It's too bad games aren't allowed to let player's be a real antagonist where the game and characters make it obvious you are the bad guy. Unless it's horribly comical people take it too seriously saying "oh that's promoting terrible stuff". Even though "media doesn't effect us"... until it's something bad right?

I mean that's why shit games like Hatred got all that attention for the wrong reasons. Nobody actually finished the game or attacked it for gameplay. It was how it "was a terrible precendent" or "you kill for no reason". Yeah, like any bad guy in most AAA games with shallow half villians? But I guess that's okay because you play the good guy... right?

Killzone.

No, not unless you're playing as both of the opposing sides.
The antagonist is an adversary to the protagonist. The protagonist is the leading character, which is not always the "good guy".

Killzone, although that's mainly due to bad writing on the devs part

I think a good chunk of Wolfenstein TNO's story was about how the characters realize that they are not even rebels anymore just terrorists, ruining lives for odinary people who, although living under a reign but are fine without them stirring shit up.
The writing antagonized the villians fine but their society was so prosper.

Kinda, there's that one sequence where you hear the army dudes having a conversation and they talk about how the group is actually causing a lot of issues with normal life

Wrong. There's a lot of self awareness in Killzone.

By definition, no. Plenty of games where you play the bad guy though.
Tyranny is good if you like the old fashioned cRPGs

The concept of Tyranny was amazing, I just wish they made it a VN so I didn't have to slog through boring "gameplay" made obsolete before 9/11.

It's satire. The last game they made was straight up anti-Israeli propaganda. Not memeing.

At the surface, it really does seem like GI Joe in space. But the series has always had a very unsubtle hidden message that the Helghast (who were forced off their homeworld of Vekta) were the ones being oppressed.

The story is that you are forced to go into a reservation to kill poverty stricken refugees as a part of the galactic war on terrorism. The game ends by acknowledging the ISAs duplicity.

You fight Palestinians, if the Palestinians were British space Nazis.
