TL;DR Summary

Helldivers 2 combines great gameplay with a meta-narrative of Super Earth propaganda, highlighting the folly of an oppressive regime while delivering commentary and world-building. The game's constant propaganda, delivered with gusto, reveals the players as the "baddies," and the satire of the campaign provides a breath of fresh air in the gaming world. Despite the immoral mission and government, the game's silly satire and iconic moments make it a fun and ridiculous roller coaster ride.
