World War 1 games? 2008-10-26 01:01:28 Reply

Has anyone else noticed that there are like 10000 WW2 games, but pretty much no WW1 games?

I played Warfare 1917...

and it kinda got me thinking why no one has jumped on this. I searched WW1 games on wikipedia and such and all i got was flight simulator games. Not a single trench warfare game such as Warfare 1917, possibly a first person game though or even a RTS.
Any ideas as to why its like this?

(I'm sorry if you think this belongs in the video game section but its not really talking about a specific game just an idea relating to WW1 games.)

That's because weapons were more interesting in WWI. Weapons back then flat out sucked.

yeah i can see that, but that whole trenchwarfare for an RTS would be pretty cool i think.
Imagine warfare 1917 on a much larger scale. I think it would make for a decent shooter too, if the put the effort in

they barely did anything in ww1. very little strategy because of shit weapons and artillery. all they did was dig trenches on either side and bombed the shit out of each other until one side was completely demolished. you think that would be a good concept for a game?
