Helldivers 2 appeals for the same reason as EDF. Starship Troopers was a fucking cool book.

Re: What are you playing?
The trailer didn't give me even a hint of that impression. So where does the hype come from? Marketing faggotry?
Thinking Starship Troopers, a world about an actual functioning fascist military state via ruthless eradication of xeno scum, could possibly get turned into proper vidya these days is incredibly foolish.

EDF is basically Starship Troopers but with VoRP-approved weebshittery.
The new Helldivers is taking its cue more from the parody movie version of Starship Troopers which was completely antiwar and antifascist.

Which is especially gay because the movie doesn't even have the humanoid aliens.

Re: What are you playing?
Nabbed The Outer Worlds from this week's Epic delay in insolvency. Bretti gud. An unashamed chimera of Fallout, BioShock and Borderlands. Though it could be my racist paranoia but I feel a slight tinge of Sweet baby Inc, what with everyone being either a shade of brown or yellow, and that they used the uglify filters from Dishonored.

Nonsense. I'm seen some art and screenshots for this game, and I have yet to see a cute waifu holding a fuckhuge gun.rabidtictac wrote: ↑Sun Apr 07, 2024 4:58 amEDF is basically Starship Troopers but with VoRP-approved weebshittery.

Re: What are you playing?
Disgust.
No, it isn't.
The shooting is decent at max difficulty, and that's it.
The reason why the game doesn't have a crafting system, according to the devs, is that it goes against "socialist values" -i guess complete dependence on the state is a virtue in these clowns' heads.
It's not paranoia.
The gayme has been written by a herd of MarzGunts, and you haven't progressed in it enough to notice the Reddit & Memey-tier writing (the scientist in the intro was the first clue), the "socialism good, capitalism bad", the "men incompetent, wahmen better and eco-friendly", the "eat ze bugs", every woman in your team being a dyke and/or an ace (like the default main character).
The NPCs look reasonably ugly in the beginning, then the women will devolve into Starfield-esque nightmares.
Wait until you reach the epic quest about giving relationship advices to the Indian ace lesbo - and of course, none of the dialogue options include "the fuck do you want a relationship for if you don't want sex, you cunt? Just tell that Asian bitch to remain friends, and stop bothering me with your garbage!".
This is why torrents exist, people.

Re: What are you playing?
I figured out the subtle economic criticism, with the corporate jingles as national anthem & sheit, but somehow gave the devs the benefit of the doubt in which they are just plain blunt in their satire instead of Plebbit/Twatter communists. Though I did notice they were memeing harder than Borderlands 2+
