I was really fascinated by this article, but ultimately a bit disappointed by the conclusion. This isn't about the ethics of gaming at all, but the author's drawn conclusion about the ethics of a specific game (with a brilliant long-form exploration of the historical context behind the game). Why enjoying a Nazi-general-commander game is less justifiable than, say, Postal (where you play a distraught postal worker going on a senseless killing rampage), or Grand Theft Auto is not explored at all. Also, the Milgram experiment (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milgram_experiment https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milgram_experiment) is highly relevant when vilifying people for taking orders even if they understand that the orders may be immoral.
