Just a game, not that fuckin deep bruh, also goes for the MC's really. A big problem I have with premises like this is that often the author doesn't write people that act like actual gamers and just default to making every "try hard" into some jock cliche.

re-reading the first two chapters make it clear that this Loid sniper dude showed up in chapter 1 as a new player and ninja. So at least part of his cringelord shtick is because he's salty that Kuro managed to get ahead using a class he gave up on. He's just angry that someone else is a better gamer than him lmao.

Thanks to the nicely vague nature of Japanese when it comes to gendering people in the second-person, I also able to try and hint at this a bit in the translation by having Loid slip a bit and consistently refer to Kuro as "she" after Hikari shows up despite trying to make a big deal out of it and using "he" earlier in the scene in front of his clan members. It was a little bit of a liberty on my part, but even in the original text he gets a little bit more tunnel vision after Hikari shows up, so it felt appropriate to me for him to stop making something of a show out of it and instead get back to his saltiness and obsession
