Most competitive FPS streamers set delay, otherwise you get stream sniped.

On more serious note if you want war cosplay check out Kadyrow tiktok and instagram, they LARP running around behind secured Russian lines with a whole multiple cameras crew pretending to take part in active engagements by shooting at abandoned buildings or into the air.




I wouldn't underestimate Kadyrow's troops as LARPers. They have been accused of a lot of war crimes including torture, rape and murder.


That’s their “job”. The fighting is for the poor bastards who happen to not be ethnic Russians and not Chechens. Even in hell everybody has their reserved role and for the army their role is to die ( some things never change ) while for the Chechens their role is to be a caricature of themselves conveniently spreading the fear around the world so the next time the army doesn’t even need to fight. It’s pure gangsterism coming from inside the head of a really small man.


Tons of ethnic Russians went as cannon fodder.


I think this conflict has shown that they aren't as good at fighting against actual soldiers as they are at "fighting" against defenseless people.


> LARP

'Live Action Role-Play', acting out costumed fantasy/in-character ..'scenes', it seems.
