Comment on Games with singleplayer campaigns that let me fight/kill nazis?

Fallout 2, Fallout 3, and Fallout NV the Nazis may have a different coat of paint but a fascist is a fascist regardless of what face they wear. Weirdly doesn’t apply to Fallout 1 since I think Unity would fall under weird form of Authoritarian Transhuman Collectivism, fuck I’ve started talking theory. In summary kill Enclave and Blòt the Romaboo larpers!
Is it bad that the Enclave is my second favorite faction besides the NCR?

The enclave as a concept of just fascinating. That is another one of my alt-hist (and occasionally irl too) fascinations, is old-government remnants and what do they do? FEDRA in The Last of Us is another one, technically the last remnant of the old USA order, but functionally has degenerated into just another authoritarian faction in the apocalypse. Arguably the Brotherhood of Steel counts too, remnant of the old world US military.
As for IRL, Taiwan is a remnant of the old chinese government before the communists took the mainland, and Belarus actually has 3 governments right now – the one currently in power , functionally a puppet to Putin/Russia, the transitional government formed abroad in 2022 hoping to replace the puppet government once given the chance, and hosted in Ottawa for over 100 YEARS is the original exiled government of Belarus from the Communist revolution in the 1910s.

Also I think there’s still some fun and explore with them, namely with a good/ morally dubious variant. In every game we’ve seen them in it’s quite obvious that the base level personnel have no clue what the Enclave is actually doing, so have fun with that make a faction of these base level guys who survived while the higher ups died make it the battle of Adams AFB from fallout 3. It’d be fun to see them being minutemen like or something because they legit believe in the ideals of Americans without any of the bad because they weren’t poisoned enough by propaganda and exposure to the wasteland helped them chill out.
But yeah they are also a really fun exploration of a remnant government still kicking around. Some other ones for you to look up would be Mount Athos and the empire of Trebizond, both were Eastern Roman remnants with Mount Athos technically still existing.
