    Don’t forget many combat simmers are military oriented or straight up militarists and we know where that audience is politically inclined. I can assure you that in Russian milsim circles we do have all ranges of people, with quite many being connected to government or military forces one way or another.

    Still, in the communities (Russian, obviously) where I play we have a hard ban on any Ukraine-related scenarios for a multitude of reasons. At least we have decency NOT TO hype our shit on the ongoing bloody war.

        Arma series (Zeus operations). DCS World. From something more casual - Squad (rarely), Hell Let Loose (even more rarely), Project Reality (for a change). Played Post Scriptum a while ago. Also spent lots of time in many other sims, like Dangerous Waters, Silent Hunter, modded Cold Waters, civil aviation sims (Prepar3D, MSFS, X-Plane), you name it.

        That’s why I actually know Grim Reapers. They are just your average hype-loving YouTube fuckers. They’ll be popping out whatever content can get most views. Including shit like you’ve witnessed. They are not politically active or anything. Just your regular Murican crowd.
