After 3 straight days of Helldivers 2 these are hitting harder.
I'm out of the loop but my friends have been wanting me to buy it. Why's it relevant to this?
It's a sardonic take on "super patriots" ala starship troopers. Lots of ingame puffery and double talk about what a great and indispensable hero the in game player is, but one of the core game mechanics is that the person you play as dies a lot on the battlefield. Each time you do, a ship fires down a new person, with a new voice and sometimes new gender that is told the same lies about being indispensable but has the exact same armor and weapon load out the previous "you" did.
I take the above to mean all the crazy but seemingly normal double speak the game does fits sovcit talk to a tee.
Yup. Even the in game tips, random things you find on the battlefield, propaganda commercials all fit the sovcit talk. No doubt in my mind these folks would be on the battlefield yelling "Freedom" .
It's also got kernel level anti cheat which is not great. I wanted to try it but that's a big no for me.
Exactly this. 6 people that I know who would enjoy this game are not buying it specifically because the kernel level fuckery.
I bought it, found out, refunded it with that as the reason and just got my money back lol. Bummer, really wanted to try it
I don't want a rootkit so I won't ever buy one
Also curious what the connection is, it just looks like a generic third person shooter
I'd wait to buy it. The servers are maxed out and it takes a while to get on.
