Helldivers 2 is and has always been one big parody of itself narrative wise, with Arrowhead playing into the absurdity that comes with all of its Starship Troopers-esque declarations of patriotic fervour. The game’s community has bought into this in pretty hilarious roleplaying style plenty of times, but its latest instance might be the most unexpected yet.
First of all, you’ve no doubt heard about the whole backlash that’s been going on to some of the the Escalation of Freedom update’s balancing changes, which Arrowhead’s now issued a whole plan in response to.
