Precisely something that I observed as well. Other games did not even slightly hesitate to make use of multimedia in their narrative to present an uncritically enthusiastic view of the US, capitalism, NATO, military intervention, and anticommunism generally. I recall Westwood's Command and Conquer Red Alert has some batshit insane politics (In the original C&C the GDI's Carter ofhandedly refers to Gavrilo Princip as a "madman who started WW1"), and EA's Soviet Strike and Nuclear Strike titles also had uncritical support of US military intervention, to the point that it had a voiceover where an actor puts on a comical Bill Clinton impression as a shady government official gives him the Other Kennedy Assassination Tape shakedown while explaining they were the ones actually in charge despite his protestations. And this was presented as a good and necessary thing in the complex geopolitical world of post-Soviet collapse, alongside re-intervening in Vietnam, North Korea, etc.

All the above was, of course, presented in cutting edge fashion with fully voiced real actors, computer graphics, stock footage of real combat and so on. Hardly a text box with white font over a blue background.
