Well, I believe in one of your posts I read something like Hitler never wanted to exterminate Slavics from Eastern territories. So, if it was not for enslavement and extermination, than it was for liberating them. That's called logical deduction.
As for "holodomor", Stalin purges - I believe that this here game focuses strictly on the WW2, so these topics are pretty much out of that time scope. And I am really surprised with the fact you are not aware of this. It is quite disturbing. But the fact that you mentioned this was BEFORE the war is kind of optimistic, gives me hope that you are not that illiterate as you seemed to be with your statement, where you openly denied Hitler's plans.
Besides, if you have noticed, there was the post by that Daffi or whatever the name of the Game Director, that the game's main focus was not on Stalin or Hitler, but on "celebration" of the great feat and sacrifice, heroism of the Soviet soldiers.
So, in order not to be banned by one-sided mods on these forums, I will try to keep the conversation at bay, not going off-topic, and I really suggest that you do the same.
Peace
I didnt say anything like that, nor i did deny any mass murder plans. You might got irritated by the word "main reason", which was maybe not a good word to use in this emotionally motivated discussion, so its a mistake on my part and im sorry.
However calling me like and pushing me into the nazi corner, because you dont like what you read, is offensive to me aswell you got offended about my post.
England and soviets being allies is no "vision" as someone stated above. Its obvious, once Soviets looses the war, england has no ally anymore in europe and is left on its own. It had defenitly an influence on starting the operation barbarossa.
Once the wehrmacht forces threw soviet forces (i need to call them soviet, because they werent entirely russian army) out of ukraine, the population was overjoyed by the "liberator". Little did they knew that the dicatorship was just replaced.
Ofc nazis had plans with eastern european countries and their inhabitants aswell, once they had won the war, and might have been made true. However germany lost the war and all those documents are visible now. The documents of a possible Stalin victory over europe and the world however are still buried in the kremlin archives, which are not open to public. If it comes to ideological motivated crimes, soviets and nazis were close to each other.
You cannot reduce the discussion about crimes against humanity only to the interwar period, but at the same time talk about nazi crimes. The prewar area showed, how the soviet regime handled their own people and their view about humans. If you talk about nazi ideology and give the holocaust example, you also need to talk about soviet ideology and name their crimes, which was not restriced to WWII.
See, why i only did write a short statment in the post you were offended by? If you want to talk about this time period seriosuly, you need to create a wall of text, nobody will read in the end. Thats how complex this topic is.
I doubt that relic will give a official statment about this and defenitly not a apology.
