In early August of 1914, all all the major European powers had entered what would later be called the First World War. 100 years ago from today, it was already in full swing, and death and bloodshed would continue for more than four years.
Having presented a number of related games over the past two months, Herr M. and I wrap up our theme with a discussion which, retrospectively called Digital Trenches: War in computer games as illustrated on World War I, touches upon our general impressions how war was and is treated in computer games. What are your impressions? Should war be subject of such entertainment? If so, are there limits, borders which shouldn't be crossed? We would love to hear it!
