Hmmm...
Great question mate!
For me, playing the game (or sim, in this case) as a German is...well, the honour, amongst other things.
As I am from Croatia, and in that time, Germany and Croatia were on the same side; and my ancestors spoke german language and even I have some part of german blood, so I am proud to play as a german...
I don't want to sound like some bittered man that weeps because "we" lost the war, but I am merely enthusiatic for playing as such...
I was always fascinated by a lot of things from that period of time with germany and its army, as well as bittered for some other things that should not have been made by same.
But just as such, I also played a lot of games on the allied side too, like RTCWolfenstein.
I can understand if someone has some feelings and don't want to play the game if it touches painful period of time in history, regarding to them; I believe not many jewish people can easily play a game under swastika's banner.
But, this is virtual world and is mostly fun and pleasure to play some things we couldn't have done in those days for real.
