Just curious, as someone who hasn’t looked up much about it, does Helldivers 2 have the satirical themes as Starship Troopers, too? Or is it just about fighting bugs in space?
Oh yeah. And you need to lean it to it. Democracy and Freedom are practically deities in the game. You’ll hear young men and women shout about democracy while commiting interplanetary war crimes, and pleading for liberty to save them when one of their limbs get blown to hell.
It’s excellent. Easily worth the 40 or so bucks. The community is pretty solid, although there are a lot of whiners who complain non-stop about how they can’t solo the hardest objectives on the toughest difficulty in a game designed around 4 person co-op. Honestly, the dev has been doing a great job of making all the tools viable and rewarding under the right circumstances. I find myself trying to equip for the mission and my team instead of just take “the best meta loadout”.
Starship Troopers just got a massive viewership bump with the launch of Helldivers 2.

That summary and game trailer is beautiful and hilarious lol. It totally brings me back to Starship Troopers. I want to play it even more now lol.
Yep, it’s heavily inspired by starship troopers.
