I've no problem with a bionic woman in this game. How about getting Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck as a preorder bonus. Though with it being Disney characters they would have to be on the Nazi side to keep it historically accurate.

And I miss them everyday." He wiped his tears away and finished by saying... "I'm sorry, I didnt see any women with claws wearing face paint....but I saw a lot of dead men. Is this what people think happened? Because it isnt." I patted him on the head and simply told him... "You're uneducated."?
I know, I'm just making fun of them for caring about rewriting history in a video game. They seem to not care about turning war and peoples deaths in a game but adding a women to a videogame riles them up.
It fills me with joy you see it this way. Honestly i had lost hope in gaming and gamers years ago but more and more they are stickingup for them selves , we as customers deserve more
Anyone thought it might be because it's summer time?, lots of people don't buy or play video games during the summer, under all the SJW bullsh1t is an awesome game, I will be buying it once it's half price
My grandma was in the war. She worked for the Signal Corps, and worked phones and typed in an office here at home. Meanwhile my grandfathers were flying over Okinawa and Italy. Hmmm, guess I'm uneducated.
EA: "you're uneducated." EA: "accept it or don't buy the game." customers: "actually the reason we're not buying your game is we're educated. ironic, isn't it?"
Acesahn saying something is “challenged” is actually a micro aggression and it racist. Don’t be a bigot. You should really learn to float above the grass as I do.
It's the SJW agenda that will stop me buying games, period. It is appearing in so many franchises. Terminator, Ocean's, Ghostbusters etc. An example of a good female lead was the Tomb Raider reboot. I DO NOT want this SJW crap in my games or movies. Yet 2 games which did remarkably well.... Doom 2016 and God of War anyone? Strange that. Vote with your wallet. Stop pandering to these fools and concentrate on your CUSTOMERS. Rant over. And Mack, you have gone up enormously in my estimations.
Eternal what do you get for defending EA buddy? If you make a fortune or at least a profit defending EA then please refer me. I'll send my CV. If you get fk all defending EA but just want to be smug then what you're doing is pointless. Because EA is the worst thing there is. They treat customers (including you and I) with such contempt. They'll go so far as to say "you're uneducated", "accept it or fuck off", "consumers don't know what they want".... Etcetera. So unless you make a living or -- at least a dime -- defending EA then what you're doing has no point and value
The annoying thing is, most of this stuff would've been completely fine in a modern battlefield. But because ea needs to stuff their pockets with money from microtransactions, they put all sorts of steampunk bullshit customization in to the game because 90% of WW2 era gear was plain wool shirts and trousers. In a modern battlefield, there would've been loads of realistic, believable stuff to sell to the players and women would be way more believable.
I see your point, but they could have EASILY made the customization work with period correct items. There was an immense variety of uniforms, headwear, footwear, and other gear present during WW2 as well. All that was required was some research. Let's face it, the creators of this rotten pile of garbage don't care about historical accuracy or authenticity, they don't even care about making a fun game. The mechanics and menus are ripped straight from Battlefront 2, and the gameplay has devolved to CoD levels of fast-paced MLG cheeky 360 jumping through windows throwing hatchets bs that the 12 year olds crave. I wouldn't care about the gameplay, I just simply wouldn't buy it, but there's something morally wrong about trying to sell a politically loaded and revised version of history as an "authentic" experience, and then calling critics "uneducated" for trying to defend the sacrifices of an entire generation. My grandfather whose best years were taken from him as he was sent to the front, then sufferred in a POW camp would be disgusted to see that the brutal conflict he took part in is being used for corporate virtue signalling.
Fifa is awful mate, but I get your point, EA has managed to sit on their own sack with star wars twice and the micro transaction practices in fifa and other titles are no secret anymore, if EA had it their way they would kill of single player games all together, wait that’s already happening. I’m surprised they haven’t tried that with fifa yet, maybe next year.
What kind of 13 year old girl would ask that question seems kinda like an excuse to add there sjw agenda to a main franchise,but a simple well because there really weren't any women on the front lines during world war two,and instead of paying tribute to the actual women that did take part french resistance, Soviet snipers and tank crew,they create this ginger English no scoping cyborg female thing wielding a cricket bat to represent the actual women that fought in ww2 and dare to call it historical accurate,then call the actual demographic that would have bought the game uneducated and tell them if they don't like it don't buy it ,EA made this bed now it's time for them to lie in it because they obviously took a page from the way Disney handled star wars
I don't care if you put a T Rex in a WW2 game, but calling the consumer uneducated is just downright stupid. I'm happy that people are finally talking with their wallets.
I don't know man, I'll probably buy it but I don't want to waste 60 bucks if it's like bf1 boring asf I'm be pissed, Not alot of maps, weapons and stuff, It just felt like a step back from bf4, well it is WW1
@@oRiiGiiNaLGaNGsTeR a WW1 game can be executed quite well if one knows what they're doing. DICE made the mistake of missing plenty of opportunities and for also being politically correct with BF1. Still a good game imo
@Imperial Watch damn Charlie Chaplin and his evil Nazi t Rex regime. It's a good thing the UN had t rexes of their own and together they UN Nazi'd the world
They pissed 85% of us off over these past few years i personally will never buy another EA product again! I run my own company and i have never treated my customer base like EA has time and time again they can go bankrupt for all i care cheers everyone and vote with your wallets :)
I agree the SJW bs needs to be gone from games. There's enough of that crap going around social media already. That said, I'll take that guys advice and not buy the game.
@@IMeanMachine101 Same my dude. If I wanted that stuff at home. I'd fill the bathtub with soymilk, turn on CNN, sit and wait there until my balls fall off
AWWWW.. MY TINY PEE PEE HURTS CAUSE THEY"RE ARE WAMEN IN THE GAME. MY WIDDLE WEINER HURTS SOOO MUCH CAUSE ITS NOT HISTORICALLY ACCURATE!!!!! MY WIDDLE WEEEEEEINER ..... OWWWWWWWWWWW..... MOOOOOMMMMYY, THE BIG BAD EA CALLED ME DUMB AND MY TEENY WEENY HUUUUUURTS!!!
At first I thought it was over the top that people complained about women in the game. For me it was the bionic arm and cricket bat was to over the top. But EA handled it so badly that they've shot themselves in the foot.
1234legend1234 Agreed, I don't mind there being women at all. I think more people were annoyed because of the hatred of these so called SJWs and when EA included women that made them a bunch of "SJWs". But yeah EA handled it badly.
To put things in perspective there were more child soldiers than female soldiers in ww2. And yet both groups still only make up a fraction of the majority.
They seriously believe this is an all gender-inclusive choice when in actuality it's extremely sexist and offensive to women. Like you said Mack, women had such a HUGE part in the war, yeah they were rarely on the field but they were the backbone of everything. From intelligence to manufacturing. Making weapons, tanks, ammo, bombs, etc, etc - that was dangerous work in itself and they contributed so much to the war and gave the brave men who died in the war a fighting chance to get shit done. They were all so brave and seeing EA and DICE telling women that they were nothing unless they're fighting on the frontline with a rifle or a machine gun is so horribly offensive and out of touch. I'm glad people are putting their money where their mouth is.
I do think it's hypocritical that people were demanding women characters in games to be held to certain standards because they are somehow representing real women, even if they are in fictional worlds (which I think is bullshit, I don't think the average game needs to be realistic or representing us at all). If you did not agree you were a woman-hater. And now what they say is: oh well it's fictional so we should misrepresent women in this WW2 game because apparently there are mystery-women who would like that. In fact if you disagree you are a woman-hater. What a backbreaking twist that is. So it seems that it's all about making fictional woman characters look more appropriate, stronger and more capable in their eyes with a complete disregard for reality, fiction, tone, creativity, what people like, or anything else. Like it's ethical. It's not. Because they are not real women. It's like they think that 'misrepresenting' something real in a videogame would confuse people or slowly corrupt their minds even though there are plenty of people who have played for thousands of hours and generally they don't believe that dying means they'll respawn at a checkpoint...
Lots of respect to you mack for telling us about this even during your one off holidays. You've made alot of consistent content, defo deserve the time off, sir.
I had a argument with a SJW about BFV on YT and it(idk if it's he or she) told me that I'm sexist and don't like playing as females... it was litheraly interrupting me playing as a female character in a mmo... Actualy out of 18 of my characters 4 are only male. This has noting to do with females but rather with history and immersion braking features.
I mean just pick something like Starship Troopers as your Battlefield setting. You can have as many men and women as you want, even with robotic arms! And EVERYONE would be fine with it!
@crimson #notmybattlefront2 got shit on because the main story was shite (female imperial was the selling point, she turned traitor within 2 missions, was the best and most trusted the rebels had by mission 4), the actress was good and EA wasted her. That's separate form the MASSIVE pre-order push, the insane loot-boxes, the absurd "you can't have an XXX coloured YYY because it doesn't fit the setting or the simple fact that EA phoned in the game for a second time in as many years. by comparison in battlefront 2 you followed a clone squad through the prequel trilogy, into the set-up of the original trilogy and even witht he limitations the tanks, power ups, heroes and special abilities were all fairly provided.
Crimson Tide People who enjoy WW2 as a setting happens to value a certain amount of historical accuracy. Katanas and women at the front with prosthetic arms is just too far. If your setting is Japan in the year 1185 you don't expect to see many Africans or Europeans. Same thing. It just breaks the experience for many people. Personally I don't care that much since I'm a bit bored with WW2 games by now, but I understand why it puts people off. Star Wars is whole different issue. The movies got bad reception because they were bad movies. If you enjoy them that's perfectly fine, but people have legitimate reasons to dislike those movies. Reasons that have nothing to do with the lead character being a woman.
As a parent, why did Soderlund allow his 13 year old daughter to watch a restricted age trailor? And if she really did watch the trailor and wanted to play the game, why didn't he explain to her that the game is rated M for mature, and as a 13 year old girl it's not appropriate for her? But no, EA marketing didn't think of that.
The first thing I ever thought when seeing the BFV trailer was ''This doesn't look like battlefiled, it looks like Call of Duty''. And thus my interest in the game just disappeared.
Here, Here, Mack!!! Great argument about the important role played in the war, only not on the frontlines. Calling in daughter to shame people, is a craven and low maneuver as well.
Pre orders are down because 1. We as gamers have learned that pre ordering can sometimes be a complete waste (No Mans Sky, Fallout 4 etc) 2. This game is probably going to be the same exact game as BF1 and I don’t see why anyone would buy another WW game straight after BF1 and Cod WW2. A lot of the fans want another BF2/3 type of shooter. BF1 wasn’t bad but I think it could have been a lot better.
My Nan was in the Auxiliary Territorial Service during WW2, Her unit lost a lot of Women Truck Drivers to the Luftwaffe, while her Husband drove the troop carriers to Juno Beach......Never forget them.
Pyrolyze all i know is that they never took off their helmets so why the fuck are they now female without helmets? fml i honestly hate modern society doing this shit
Yes, There were alot of brave woman who fought with the the French resistance against the Germans. However, alot more french woman just slept with the invading germans.
As if they had the choice dumbass. Most of them were protecting their children or family by thinking they could spare them if they were doing so. Maybe 10% did it willingly, it's to say...
@@EstrelliaGaming you're right, it is completely driven by survival instinct, that doesn't change the fact that people like to exaggerate what women did in the wars, instead of just sleeping with/marrying invaders
"As if they had the choice dumbass." - most of them did. They just did natural thing to women, connect with the stronger males (in that time that were victorious German soldiers)
This happens in every invasion from ancient to modern times. Yes, they do have a choice in every invasion. Bind themselves to a single invader or be violated by many of them.

Brilliant as always Mack. Delighted you took a break from your break to post something about this as I've seen a f**k tonne on the internet regarding it and just wasn't bothered looking further into it but a Mack opinion is one I'm happy to listen to and you didn't disappoint. Well said on all fronts sir. And for the record it has been my experience in life so far that those who judge others and throw words around like "Uneducated" are nearly always themselves the ones who are truly uneducated. You know most modern day sports personalities are given media training so they don't get themselves into bad situations, you can always tell the ones who took it seriously and the ones who didn't when you see their interviews. I suggest these big companies start investing in media training for their spokes people. In fact I'd hire Sean Murray from "no mans sky" to train them up because if anyone learned the hard way on how to deal with media it was that guy! (Just a little joke there, "Next" is actually really good, still flawed but a massive improvement). Come to think of it, they should hire you Mack! I'd love to see you walk into a boardroom full of execs and say "no no no, you can't say that ye daft twats." Keep up the great work Mack... after your hols.
hard to say... I didnt see his take on battlefield but if I remember corectly he tryed to rip a new one to andromeda....but then again I might remember wrong
Couldn't have said it better myself. Pretty sure I wrote a comment based around this on one of their videos but think they got rid of it. Typical. Either way, glad you made this video.
It is completely discusting how they add women in the game. They are technically re-writing history for younger individuals (most people who play the game). It is a complete insult to women who did have important roles that wasnt front line, and was insulting to men who actually fighted for their life. This company is a huge scam and a massive discrace to the gaming community. They are a bunch of attention seekers to boost their economy and support irrelevant views for extra sales.
Gosh, I just can't believe it, having watched dozens of videos on this subject, how this video best expresses the issues from every angle. Brilliant. This is the definitive reply to EA.
i don't mind the women's in the game, but i understand ww2 fans don't like it tho, its EA that scares me, i haven't bought a game from EA since bf4, its sad, i loved the battlefield series .
Women helped in the war but not on the battlefield. (People always bring up the french "resistance", but it didnt have a big effect on the war, the french just claimed all the glory in the end.)
I never bought any EA game after BF4 (Call of Battlefield) and I will never will till the end of times. DO NOT buy any game that has EA logo on it. Let them die.
Quite frankly one of the best videos you have posted sir. Never have I agreed on everything you have said,but on this? Damned right. Enjoy the rest of your break mac
The game is going to be crap anyway. Bunch of headless chicken jumping around shooting each other. The good ´ol Battlefield games maps layout and somewhat strategic gameplay are over. The developers forgot how to make good games.
i dont like what ive seen i was told not to buy it and they dont care about history so they lost a long time fan battlefield has really been going downhill for a while now.
EA just don't learn, i hope this sends some message in tandom with their Battlefront debacle, although i doubt it. I haven't bought an EA game since TOR, and my personal boycott still stands. The prices alone are enough to put me off ever wanting to buy the game £54.99 for standed Ed gtfo.
FIRST! Also, pushing disabled Scottish women unrealistically into a WW2 game is just disrespectful to the actual women who trained vigorously for the SOE and the Red Army. Moreover, a 13-year-old wanting to play a WW2 game is just bad parenting. This will trivialise the war into something "fun and kid friendly". War is bloody and horrific, and trivialising the war is just disrespectful and a young child playing a WW2 game will bound to look at the images from the actual war. And a child seeing a mountain of dead bodies in the camps or a soldier with his brains flowing out will scar a child forever. Shit I've known grown men who got PTSD after seeing the aftermath of a JDAM strike on some brown dudes with AKs.
if you think that is disrespectful, i cant wait to hear your opinion on captain america helping america win ww2....can you not take this as another story, it really is about the women isnt it? you just dont like them... because captain america by your definition trivialised the war WAY worse, literally using magic juice to create a super soldier to beat the nazi's.
@Frederick Röders no one's debating it's a game. but this is supposedly ww2, and it looks just like a shitty sw battlefront reskin. we could just as easily tell you to fuck off back to fortnite if realism in games triggers you lol
what about my comment are you trying to grasp?, i was implying that the original comment was dumb for pointing out that a fictional game has fictional elements, like captain america has fictional elements,and that both this game and captain america, have story lines based on ww2, and he/she thinks that because there is a female soldier it disrespects something real women did in ww2, which is just as dumb as me saying captain america disprespects ww2 for being based on it and having dumb shit in it.
Amen brother, as a veteran I feel like EA did a huge disservice to the woman who supported and fought in the war. Your commentary is well researched, consice, and on point. Keep up the excellent work!
I want to thank these SJW's. They made me quit gaming and enjoy board games and card games with friends. We meet up each week IRL playing games and having a laugh.

Loved the video Mack. Very well done on your arguments and level-headed approach to not only expose the absurdity of the situation but that its propagated and fueled by just extreme idiots who simply don't know when to hush up and stop making themselves look like the fools they are.
Angry Joe is such a EA shill...He used to be relevant but he has become a popcorn flick review channel now. Would love to see more level headed guys talk on these issues. Like a replacement for total biscuit. (also pc gaming channel) The thing is a lot of the younger generations prefer communism and socialism over the free market capitalism and see Trump as a bad man when he is what can take down these new world order collectivist types who believe we are all groups not individual people with different dreams and ambitions of our own. If these cultural marxist ever take over the game industry I will pretty much turn to indie games only. Thankfully most japanese game companies have ignored them and didńt cave into thier pressure..yet at least.
Great video Mac - some solid points as always. Not sure including females characters is "game-breaking" (that would be wall-hacks and quick-scoping) but appreciate the sentiment. Each to their own though and keep it up.

Eternal what do you get for defending EA buddy? If you make a fortune or at least a profit defending EA then please refer me. I'll send my CV. If you get fk all defending EA but just want to be smug then what you're doing is pointless. Because EA is the worst thing there is. They treat customers (including you and I) with such contempt. They'll go so far as to say "you're uneducated", "accept it or fuck off", "consumers don't know what they want".... Etcetera. So unless you make a living or -- at least a dime -- defending EA then what you're doing has no point and value
The annoying thing is, most of this stuff would've been completely fine in a modern battlefield. But because ea needs to stuff their pockets with money from microtransactions, they put all sorts of steampunk bullshit customization in to the game because 90% of WW2 era gear was plain wool shirts and trousers.
In a modern battlefield, there would've been loads of realistic, believable stuff to sell to the players and women would be way more believable.
I see your point, but they could have EASILY made the customization work with period correct items. There was an immense variety of uniforms, headwear, footwear, and other gear present during WW2 as well. All that was required was some research. Let's face it, the creators of this rotten pile of garbage don't care about historical accuracy or authenticity, they don't even care about making a fun game. The mechanics and menus are ripped straight from Battlefront 2, and the gameplay has devolved to CoD levels of fast-paced MLG cheeky 360 jumping through windows throwing hatchets bs that the 12 year olds crave. I wouldn't care about the gameplay, I just simply wouldn't buy it, but there's something morally wrong about trying to sell a politically loaded and revised version of history as an "authentic" experience, and then calling critics "uneducated" for trying to defend the sacrifices of an entire generation. My grandfather whose best years were taken from him as he was sent to the front, then sufferred in a POW camp would be disgusted to see that the brutal conflict he took part in is being used for corporate virtue signalling.
i really hope this game flops it will make me sooo happy
Same, it will totally make my day.
Hubert Shitmeyer i dont buy EA games or use services by EA and i never will i dont care how good their next game is lol
Ur happy off a video game failing what a twat
I don't, I look forward to buying and playing the game once it's half price
Fifa is awful mate, but I get your point, EA has managed to sit on their own sack with star wars twice and the micro transaction practices in fifa and other titles are no secret anymore, if EA had it their way they would kill of single player games all together, wait that’s already happening. I’m surprised they haven’t tried that with fifa yet, maybe next year.
What kind of 13 year old girl would ask that question seems kinda like an excuse to add there sjw agenda to a main franchise,but a simple well because there really weren't any women on the front lines during world war two,and instead of paying tribute to the actual women that did take part french resistance, Soviet snipers and tank crew,they create this ginger English no scoping cyborg female thing wielding a cricket bat to represent the actual women that fought in ww2 and dare to call it historical accurate,then call the actual demographic that would have bought the game uneducated and tell them if they don't like it don't buy it ,EA made this bed now it's time for them to lie in it because they obviously took a page from the way Disney handled star wars
EA has made so many anti consumer moves that you'd think this is something we'd all agree on.
Get woke go BROKE. xDD
I don't care if you put a T Rex in a WW2 game, but calling the consumer uneducated is just downright stupid. I'm happy that people are finally talking with their wallets.
I don't know man, I'll probably buy it but I don't want to waste 60 bucks if it's like bf1 boring asf I'm be pissed, Not alot of maps, weapons and stuff, It just felt like a step back from bf4, well it is WW1
@@oRiiGiiNaLGaNGsTeR a WW1 game can be executed quite well if one knows what they're doing. DICE made the mistake of missing plenty of opportunities and for also being politically correct with BF1. Still a good game imo
@Imperial Watch oh sorry, i am too uneducated to think of that
@Imperial Watch damn Charlie Chaplin and his evil Nazi t Rex regime. It's a good thing the UN had t rexes of their own and together they UN Nazi'd the world
Battlefield 6 is rumoured to be set in Vietnam. The main character is a transgender black lesbian called Bob.
I unsubed from Agry Joe because of his stance on this game. Even more respect to you Mac! You are the best!!!!!
While I want to berate you for being subscribed to him in the first place, I'll just assume you are young. You learned
angry joe is a dumbfuck
Why is everyone hating on aj? Just because he didn't cover everything in his vid and over simplified the problems?
That's all it took? One expressed opinion you didn't agree with and you are done?
I unsubed quite some time ago when he was being paid to say nice things about games that were shit.
Mac in this crazy world, you are like a breath of fresh air. Thanks for preaching the truth m8! Greeting from your former colony north of the US.

Thank you Mack! Very very appreciated!
Respect from Slovenia 🇸🇮
Mack, again.. you are totaly right in every f***ng way... best BF response so far
This is honestly one of the best takes I've seen on this, very good job Mack!!!
At first I thought it was over the top that people complained about women in the game. For me it was the bionic arm and cricket bat was to over the top. But EA handled it so badly that they've shot themselves in the foot.
1234legend1234 Agreed, I don't mind there being women at all. I think more people were annoyed because of the hatred of these so called SJWs and when EA included women that made them a bunch of "SJWs". But yeah EA handled it badly.
To put things in perspective there were more child soldiers than female soldiers in ww2. And yet both groups still only make up a fraction of the majority.
"They've shot themselves in the foot" Just like a person with a bionic claw hand would when operating a sten gun.
You are very quickly becoming my favourite youtube channel. I hope your subscriber count continues to grow, you deserve to be heard!
They seriously believe this is an all gender-inclusive choice when in actuality it's extremely sexist and offensive to women. Like you said Mack, women had such a HUGE part in the war, yeah they were rarely on the field but they were the backbone of everything. From intelligence to manufacturing. Making weapons, tanks, ammo, bombs, etc, etc - that was dangerous work in itself and they contributed so much to the war and gave the brave men who died in the war a fighting chance to get shit done. They were all so brave and seeing EA and DICE telling women that they were nothing unless they're fighting on the frontline with a rifle or a machine gun is so horribly offensive and out of touch. I'm glad people are putting their money where their mouth is.
Best comment kudos
I do think it's hypocritical that people were demanding women characters in games to be held to certain standards because they are somehow representing real women, even if they are in fictional worlds (which I think is bullshit, I don't think the average game needs to be realistic or representing us at all). If you did not agree you were a woman-hater.
And now what they say is: oh well it's fictional so we should misrepresent women in this WW2 game because apparently there are mystery-women who would like that. In fact if you disagree you are a woman-hater. What a backbreaking twist that is.
So it seems that it's all about making fictional woman characters look more appropriate, stronger and more capable in their eyes with a complete disregard for reality, fiction, tone, creativity, what people like, or anything else. Like it's ethical. It's not. Because they are not real women.
It's like they think that 'misrepresenting' something real in a videogame would confuse people or slowly corrupt their minds even though there are plenty of people who have played for thousands of hours and generally they don't believe that dying means they'll respawn at a checkpoint...
Lots of respect to you mack for telling us about this even during your one off holidays. You've made alot of consistent content, defo deserve the time off, sir.
I dont have problem with women character. in fact one of my favs is Lara Croft
Its the assholes practice of EA that i have a problem with
Man I love the Tomb Raider games since ps1
I had a argument with a SJW about BFV on YT and it(idk if it's he or she) told me that I'm sexist and don't like playing as females... it was litheraly interrupting me playing as a female character in a mmo... Actualy out of 18 of my characters 4 are only male.
This has noting to do with females but rather with history and immersion braking features.
Solid video, brother. It's nice to have your take on this; I hope the remainder of your holiday is enjoyable.
I mean just pick something like Starship Troopers as your Battlefield setting. You can have as many men and women as you want, even with robotic arms! And EVERYONE would be fine with it!
Omg that would be awesome
@crimson
#notmybattlefront2 got shit on because the main story was shite (female imperial was the selling point, she turned traitor within 2 missions, was the best and most trusted the rebels had by mission 4), the actress was good and EA wasted her.
That's separate form the MASSIVE pre-order push, the insane loot-boxes, the absurd "you can't have an XXX coloured YYY because it doesn't fit the setting or the simple fact that EA phoned in the game for a second time in as many years.
by comparison in battlefront 2 you followed a clone squad through the prequel trilogy, into the set-up of the original trilogy and even witht he limitations the tanks, power ups, heroes and special abilities were all fairly provided.
@Crimson Tide Not because the antagonist was female. Don't be stupid. Are you really blinded by your politics that much?
Crimson Tide People who enjoy WW2 as a setting happens to value a certain amount of historical accuracy. Katanas and women at the front with prosthetic arms is just too far.
If your setting is Japan in the year 1185 you don't expect to see many Africans or Europeans. Same thing. It just breaks the experience for many people.
Personally I don't care that much since I'm a bit bored with WW2 games by now, but I understand why it puts people off.
Star Wars is whole different issue. The movies got bad reception because they were bad movies. If you enjoy them that's perfectly fine, but people have legitimate reasons to dislike those movies. Reasons that have nothing to do with the lead character being a woman.
Good Work Mac, wish more people had as Level a head as you mate.
About that fortnite 13 year old girl
Why hasnt anyone question yet why her father would allow her to play a 18+ game anyway?
Because it's pegi 12.
Kie 7077 I think he meant why is a 13 year old playing battlefield
It didn’t say she played the game it said she saw the trailer and then saw all the hate it was getting.
the REAL question is why is she playing a bad game?
Holy Crap Mack, this is one of the best damn videos you have ever put out!
Wish I could give this video a million thumbs up.
As a parent, why did Soderlund allow his 13 year old daughter to watch a restricted age trailor? And if she really did watch the trailor and wanted to play the game, why didn't he explain to her that the game is rated M for mature, and as a 13 year old girl it's not appropriate for her? But no, EA marketing didn't think of that.
The first thing I ever thought when seeing the BFV trailer was ''This doesn't look like battlefiled, it looks like Call of Duty''.
And thus my interest in the game just disappeared.
Here, Here, Mack!!! Great argument about the important role played in the war, only not on the frontlines. Calling in daughter to shame people, is a craven and low maneuver as well.
Pre orders are down because
1. We as gamers have learned that pre ordering can sometimes be a complete waste (No Mans Sky, Fallout 4 etc)
2. This game is probably going to be the same exact game as BF1 and I don’t see why anyone would buy another WW game straight after BF1 and Cod WW2. A lot of the fans want another BF2/3 type of shooter. BF1 wasn’t bad but I think it could have been a lot better.
fallout 4 was not as bad no mans sky fo4 was a relly good game but sadly dumped down rpg mechanics
Yeah I enjoyed fallout 4 too
No Man's Sky has improved a lot since the Next update, you should try it.

Yes, There were alot of brave woman who fought with the the French resistance against the Germans. However, alot more french woman just slept with the invading germans.
There's like a study or a book on this right? Warbrides or something
As if they had the choice dumbass. Most of them were protecting their children or family by thinking they could spare them if they were doing so. Maybe 10% did it willingly, it's to say...
@@EstrelliaGaming you're right, it is completely driven by survival instinct, that doesn't change the fact that people like to exaggerate what women did in the wars, instead of just sleeping with/marrying invaders
"As if they had the choice dumbass." - most of them did. They just did natural thing to women, connect with the stronger males (in that time that were victorious German soldiers)
This happens in every invasion from ancient to modern times. Yes, they do have a choice in every invasion. Bind themselves to a single invader or be violated by many of them.
if EA crumbles i will be sooo happy

Brilliant as always Mack.
Delighted you took a break from your break to post something about this as I've seen a f**k tonne on the internet regarding it and just wasn't bothered looking further into it but a Mack opinion is one I'm happy to listen to and you didn't disappoint.
Well said on all fronts sir.
And for the record it has been my experience in life so far that those who judge others and throw words around like "Uneducated" are nearly always themselves the ones who are truly uneducated.
You know most modern day sports personalities are given media training so they don't get themselves into bad situations, you can always tell the ones who took it seriously and the ones who didn't when you see their interviews.
I suggest these big companies start investing in media training for their spokes people. In fact I'd hire Sean Murray from "no mans sky" to train them up because if anyone learned the hard way on how to deal with media it was that guy! (Just a little joke there, "Next" is actually really good, still flawed but a massive improvement).
Come to think of it, they should hire you Mack! I'd love to see you walk into a boardroom full of execs and say "no no no, you can't say that ye daft twats."
Keep up the great work Mack... after your hols.

@@jamessalvatore7054 thats ur pathetic opinion as well
Couldn't have said it better myself. Pretty sure I wrote a comment based around this on one of their videos but think they got rid of it. Typical. Either way, glad you made this video.
It is completely discusting how they add women in the game. They are technically re-writing history for younger individuals (most people who play the game). It is a complete insult to women who did have important roles that wasnt front line, and was insulting to men who actually fighted for their life. This company is a huge scam and a massive discrace to the gaming community. They are a bunch of attention seekers to boost their economy and support irrelevant views for extra sales.
Gosh, I just can't believe it, having watched dozens of videos on this subject, how this video best expresses the issues from every angle. Brilliant. This is the definitive reply to EA.
Don't even pirate this sjw crap people.
Barry Cooper lol " I wouldn't even pirate your game"
Damn nice speech at the end. The violins really gave it emotion.
i don't mind the women's in the game, but i understand ww2 fans don't like it tho, its EA that scares me, i haven't bought a game from EA since bf4, its sad, i loved the battlefield series .
The guy that was fired was involved with every Battlefield game I didn't like. There hasn't been a real BF game since 2142
The women's what?
Best output I've ever heard. I wish I could give you more thumbs up because you summed it all up very nicely.
Women helped in the war but not on the battlefield. (People always bring up the french "resistance", but it didnt have a big effect on the war, the french just claimed all the glory in the end.)
MAAAAN....from all the videos on the topic. You actually hit the point best.
It's a shame I can only thumb this video up once. It's spot on.
I'll give you a proxy one then :p
I never bought any EA game after BF4 (Call of Battlefield) and I will never will till the end of times. DO NOT buy any game that has EA logo on it. Let them die.
Agree but ill still buy the sims since im a fanboy and ill buy anything for that one

i agree the last good one was battlefield 3... after they fixed it though
Bf4 and Bf1 are awesome, I will be buying BfV when it's half price
the only way i would play BFV is if i get it for free... im not going to even buy it 2nd hand
YES mack YES! This video is fucking brilliant. My exact thoughts.
Time to go back to Medal of Honor
Artillery only!
The trailer is just trash, and EA think they can do as they please.
Love your views on the world. I hope your vacation is going well, cant wait for future videos :)
EA just don't learn, i hope this sends some message in tandom with their Battlefront debacle, although i doubt it. I haven't bought an EA game since TOR, and my personal boycott still stands. The prices alone are enough to put me off ever wanting to buy the game £54.99 for standed Ed gtfo.
I don't always agree with your opinions and reviews. But I think you nailed this one. Good speech.
Joe's salty cause he's mexican
spicy like a bean burrito fart
Ur right. There's a small number of crazies that are very vocal on social media and these people seem to make the most noise.
FIRST! Also, pushing disabled Scottish women unrealistically into a WW2 game is just disrespectful to the actual women who trained vigorously for the SOE and the Red Army. Moreover, a 13-year-old wanting to play a WW2 game is just bad parenting. This will trivialise the war into something "fun and kid friendly". War is bloody and horrific, and trivialising the war is just disrespectful and a young child playing a WW2 game will bound to look at the images from the actual war. And a child seeing a mountain of dead bodies in the camps or a soldier with his brains flowing out will scar a child forever. Shit I've known grown men who got PTSD after seeing the aftermath of a JDAM strike on some brown dudes with AKs.
if you think that is disrespectful, i cant wait to hear your opinion on captain america helping america win ww2....can you not take this as another story, it really is about the women isnt it? you just dont like them... because captain america by your definition trivialised the war WAY worse, literally using magic juice to create a super soldier to beat the nazi's.
@Frederick Röders no one's debating it's a game. but this is supposedly ww2, and it looks just like a shitty sw battlefront reskin. we could just as easily tell you to fuck off back to fortnite if realism in games triggers you lol
To beat the Nazi's what?
what about my comment are you trying to grasp?, i was implying that the original comment was dumb for pointing out that a fictional game has fictional elements, like captain america has fictional elements,and that both this game and captain america, have story lines based on ww2, and he/she thinks that because there is a female soldier it disrespects something real women did in ww2, which is just as dumb as me saying captain america disprespects ww2 for being based on it and having dumb shit in it.
@Frederick Röders your argument has little basis
Amen brother, as a veteran I feel like EA did a huge disservice to the woman who supported and fought in the war. Your commentary is well researched, consice, and on point. Keep up the excellent work!
I want to thank these SJW's. They made me quit gaming and enjoy board games and card games with friends. We meet up each week IRL playing games and having a laugh. Thank you so much SJW's for ruining video games for me and forcing me to find something better to do. I now realize how much of a waste and trash video games are. Thanks a bunch.

Why is there so much Trump in a gaming video? Can we stick to gaming?
Loved the video Mack. Very well done on your arguments and level-headed approach to not only expose the absurdity of the situation but that its propagated and fueled by just extreme idiots who simply don't know when to hush up and stop making themselves look like the fools they are.
Angry Joe is such a EA shill...He used to be relevant but he has become a popcorn flick review channel now. Would love to see more level headed guys talk on these issues. Like a replacement for total biscuit. (also pc gaming channel) The thing is a lot of the younger generations prefer communism and socialism over the free market capitalism and see Trump as a bad man when he is what can take down these new world order collectivist types who believe we are all groups not individual people with different dreams and ambitions of our own. If these cultural marxist ever take over the game industry I will pretty much turn to indie games only. Thankfully most japanese game companies have ignored them and didńt cave into thier pressure..yet at least.
holy shit you drank it
Great video Mac - some solid points as always. Not sure including females characters is "game-breaking" (that would be wall-hacks and quick-scoping) but appreciate the sentiment. Each to their own though and keep it up.
