Games glorify violence for the spectacles and push pro-violent ideas on people along with multiple misconceptions of violence. I won’t blame video games for fascist scum to do bad things, but I won’t absolve violent video games and violent media any responsibility in misinforming gamers on violence either.
Action slop is slop because the fighters in action lack self preservation and preparation. Just compare how much less views an artillery or tank fight gets compared to any melee combat or gun fight. Even though the former is used much more often, it isn’t as interesting to proles.
I think milsims like arma and hell let loose get action right. There’s more focus on teamwork, long ranged combat, safety, and some level of maturity about what you’re doing. Gamers become much more encouraged to respect other people and not view themselves narcissistically like what self insert action slop does all the time. Ironically, I think the most realistically violent games do the most to discourage people from participating or consuming violent media.

>>39563I’d rather than be educated on violence and avoidant of it than be a bloodthirsty fascist barbarian.
>>39564You can't help using buzzwords for everything, huh?
>>39559did you consider the possibility of aBBC, op?
>>39562>Cod is genuinely pro us propagandaThis is a genuine criticism of CoD but it has nothing to do with it being unrealistic. Milsims sure are not the opposite of CoD in that regard, go play Spec Ops: the Line or something.
