First person shooter but leftist instead of imperialist, with campaigns based on historical revolutionary struggles
cod viet cong would get me to actually play one.
bonus points if it starts with you as an american conscript being ordered to his death with an impossible mission that makes halo 2 jackals look easy, and the way you progress (that the game doesn't tell you) is to frag your officer before it switches to the NVA perspective you play the rest of the story.
First half hour is you being a super cool highly trained american spec ops guy being sent behind enemy lines, only to get murked by the actual mc, some guy who used to be a teacher turned nva who now has to fight against the imperialists
Sounds cool. I feel like people would lose their shit if a game like that was made. I can just imagine the media shit storm. Conservatives would find themselves suddenly ardently defending the Vietnam War. Again.
