The reasoning is kinda obvious in this article, but he explains it much better than I can be bothered to.
Real battles > fictional Michael Bay BS

Don't know why people say WW2s done to death, this console generation there's only like 2? WW2 games the rest are fiction. Atm it's more like a WW2 drought. Ofcourse it'll always be my favourite setting to play in, it's the easiest to get immersed in. Future settings and even modern games, played it's like "eh this shit COULD happen" WW2 games it's like well this shit actualy DID happen and it was probably alot more hectic and dramatic than any game can replicate.
