Helldivers 2 Should Become Even More Like Starship Troopers
0Helldivers 2 channels the satire of war and propaganda that makes Starship Troopers memorable and meaningful, but it risks using them as aesthetic and little else.
The article discusses how Helldivers 2 channels the satire of war and propaganda seen in the film "Starship Troopers." It highlights how the game utilizes elements like over-the-top patriotism and dystopian militarism reminiscent of the movie. Initially, the game effectively captures the essence of Starship Troopers, presenting a tongue-in-cheek portrayal of militaristic fervor and absurdity. However, as players progress, the satire begins to lose its impact, with gameplay overshadowing the deeper commentary. The article suggests that while Helldivers 2 successfully echoes the style of Starship Troopers, it lacks the depth and resonance that made the film memorable. It concludes by recommending that the developers lean further into exploring the rich lore established in the first Helldivers game to enhance the meaning and absurdity of the sequel's narrative.
