It is real but probably not what people think. They’re not exactly hiding the fact that they’re using footage from a game.

Its not about them trying to pass video game footage as real. Them leaning into the video game esthetic is the problem. Its glorifying war, death, and destruction. Its also intentionally appealing to military aged boys/men. Its a sleezy recruitment video

I don’t disagree but my point was that usually with news like this it’s someone trying to slip in video game footage as real to potray their military more capable than it really is or to claim that something was hit when it actually wasn’t. I think it’s safe to assume that this is what most people imagine happened here too but this is different. It’s just a PSA - I’m not defending what they’re doing.
