The video game Battlefield V, which will be released in October, recently dropped their trailer, and some sexist game freaks are really mad about it.
Before we dive into this story, I have one question. Have you ever played a video game for historical accuracy? Yeah, didn’t think so. I think it’s fair to say video games are fun because they’re not real life. So, after the trailer released, men (that have nothing better to do with their time) basically began freaking out because women were featured in the trailer of the game that takes place during World War II. This, eventually, started a revolution on Twitter with the hashtag #NotMyBattlefield.
Wow, as someone who studied military history in college, I have to say this a disgrace of a game, especially when they claim it to be historically accurate. Way to remember our veterans, Dice.

Female amputee in the frontlines in WW2 with a Thomson and a cricket bat? Yea that seems pretty historically accurate to me! I think I going to stick with @PostScriptumGam #NotMyBattlefield

In fairness, plenty of gamers are pretty freakin’ stoked about Battlefield V.
Dude i really really can't believe you guys are mad with a Woman being on the cover on Battlefield V. She looks awesome. I hope she is the main character in the story.
