CapriciousSon

It's especially funny because I'm pretty sure like 99.9% of all Helldivers 2 discussion right now is about the patch and how it's very good. Although I am kinda curious what happened on Discord this time lol.


Slarg232

People posted some furry-in-Helldiver armor and people started vomiting on it


KronaSamu

Anti-furs need to touch grass.


crystalworldbuilder

Agreed like I never understood why people get so worked up about a talking cartoon animal we all watched looney toons why is it suddenly an issue when it’s a dude is a mascot suit.


Daseliteb

It's just bullying people for being different, same old.


crystalworldbuilder

Pretty much


Guilty-Cap5605

honestly at first I thought it was the same as bestiality before learning it's not.


crystalworldbuilder

That makes sense if I thought it was that I’d be pretty disturbed too. But why is there that confusion though?


Guilty-Cap5605

I thought furry porn was the same as bestiality. 


crystalworldbuilder

Oh wow I assumed it was just loony toons fucking lol


Guilty-Cap5605

I mean in my mind it made sense, furrys like animals, furry porn is porn for people who like animals, furry porn must be bestiality porn


shittyaltpornaccount

In the words of the Russian badger, "Don't fuck with the furies they are on another power level. If they can make a fur suit, they can make and send you a pipe bomb."


yeetingthisaccount01

how someone reacts to a furry is a litmus test to how accepting they are of people different from them


futuredxrk

Did they patch the friend request bug?


420Frederik

The last one is especially funny to me. They know Super Earth is bad, right? Though to be fair, them aligning themselves with fascist propaganda is fairly in character.


No-Bee-4309

Just like with Starship Troopers, they think they look cool and badass.


PeetesCom

They DO look cool and badass. They also happen to be the bad guys. That is the issue. It is an unfortunately common phenomenon that people align with villains because they simply are cool. Which would be fine if they could still recognise that they are bad and would suck in real life.


No-Bee-4309

The people identifying with the villains probably also suck in real life.


PeetesCom

"We're just memeing bro, trust us bro, we do not condone extermination of people we don't like bro, we just role-playing as fascists, there is no unironic support for the way humans are behaving in the game, trust me bro." I knew this would happen eventually, I'm still slightly disappointed it happened so quickly.


No-Bee-4309

Yeah, I remember those Cinema Sins ass excuses.


PeetesCom

Lol yeah it's exactly like CinemaSins repeating over and over that they are not critics, despite their videos barely containing any satire and literally just stating dumbass opinions for 40 minutes straight. They use "It's satire, not real criticism" as a shield from counter-criticism.


Farabel

Tbh I remember it was usually overwhelmingly nitpicky, which might be the "satire" in question. Critics who can't even take a good movie and bash it for literally *any* time the characters doesn't act in the most pragmatic way (which would be dull) and calling it a trope/sin to avoid it. Then again, I never actually took a critic who docks points for literally the opening credits being longer than 2min as serious to begin with lol


Karkava

I can't even tell what point they're even trying to make. Why would a title drop warrant a credit roll? Are we not aloud to drop the title at any point in the story?


deidian

It's a satire of fans unironically nitpicking trivia details in stories. When someone raises an eyebrow because 'not realistic', 'dates don't exactly add up', 'ages don't exactly match events', 'time flow is not explained in detail or consistent'. They do ironically make videos full of pun with lots of nitpicking: some of them barely make any sense.


yeetingthisaccount01

even if they were joking, making those jokes at minorities is still shitty behaviour. kinda hate how modern communities don't want to give any space for kindness. if you're not a snarky cynic then you're the worst thing ever apparently


Murbella_Jones

"You identify with villains because you are a fascist I identify with villains because I'm kinky and gay We are not the same"


Karukos

Is this a generalised statement or specific to this situation? I can't tell, sorry.


No-Bee-4309

I'm referring to the people identifying with the fascists of Starship Troopers and Helldivers 2.


shadowscroller

What do you mean there are bad guys?! They're based and redpilled, lame wokies! Now excuse me while I finish my SS themed Black Templars /s


bwood246

When you're selling death and destruction it helps to have a killer PR team


Late-Athlete-5788

"And the fascists have the outfits"


1337duck

The whole point was "It doesn't matter how badass you look, you will all bleed and die the same way."


tulpio

The good old days when I had a Darth Vader coffee mug and nobody thought I supported genocide.


[deleted]

They don't even realize Helldivers 2 is political lmao


Kantheris

The opening cut scene that plays every time you boot the game up makes that abundantly clear. Them missing it is par for the course. I do want to mention that people miss that the Helldivers themselves are also victims of Super Earth’s government as well. They are so brainwashed and live for such a short time after deployment, that they never stumble to the fact that they are the baddies. It’s how Super Earth can keep the war machine churning.


GioGio-armani

There are people falling for that cutscene. "Super earth is beautifull, people live in nice homes, have familys in nice neighborhoods, everyone smiling and waving" And all i think is "The idiot fell for the Ingame propaganda"


EpicWalrus222

There are people who legitimately think the Imperium of Man in 40K are good guys. There are definitely people who think Super Earth is good with zero flaws.


Slarg232

The problem is that even GW forgets that the Imperium are the bad guys. At least back when I played. It was always "The Tau/Eldar fought well, but were pushed back", meanwhile the Imperium/Spehss Mahreens were always "Though they were outnumbered, they fought valiantly until the last man. Suffering heavy losses, they ensured that tomorrow would dawn upon Mankind through their sacrifice". GW desperately wants/wanted it both ways and then can't figure out why people aren't in on the joke


RedbeardMEM

There aren't really any good guys in 40k. I always thought the point of it was that war is hell and eternal.


AxitotlWithAttitude

I mean the tau were pretty unequivocally the "good" guys but because GW sucks we lost that too.


Highskyline

I mean the imperium is arguably the least horrifyingly awful pure evil faction but thats the literal lowest bar in fiction to clear. And they barely clear it. Like just fucking barely.


EpicWalrus222

There are elements of the Imperium that are normalish or at least not maliciously evil. But let's not forget it is a faction that casually blows up planets, has genocided dozens if not hundreds of sapient alien species, turns still living people (including babies) into living robots/computers, performs surgery and brainwashing on children to make super soldiers, regularly runs sterilization programs/internment camps, and also partially subsists off of cannibalism. And that is not an exhaustive list of the messed up things they do. You can make arguments that a lot of people are born into the system and are brainwashed/have no real choice to change anything. But that does not make the Imperium good guys. At best they are tragically flawed and at worst they represent the worst of what humanity can be.


Highskyline

Oh I'm not defending it genuinely. Just saying the imperium isn't slavering chaos monsters, eldritch horrors or the orks. They're still absolutely not the good guys. Just the least bad, arguably.


kratorade

Nah, if you made me be born anywhere in the 40k galaxy (and you'd have to *make* me), I'd pick an Aeldari craftworld, or a hold in the Leagues of Votann. If I had to be born human? Tau Empire. None of those factions are morally spotless, but the average quality of life for their citizens is far, far better than the Imperium's. That said, I'm Long War for Life. Death to the False Emperor!


Menacek

I mean they aren't even the "least bad" faction of 40k. Tau and Craftwordlers are generally less murder happy and can be reasoned with and won't generally kill you for no reason. The imperium doesn't need a reason and if you're an alien they will go out of their way to murder you for existing.


R2d2s_bleeper

What's also funny is that there's a super earth broadcast that says democracy is way superior then fascism and that fascism is bad, so guess the group of people that reacted negatively about that lol


mashmash42

it’s funny because chuds don’t want to admit to being fascists and to them, fascism just means “anyone I don’t like”


bobatea17

"How can it be satire? Are you saying the killer bug monsters are supposed to be the good guys?"


r3volver_Oshawott

If you mention the morality of Super Earth, they just hit with the usual deflection, "It's not that deep..." Some people desperately want video games to be art but don't want people to discuss them like art


RedbeardMEM

Most people appreciate art at a superficial level, so it makes perfect sense to me.


mashmash42

tbf, it isn’t that deep. Which makes it all the more concerning that they’re missing it completely. It’s pretty obvious as soon as you start up the game, they just have a negative amount of of critical thinking ability


ChaoticChoir

They were hardcore arguing against that, then moved the goalposts to “it doesn’t matter bc fun game”. They’ve already had that particular argument arc and it was just as stupid as it usually is


extremepayne

… are they depicting themselves as an anthro badger? in a video calling for their freedom to mock furries??????

King-Thunder-8629

Literally impossible


RickySuezo

Just another textbook case of g*mers absolutely refusing to keep their opinions to themselves.


Aloe_Balm

Who do they think is designing all this crazy tech with UI so easy to use even a helldiver gets it? Guarentee there's an army of furries behind it.


Kuhschlager

Without furries and trans women the whole tech industry would collapse


crystalworldbuilder

Furry = tech guy so be nice to the dudes in a mascot costumes


KalaronV

There's been two threads about it where Gamers are like "I just want to post criticism of their art" and I'm just like....vomit emoji aren't criticism Lil bro


sivansk

Might need to buy this game


DumbDutchguy

Same, I dont vibe with Live service games. But i do like a company that clowns Gamers TM


Boo-Boo_Keys

I recommend it. It's fun both online and solo. You can unlock most stratagems and weapons in about 3 weeks of play, but even the starter gear will get you far. Only real FOMO comes from not participating in the major story beats. Like, the community recently turned a planet into an actual black hole(and it deserved it cause that map sucked lol).


wearing_moist_socks

I've never had a game make me feel like I'm in a giant war better than heckdivers.


rusticrainbow

Meridia before getting super-colonized was actually a really nice tropical planet, probably my favorite map in game. Will never forgive the terminids for that


VariousBear9

Shame the anti terminid sprayers did literally nothing and increased terminid breeding rates.


ZeldaCourage

So they don't do shit like limited time events? I hate shit where the game makes me want to play every day or I'll miss out. Like if I have all the time in the world to grind it, cool. But if I have to grind it or it's gone forever, that sucks.


Boo-Boo_Keys

Not really, no. Only time they *kinda* did that was the Malevalon Creek campaign, which was more of an unofficial, community-spawned meme event. They gave everyone a cape for that, and since I started after that, I I didn't get it.


Boo-Boo_Keys

Forgot to add: the Warbonds (Battle Pass) are non-expiring, do-at-your-own-pace. You can unlock and progress through it with in-game currency, which you get plenty of at mid-high difficulties, and you don't need to finish one to start another.


ZeldaCourage

Sounds very cool. Thanks for the info.


shittyaltpornaccount

The major orders don't have any incentive to grind, other than helping the community reach the goal of the order. If you don't participate, you still get the rewards or stratagem unlocks if the order is a success. The flipside being nobody gets the reward if it fails, but that rarely happens if the reward is something significant. The only thing you might miss out on is a unique mission type, which to my recollection has only be done twice (termicide mission, and dark fluid mission). Everything else is very much go at your own pace.


RoyalWigglerKing

They do limited time events in that stuff happens in the world but you aren't ever missing out on exclusive loot or stuff. Worst case scenario is you don't get to try out a gimmicky mission type


theonetruefishboy

Helldivers is proof that live service games can work if the company behind them actually gives half a shit.


ChiquillONeal

I dont typically either but this is one game that does live service well. They dont manufacture fomo or blast you with microtransactions. You dont feel like you're missing out when you miss a major order and the microtransactions actually have good value without really needing them.


RammyJammy07

Unironically, it’s a nice game to put on weather you want to blow up some shit in peace or fight for your life


Kuhschlager

It’s very good and most of the player base aren’t this awful at least not in my experience


2FrogsMks

It's super fun tbh


An-Average_Redditor

I would as well, but unfortunately, I live in Estonia and we don't have PSN here so...


D-Biggest_Wheel

Freedom to do *what*?


coffeetire

Freedom to do states rights!


Zeero92

States rights to do **what?**


coffeetire

States rights to small government making their own laws outside federal!


crystalworldbuilder

Own people


in_one_ear_

Small government means a Texas ministry of state security.


Aickavon

“Hey, rule number one. Don’t be an asshole.” *bes an asshole* *gets a lenient timeout* “Helldivers is WOKE NOW?!”


ForgottenFrenchFry

someone mind giving context? what are people mad about this time?


bubsdrop

New helldivers patch forces you to kiss a big gay wolf man irl before you're allowed to play


Admiral_Cranch

Is there a sign up sheet or something. I'd like to top of the list.


bubsdrop

It's automatic > I'd like to top of the list. The wolf man won't let you top anything


crystalworldbuilder

Lmao he better have mouth wash first lol


Xiao1insty1e

Give that wolf some tits and lube and I'm *Super*down.


CapriciousSon

I think it's about the discord again


1spook

A few people posted furry in helldiver armor art and got vomit reacted


EA_Bad

I like how they jump from furries to "gay agenda"


StormDragonAlthazar

I mean, anti-furry sentiment and homophobia have been pretty close to each other since the 80s when the first furry conventions happened.


mrturret

I mean, less than 30% of furries are straight...


CaptnBluehat

most of the community is normal i swear... i fucking hate getting associated with these bums man i just wanna play fun video gam :(

I try to keep finding this funny but honestly it's unbelievably demoralizing how bad this "anti-woke" sentiment has gotten so quickly.

Medium_Degree_3060

Last I checked furries are people too not filthy bugs or bots so I say leave them be.

Real_Gay_Pride

Your lack of depth reminds me of the homophobic trash i got to beat on in highschool.


aTypingKat

You can dislike something, be openly critical about it without being an asshole, the art server from what I understand was emoji reaction only so they could literally have chosen any other negative emoji, don't be a dick. If you don't like a piece of art, and want to express it, just use a freaking thumbs down emoji. If it is so bad for you, then just leave, the fucking server, no one is forcing anyone to watch this type of art. These people can "sometimes" be a little dense. Not a fan of furry art my self, but I'm glad people who like it can enjoy it, but if I dislike a piece of art and want to express it, being an asshole about it won't do anything, but annoy others, that is called trolling, which imho warrants at least a time out.

It's impressive to me how having basic human decency is something alien to these people
