    honestly putting myself into lib brain mode, this meme is actually pretty funny. but that rests on the assumption that the FBI is good

      Yeah, flawed premise, but both a good meme and I'm curious to see the show it's from.

      Yeah I actually felt it lol. The only game I can ever be evil in is Civ VI because I pretend I am the USSR steamrolling imperialists.

      Also GTA because all the NPCs just feel like ragdolls.

      Not to mention that if a few things in history just broke a few different ways, Hitler could have been a Saddam-like figure (pre-Desert Storm) allied with the UK and the US in a global war against the USSR.

    Actually, not inaccurate: FBI officially approved of Gestapo at the time.

    The joke's on you

    I can't ever do an evil playthrough because I'm too much of a good person

      I managed to do an evil playthrough on like mass effect successfully. But only because it was a point based system where it weighed doing some moral calculus where you allow a genocide to happen on the same level as being mildly rude to bureaucrats, so I did a lot of the latter instead of the former. I think it's called a Bernie run.

        The worst thing about Renegade Mass Effect runs is that you have to be a Human Supremacist.

        There's a point in the first one where you basically get cornered by a far right stooge and you can choose between "muh free speech, but you are wrong" and "you ar e100% correct" with no option to punch him out.

      People tend to think of the FBI as CSI: Miami rather than the bad guys from ET.
