Movies often base their plotlines and characters on “true events” to try and elicit a cheap emotional reaction in audiences. When one learns that the events unfolding before them actually happened to someone, it should become a lot easier to sympathize with a character. Games tend to not do this too frequently.
Sure, we had a period where the World War II setting was basically the only type of shooter being made, but most games take extreme liberties with historical periods and make that distinction up front. We Are Chicago looks to employ real-life scenarios to create a gripping drama about inner-city Chicagoan life. Its goal is to enlighten us to the plight that many people face every day.
Sadly, the end result feels devoid of life.
