Do you think the same way I do? In PC games, I personally don't care who is getting killed by whom since it's only a PC game and I am extremely fascinated by mastering the technical and navigational challenges as well as setting up traps for "enemy" escorts.
Or does anybody have a completely different approach towards this?
Well - I'm just curious!
Take care!

I play because i like submarines thats it really. If SH3 was a Japanese campaign i would think no different in playing it. And also the thrill of playing the bad guys makes the game more interesting. For instance how many First person shooters do you come across where you can get to be the germans, for example Call of Duty 1 & 2 you played as allies only, Vietcong 2 you play as US but you got to play as the Vietcong in a short campaign which was a better campaign out of the two. Theirs not many games where you can be a german soldier and see his side of the story. I think developers dont want to go down that road yet they should.
I would like to see a First Person Shooter where you played as the "Waffen SS Hitlers Black Guard" Yet they made the gameplay character slowly change thoughout the game, although these black guards were like robots that obeyed all orders no matter how gruesome they might be, your character you played through out the game slowly realised what he had got himself into. He had emotions - questioning his role as a SS, etc., He might be ordered to take out a whole polish village, with emotions running high you got choices to either shoot them all or let em go etc., And the ending was the cliff hanger, you died refusing a order. And it left you feeling worn out once finsihed. The game really hit your emotions. I would like to see that in a game. I mean if they can bring out games where you play as a gang member (GTA San Adreas) and run over ppl, beat ppl up including females, shoot civilians etc., then why not a game such as mentioned?
Anyways being able to play as the germans and in uboats is blardy brilliant!
