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.

Feeling like playing halo but in third person and with 4 friends?

This is your game

Feeling like playing the game hero's duty from the movie Wreck it Ralph?

This is your game

Looking for a game where tou need to hold the line and make a heroic sacrifice staying behind so your teamates can board extraction?

This is your game.

Helldivers 2 is basically Starship troopers the game, you are are going to shoot some bugs for honor and to keep your freedom and your way of life.

You can even see some in game propaganda of protestors stating that the government is lying and all they want is the oil that's why they are attacking the poor bugs, this one hits so close to our real world current problems

Alao you can count on the devs to keep this lore live, this game will NEVER go political!

I am a true servant of freedom. I keep no companion save Damsel Democracy herself. I give no less than the entirety of my being in the service to freedom.

One thing that this game has taught me is that the lives of Humanity's present are a crumb; the lives of Humanity's future, a boundless loaf.

With this game, the fate of all humanity's children are in your hands. Do not let them fall.

Each Ministry is a fundamental pillar upon which Managed Democracy rests. T he Helldivers receive their orders from the Ministry of Defense, and I mine from the Ministry of Truth. In this way, the hands of Liberty are intertwined.

At the end of the day, Lady Liberty's calls for aid haunt my dreams.

Helldivers 2 delivers a thoroughly enjoyable experience from start to finish and is a must try for everyone! While the gameplay can feel repetitive at times, it consistently maintains the adrenaline-pumping thrill of surviving relentless enemy hordes and sometimes even our own stratagems.

The game shines both in solo play for those seeking a challenge and in co-op with friends. Personally, I've had a blast jumping into SOS missions with random players. Despite occasionally encountering less cooperative teammates, the overall experience is incredibly rewarding-working together to overcome the odds fosters a real sense of camaraderie.

I do hope future updates bring more diverse objectives to keep the gameplay fresh. That said, the developers deserve praise for their model: everything, including warbonds, can be unlocked through in-game currency, making the base game feel like a complete package. While I'd love to support the game further through DLC, their approach to fair monetization is commendable.

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.
