The Satire of Helldivers II
Warning: The following video has not been approved by The Ministry of Truth, and could potentially be propaganda: Viewer discretion is advised!
Fellow Citizens of Super Earth, we celebrate the successful victory against the Illuminate invasion, sending the alien invaders packing, but are the Helldivers always the good guys?
Today I look into the brilliant satire of Helldivers II, from its not-so-subtle jab at patriotism and war, to the fun nature of its lore, and presentation, giving us a unique co-op shooter like no other!
Also, don't mind me bringing up Starship Troopers from time to time (I simply would like to know more!).
