How could they do this???
Loved that mission. Also lol at how they had the little indigenous huts all over the beaches. C&C was so over the top with tropes.
Such happy memories. Got the whole series as this random gift from someone my parents knew at church because they didn’t want it anymore or something. My parents in a moment of wonderful ignorance were like oh our daughter likes the computer, she does computer things, these will be fine because they’re from someone at church.
I’m pretty sure most people would attack Florida if they could.
Is this Red Alert 2? I loved that game as a kid.
Even as an 8 year old I liked playing the red side more than the boring old blue side.
I knew nothing about communism, what the Soviets were or anything like that (the cutscenes didn’t work on my computer, I think it was pirated). I remember a family member asking what I was playing once, I told them I was playing as some guys called the Soviets and they were like “Oooh uhhh be careful, they aren’t really that nice.” which to be fair is probably the nicest way you could be anti-Soviet.
Even aliens from Star Trek have attacked Florida specifically.
Every woman in the game is sexualised. You’re not missing much with the cutscenes.
Ya like even though they portray the Soviets as cowardly, selfish, and backbiting, and the West as universally brave, honourable, and self sacrificing, the Soviets still come of as better people.
Don’t forget that the soviets are also devious mind controllers. Still love the game, it’s like every trope all at once and a childhood classic.
