I quit partway through. That shit was so fucking bad. the devs literally think gulags are concentration camps but with snow. I did like using photo mode to take some nice shots of Lenin statues.
They mistranslated posters honoring the fallen of WW2 into Lenin propaganda to be scary or some shit. They also fuck up with Greek dialect big time. The whole this is just orientalist BS
There's one of those collectible mission things where you can track down Soviet flags and cut them down to let them fly away. The game doesn't say why you're doing this, but the implications is you're cleaning the area of some horrifying past. Also there's a journal entry somewhere that refers to the Soviets as colonizers.
Really how?
The gulag section in Rise of the Tomb Raider, it's just the most Solzhenitsyn brained shit I've seen outside of Reddit.
