the health pickups found in the game heal you by only a measly 1 HP. there’s only like, 2 health pickups i’ve found throughout the game that heals you more than that.
- later levels rely greatly on just fucking zerg rushing the player. you’ll be forced to huddle in rooms and lure enemies so you don’t end up dying.
- the enemies (terfs obv) speak some other language than english. disappointing, since i figured the birthplace of the english language wholly embraced the terf ideology, thus making a perfect setting.
- the ending felt disappointing imo. you exit the concentration camp and… it just ends. nothing like the “YEAH!” scene from wolf3d. hell, no post-game story dialogue either. it just goes back to the main menu.
- you must beat the game in one seating as the dev didn’t bother to implement a save/load feature.
Are we including Tabletop games? Because The Hammer and The Stake is an rpg about fighting literal capitalist vampires in 1920s Hungary
Thank you for this, it’s going straight into my to-run list
You need to give The Saboteur a play. One of the forgotten games that personally I thought was great but sold like crap.
I loved my pirated copy of this when it came out
Hearts of Iron 4
I love when I’m able to turn the tide of the war by just being commie czechoslovakia and sitting in my fortress killing millions of germans and allowing the soviets to take berlin in 41 easy.
If you’re going for pure volume, this is the one
Steel Division 2 is an RTS on a large scale level with combined arms mechanics and some deckbuilding, just only play Soviet divisions and enjoy the Nazi fragging.
