Helldivers II

Very rarely am I rendered speechless at a game. I am pleased to say that helldivers 2 did this, and then some. The devs have somehow revolutionised live service gaming into something truly special, it actually feels like you are fighting a war and that your missions count for something. However, the one thing stopping this game from being 10/10 is the bugs, no not the terminids, the actual bugs. Some can be annoying but they are mainly minor visual glitches. Despite this, the game averages weekly patches that also come with a few surprises, such as flying bugs. In conclusion, the chaos and unpredictability of helldivers 2 makes every mission unique and fun in its own way.

This game literally came out of nowhere and has absorbed my free time. It's the first game I have played in years in which I actually have fun. It is so good that I have pulled my friends back after so many months to fight for Super Earth.

The community in this game is absolutely incredible. They have a great sense of humour and are willing to help anyone in need of assistance.

Despite the rough sever launch due to immense player counts, which have since been solved, this game has the potential to be a very early on GOTY.

If you are considering buying this game, I couldn't recommend it more.

FOR SUPPERRRRR EARRTTTHHHHHH!!!

10/10.

SUPER EARTH PROVIDES SUPER EARTH PROTECTS FOR MANAGED DEMOCRACY!!

Helldivers 2 is probably the best multiplayer game since Towerfall Ascension. First of all, the bile titan in the room. This game is a satire, and it's not hiding it. Just look at the trailers. You'll see.

The community is actually pretty nice as well, something rare for popular multiplayer games. In all my hours of playing, I haven't encountered anybody I would consider toxic.

Gameplay wise, the game is awesome. Really (Redacted because IMDB doesn't like profainity) awesome. Friendly fire is always a welcome addition, and helldivers makes pulls it off expertly. Fighting off hoards of fascist space bugs who totally aren't just minding their own buissness until we started killing them for OIL is a blast.

This game is genuinely some of the most fun I've had in a while. The community is amazing, despite the friendly fire no one kills each other and instead will help complete objectives that every single player no matter where they are contribute to. It keeps getting updates bringing more and more content each time. The only real issue is the War Bond mechanic (battle pass) you get the initial one free and enough super credits to get the next one but after that you'll need to pay real money to continue. But even then, it takes so long to finish a Warbond, which I will say never expires, that you won't need to buy another one for a while.

There was a rocky start, but it was quickly fixed and now it's so much fun I can't even stand it. It's been a while since I've played a multiplayer game where the player base has so much comraderie, teamwork, and all around good vibes. The game's tongue in cheek humor is delightful. The weapons are diverse. The planets and scenery are beautiful. The missions are exciting and challenging. Hunting for samples and, sometimes, losing them in the heat of battle is at once rewarding and frustrating. Just what a good game should be. Enemies are downright terrifying. It's really cool to be part of something so fulfilling. For Democracy. For Super Earth! Let's goooooo!!!
