Because americunts got BTFO'd so hard they had to make several hollywood movies making themselves look like if they won the war there.

The knowledge that you won't really win the war in the end. Atypical for the genre.

Because it's a controversial setting that can't be very easily exploited into silly shallow military power fantasy, which USUALLY (not always, think those Vietnam War segments in some of the CoD games) forces the developers to more nuanced and thoughtful approach.

It's not a war that can be easily glorified, in fact it'so one that has been regarded with sense of bitterness and tension.
Also, it's associated with an era of great iconography, massive cultural and artistic shifts and movements resulting to a lot of iconic movies, music and other memorabilia that can be easily exploited and people will immediately resonate with.

The best Vietnam Era shooter is still Illusion Software's Vietcong. Shame that it does not get the recognition it deserves. But it's a perfect illustration of how and why is Vietnam war setting so easily turned into powerful experience.

Also, fuck Fortunate Son. I propose a new theme for Vietnam war gaming discussions.

i love anything to do with vietnam because of the absolute insanity of the war.

there was no reason to go to vietnam, none at all. america had to invent a reason to go shoot some gooks, then they drafted thousands of normies to go fuck shit up.

if it were today, imagine being told you were going to be sent to a jungle to kill some fucker because 'MERICA. you don't have a choice, if you say no you'll be fined and locked up and called a traitor.

now you're in vietnam, completely foreign environment, you and everyone in your unit are sick from god knows how many weird diseases and bugs, you're in the stinking hot jungle sweating your balls off and some fucking gook monkey is hiding in the bushes waiting to shoot you and run off.

or you're in a convoy of transport choppers being dropped off at an LZ thats literally being torn to shreds by hundreds of NVA, but the choppers dont turn around, you are shoved out of the chopper and into a meat grinder.

top that off with every motherfucker being high on whatever they can find, because fuck it we're gonna die anyway might as well die high.

brass that are trying to fight a land war as a police action, fire bases dropped in the middle of nowhere and reinforced via choppers that cant come in most of the time because of heavy AA fire.

fuck man. meanwhile back home the national guard are shooting student protesters in the fucking face for daring to argue against the state.

i fucking love it.

Its one of the last famous war that was fought with conventional weapons and tactics. non conventional warfare isn't fun except for hit and run tactics.

Is that the way americans judge the outcome of a war? The successfulness of their burger chains?
