Modern history is a potentially politically explosive issue accross Asia. It is not just events Japan's role and action in WWII; you get very divisive views about North Korea, Chinese terroritial disputes and claims, legacy of Mao and Deng etc. I blame the style of history was taught back in Asia (I grew up back there) - there are too much flavour in national glorification and victim mentality.

That said, I don't really mind playing this game, because I think I take an open mind to history - I used to play a lot of WWII war games (and I don't mind playing Axis or Allied). This game, imo, is no worse or better than Axis vs Allied (the board game) or Civilization WWII-mods (not only you can go Hideki Tojo; you can go Hitler, Musolini or Stalin!). If you want to feel better, there are mainland Chinese players in this game (using VPN); and all of you Yukikaze fans, there are fan arts have Yukikaze on Pixiv drawn with Chinese dress (Yukikaze was the ship Chiang Kai Shek used to flee to Taiwan).
