- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

If you can mind the obnoxious patriotic undertones, Hell Divers is actually my go to game rn. Partly hate it for the mentioned but overall, pretty decent game. I'm not a hard core gamer really (in general) but the game has grown on me and it's PvE so it's fun being able to play with others instead of being toxic.
Interested in why you call them patriotic “undertones” lol. The patriotism is overt to the point that if you miss that it’s satire you may be missing out on half of the experience of the game
I wouldn't call them undertones and its entirely satirical, unlike COD.
Definitely get that. Making fun and all that. I just wish there was an off button. lol
Fair enough, definitely depends on your taste! Just wanted to make sure anyone reading didn't think it was legit US Military propaganda lol
I'd like to second what priapus said - Helldivers is actually making fun of the type of blind patriotism you find obnoxious. It's heavily inspired by Starship Troopers which is also a comedy movie making fun of that type of obnoxious patriotism. It's all very tongue in cheek, devs aren'y actually pushing the patriotism.
I'm with you guys... and I do see that. It's just obnoxious to me, nonetheless. 🤷♂️
