you can go through the community hubs/reviews of basically any WW2/military shooter or strategy game and see multiple people with Hitler avatars, swastikas, black suns, anything you can think of. it's extremely prevalent.

hell, just going through the HOI4 community hub and in the first 30 seconds of scrolling I've come across at least 3 nazi posts. the forums are completely unmoderated, going through the discussions and I've already found multiple instances of straight up holocaust denial/glorification. it's absolutely rampant.
