People always prefer to play the bad guy. Apparently there is something very appealing about fascism.
Bad guys tend to theoretically have cooler and better toys to help portray a underdog feel for the good guys. Ever notice how much cooler dark side force powers are compared to light side? Also empire is cooler looking.

Theoretically.
White fucking armor which looks like made of plastic is not cool. Most propably economically collapsed and ruined by uprisings empire (I'm basing only on movies) is not cool. And why would you kill someone with suffocation or some lasers when you can just tell him 'ur a fukken looser and a fagget, go kill urself' and he'll do it. Light side rules

As a matter of fact most people will chose a MG42 over a WW1 MG, a heavier armored and armed Panther over a T-34, Panzergrens with Stgs over Penals etc. Even the Ostheer Sniper is more fun than his Soviet counter part as you get that rewarding feeling of sniping something more often.
Throw into that a boring Russian tech and call in structure that doesn´t let you get good infantry/ artillery and tanks at the same time and you have an unattractive faction.

It's much easier to reach late game in 3v3 and 4v4 so it's easier to play as axis in those game mode. The soviet with the right doctrine can keep up with the axis but the soviet player needs to know what he's doing.

There seems to be a bit of a favoritism.
What if I'd tell you that in other gamemodes I've seen this picture reversed more times than I could bother to counter?
Although you won't get any argument from me that in 4v4/3v3 Axis are stronger.

Good guys, bad guys, preference for a faction in a videogame equals an attraction towards fascism holy non sequitur batman. No offence man, but thats Kindergarden grade reasoning. I mean, one might just conclude that with your what, 500 axis games played you are a genocidal, antisemitic asshole that reenacts Auschwitz in his basement, while your even more numerous games with Soviets indicate your hearty appreciation of Katyn and the Holodomor. Or maybe that kind of thinking is just daft.
Also, Nazism does not equal Fascism either, the former is sui generis, there actually are substantial differences, the most obvious being the import of "scientific" racism and antisemitism in particular in Nazi ideology.

because we know despite that germany won the warWhat does that have to do with anything? But even if I mentioned realism, you can still have better equipment and lose. You are taking out of consideration things like supply lines, numbers, fuel, raw materials and strategy and whatnot.
Besides that this is a video game history < gameplayAnd your point is? People prefer Panthers and MG42s because they are stronger. I´m not talking about realism, I´m talking about the game. They are stronger - in the very early days of OP Maxims people played more Soviets.

So axis is easy to play? Hehe.
