Talk:Patriots: A Nation Under Fire

Interpretation of "Discrimination" tag
It seems that the passage about WHY the game got the discrimination tag ("from the content of the game, it's apparent" etc.) is conjecture and original research. I was looking through the rather amusing (in its randomness) list of games that PEGI slapped this tag on, and wanted to check why this game in particular. If one was just speculating, it could absolutely go both ways — it's obvious that the game isn't too nuanced on depicting terrorists (they are just abstract Muslims fundamentalists that invade and you shoot them).

Of course this is not that important, but if the mentioned passage is conjecture, it was inserted in bad faith ("game could not be interpreted to be stereotyping Muslims"). And Discrimination tag's description talks specifically about stereotyping; e. g. Postal 2 itself never got the tag, but its Multiplayer add-on and one DLC did (maybe they contained some specific stereotyping phrases?).

This topic is amusing and weird: for example, it **seems** that the Czech game Original War got the discrimination tag because the Soviets were badmouthing Americans as dirty thieves (since in the game US did indeed cheat the USSR out of world domination). And SWAT: Target Liberty **seems** to be about nobly stamping out pervasive Korean-American crime, which could lead to stereotypes being thrown around. So it would be interesting to find out, if possible, what was the real deal with Patriots: A Nation Under Fire. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AyeBraine (talk • contribs) 16:44, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
