George Wiedman of Super Bunnyhop put forth that arma is the only anti war war game because of the realistic part of walk 30 minutes somewhere and then get shot dead by a guy you never saw. It's a very unglorious experience
i completely agree but those guys who organize those massive multiplayer battles, complete with tactical planning and coordination? i feel like a lot of them are former & prospective soldiers
I've been playing Arma for more than a decade with various communities and while there is a lot of active or ex soldiers about (and they're basically all fucking psychos) the reverse never really seemed to be true. You don't really get people who wanna join an army from arma, in my experience. At least not if they weren't planning to anyways, cadets, junior recruits and such.

Not ARMA but DCS, MilSim people in my experience don't have much overlap with actual military recruiting.
