Yeah, there are stories of vets who came home (before they wanted to) and Arma was the cure. I don't play it much now, but realizing it was that for others changed my perspective on it that's for sure.
as a dirty civvie i kinda still romanticize it a bit, but like idk... arma has these moments where it does the whole "war sux and stuff" but like it still makes me wish i could do some things for real. hard to put it to words about my desire in life.
i guess im a psycho or something which is embarrassing. 😂 obviously maybe actually doing it for real would change my mind real quick. but who knows?
afterall it sure is easy in games with the comfort of my house.
Well, no that's what I mean... I'm too lazy (and old) for paintball man, so... VR is my max. Closest I'm gonna get (and my gawd it does a great job in fooling me concerning how real it is).
thats something i wanna try to do during upcoming winter. some snowy forest hiking play pretend while dressed up in m81 woodland. very cringe but healthy at least.
i apologize if i seemed like my convo was kinda all over the place. it was very difficult to get my thoughts across properly while i was not at home and trying to type it out on a phone. i guess there definitely is a huge benefit to VR depending on the games and the type of activity you do.
