Been on a fun little kick playing the Sniper Elite series and the Wolfenstein series and want some suggestions for what can replace it once I run out of campaign missions to do in those games.

While I would love to replay the campaign missions of COD, I ain't paying like $30-60 for a two decade plus old game from EA. While I do prefer shooting nazi nazis, I don't mind suggestions that have you shooting fascists in general.

Not interested in debating politics, just wanna shoot nazis.

Kind of a problem how nazis in WW2 games are quite different from the wannabe-fascists and fascists of today. You mostly kill drafted soldiers in those games, and if you think about it too much, those are probably the people who least deserve their gruesome deaths.

Makes it not work for me as a safety valve.

    Fallout 2, Fallout 3, and Fallout NV the Nazis may have a different coat of paint but a fascist is a fascist regardless of what face they wear. Weirdly doesn't apply to Fallout 1 since I think Unity would fall under weird form of Authoritarian Transhuman Collectivism, fuck I've started talking theory. In summary kill Enclave and Blòt the Romaboo larpers!

    Is it bad that the Enclave is my second favorite faction besides the NCR?

    The enclave as a concept of just fascinating. That is another one of my alt-hist (and occasionally irl too) fascinations, is old-government remnants and what do they do? FEDRA in The Last of Us is another one, technically the last remnant of the old USA order, but functionally has degenerated into just another authoritarian faction in the apocalypse. Arguably the Brotherhood of Steel counts too, remnant of the old world US military.

    As for IRL, Taiwan is a remnant of the old chinese government before the communists took the mainland, and Belarus actually has 3 governments right now -- the one currently in power , functionally a puppet to Putin/Russia, the transitional government formed abroad in 2022 hoping to replace the puppet government once given the chance, and hosted in Ottawa for over 100 YEARS is the original exiled government of Belarus from the Communist revolution in the 1910s.

  • Also I think there's still some fun and explore with them, namely with a good/ morally dubious variant. In every game we've seen them in it's quite obvious that the base level personnel have no clue what the Enclave is actually doing, so have fun with that make a faction of these base level guys who survived while the higher ups died make it the battle of Adams AFB from fallout 3. It'd be fun to see them being minutemen like or something because they legit believe in the ideals of Americans without any of the bad because they weren't poisoned enough by propaganda and exposure to the wasteland helped them chill out.

    But yeah they are also a really fun exploration of a remnant government still kicking around. Some other ones for you to look up would be Mount Athos and the empire of Trebizond, both were Eastern Roman remnants with Mount Athos technically still existing.

    I believe in the Metro (Metro /series you at some point fight/kill some Nazis. They aren't the main enemy but there is a faction of them for you to kill.

    I would recommend just brutally murdering your way through the rainbow of right wing nutjobs in MANHUNT. It does have guns, but ammo is sparse, it's not a shooter, at first.

    That is an absolutely terrible vantage point. Totally exposed to fire. If you're gonna fight Nazis, don't give them an easy shot.

    i am not sure there are any politics to debate , killing nazis is good.

    you could try the old.medal of honor or, for a good story but also old- brothers in arms.

    Hard agree, but there are oftentimes apologists who are summoned from these posts or the people who make the argument that idolizing violence against anyone is abhorrent (nazis have families too!! etc etc), which to an extent I can agree with. However I have two history degrees which has given me insight on many topics, one being that non-violent resistance to true tyranny is a borderline myth. I subscribe to the paradox of tolerance .

    Just finished this:

    https://www.gog.com/en/game/saboteur

    It's straight up killing Nazis for about 30 hours of fun SP campaign. You play as a french resistance fighter in paris during WWII. Race cars, make wildly inappropriate innuendos, kill Nazi, rinse and repeat. Has an interesting wanted level mechanic and a stealth system with disguises. Had a few weird bugs but nothing game breaking. 8.5 / 10.

    I’d definitely recommend Mouse, P.I. . They don’t wear swastikas on their sleeve, but for how silly the game is they do take steps to show just how organized the Big Mouse Party is about fascism and oppressing minorities. Some of the first villains of the game are an army of cops that happily kidnaps shrews - “lesser” mice - into human trafficking. And you get to melt them with an acid gun.

    The Saboteur is about an Irishmen killing nazi's in France. Older game but was overall fun. Its like a PS3 era free-roam game.

    You didn't say "shoot Nazis (or fascists)" in shooter games specifically, so I'm going to interpret your question broadly.

    In BioShock Infinite (story-heavy shooter game with some RPG elements), the main villain is some turbo-racist Nazi who runs his own "utopia." The prior releases in the series have you facing objectivist villains, which I guess is Nazi-adjacent.

    In the Jagged Alliance series (a turn-based strategy game), you control a small band of mercenaries fighting a totalitarian dictator. JA2 is a classic, though almost 30 years old by now. JA3 (released in 2023) is a more modern version and a worthy successor.

    Hearts of Iron IV is a strategy game where you can literally fight the Nazis, though much of its dubious player base does the opposite. You won't literally do the shooting though.

    In Skyrim (which I'm guessing you've played already), there is a civil war between two factions that are basically lawful evil Nazis and chaotic evil Nazis. Though Skyrim is thin on story, at least you can decide to kill (almost) everyone.

    One of the factions in Fallout: New Vegas (one of the best first-person shooter RPG's of all time) consists of slave-driving Nazis (as much inspired by ancient Romans as the actual Nazis) called "Caesar's Legion." You can just go to their camp and kill everyone, including "Caesar."

    Farcry 6 is neat, but I like Farcry 5 for this! Curbstomp fundamentalist religious cultists with redneck accents, reclaim the beauty of rural America! Take a break to fish in the majestic waterways of Montana, then go carpet bomb yall'qaeda camps while listening to some chill country/folk! Take a second to admire the breathtaking mountain scenery before hitting the detonator on a mountain of explosives and demolish a hideous fascist monument while parachuting away to safety! This game has ALL the catharsis for you 🤠

    I can explode 4 to 6 nazi testicles with one shot in the Sniper Elite games. That alone is proof that video games are art.

    India Jones and the Great Circle - I don't have the hardware to play it, but I have read great things (including a pretty good story if you like the old movies.).

    Yes, you get to punch and kill lots of Nazis too.

    I spent so much time playing MoH: Frontline as a kid. Achievements didn't exist but it gave you stats at the end of each mission and I replayed the levels over and over until I killed every nazi with only groin shots.
