Chronopolis Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 I think it's both hilarious and a bit disturbing (should we be doing this?) Quote

Dergonu Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Uh, this one might be going a little far. They make a lot of these parody games, but this is one is too much imo. Quote
Plk_Lesiak Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Devgru-p games are actually somewhat interesting with how their approach their parodies – I imagine that if someone is a WW2/history buff, they'll find tons of well-placed references to real events and biographies of the "heroines". It's super-distasteful of course, but I kind of won't be able to resist giving it a try anyways. Also, officially reserving the right to do a FuwaReview for it. Mr Poltroon 1 Quote
Formlose Gestalt Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 They could at least get the title right... Meine Waifu... Besides that I don't think the world needs this, but oh well... Quote
littleshogun Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) Considering that ATLUS need to censor Hitler to allow Persona 2 to be localized (Presumeably), I guess it'll be hard to accept here so I wouldn't comment much on this seeing that it's a very sensitive issue. If anything, at least I can comment that the age are obviously very hilariously uncanny with the 'heroines' looks too young for their supposed age, and that we didn't have cute Reinhard here (Sorry).

Besides that I don't think the world needs this, but oh well... The way the titlecard is formatted I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be a pun on "Mein Kampf". As for the game itself, this could go either way. The best satires about the Third Reich expose how pathetic its leaders actually are once you take away the aura surrounding them. I can see an angle where turning Hitler into a yandere or whatever could deliver on that front. Then again this game could turn out to be one big edgelord "hahaha genocide" joke, which is really something nobody needs (at least I don't). Quote

I think it's a refernce to "Mein Führer", but either way "Mein Waifu" just sounds weird to a native speaker. But I guess for 99% of audience "mein" sounds more German than "meine".

alpacaman Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Yeah, that's also possible. Then again German doesn't really have fixed rules when it comes to the grammatical gender of foreign words. Speaking about the title, what is "the definitely unauthorized parody" supposed to mean? Who could have authorized this game? Is Hitler still alive somewhere in South America ?

I believe it references "My Girlfriend is the President", but I don't think that has much bearing on the actual content of the game (unlike their North Korea game which was a very direct spoof of Go! Go! Nippon). Quote

I think this is in bad taste and wouldn’t want to back it myself for that reason. They are free to make whatever they want, though, even if it does make people go "but why though?" That’s the beauty of free speech, I guess. solidbatman 1 Quote

mitchhamilton Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 i wont play unless we have a scene where we find a young girl with a diary hiding with her family in a cupboard. Quote
nihilloligasan Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 I heard about this a few days ago, and I can't help but laugh at it. It's such a stupid idea that I can't take it seriously, I'm probably going to check it out sometime. Quote
Cardinal Posted August 8, 2019 Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) So... can we invade europe with our waifu? If the story changes and you win the ww2 with your waifu, then gg (or maybe we can save hitler by going to the true ending and send her to the art school) Edited August 8, 2019 by Cardinal Quote

It's been in development since 1945 anyway it feels like. Cardinal and Mr Poltroon 2 Quote
