10/10

really really funny, I kinda suck at the actual working part, but the romances and the jokes hit hard. IMO a must buy if you like these types of games also affiliated with critical role!?!?!? a must must buy!!!

Genuinely really good game, probably one of the best in the entire franchise.

WASTE OF MONEY!
Terrible overpriced preorder with useless garbage as a reward, the exclusive preorder cutting room is ridiculus,
Terribly boring story, boring characters, meaningless choices, 2 puzzle elements (one of them being completely optional "puzzle" to get collectible), DBD generators make a cameo with the same terribly boring mechanic from the og game, runs like garbage, terribly optimised.

DONT. BUY. THIS.

Worth every cent, game has a nice touch of humor, the world has way more biomes and things to explore then I expected and with the movement given you could actually build a parkour park too, sliding into a jump into parachute into zipline is like the coolest thing ever, definitely worth checking out!

Game is really fun!!

Even though the maps are linear in design exploring every nook and cranny feels super rewarding, because you always find either a good weapon, healthstims or relics!

Spoilers!

The campaign is really fun and the PVE missions are even tied to the main campaign wich storywise is great, you aren't just random space marine doing random mission, you are actively helping progress the main story!

PvE is up until now 8 missions, wich made me question the replayability of the game, but each class has their own perk tree and the weapons also have a progression system with perk trees and diffrent versions of the weapon with upgraded stats (these weapons are seperate from the PVP)
Thanks to the Roadmap my concerns of replayability are set to rest, I cant wait for what's to come!

courage and honour brothers!

Great game, Great puzzles, this game really amazed me with it's puzzle elements, you think you have seen all puzzle elements this game has to offer, but it never stops delivering! I must say I did skip pretty much a lot of dialog options because after a while I was more interested in doing more puzzles, still though the philosophical question and ideas that are in this game are very very intruiging and definetly something for your mind to feast on!

Also only 25 hours to complete the game with all extra puzzles + collectibles and I only had to look up the solution 3 times after getting severly stuck at some puzzles is still pretty impressive, I think!

If youre thinking of buying the game. do it! This game is amazing, the comedy, the story, the gameplay! Every level is so creative and just really show that some really amazing people poured their heart into this game!

Definetly play with a controller, mouse and keyboard might is really awkward ( only weird thing ive stumble upon was that the option menu was only adjustable via mouse every other menu worked fine with controller)

SPOILER!

I've got to be honest, at the end the platforming did become really really tedious in the last level especially (meat circus) incredibly frustrating and the confussion kamikaze rats in the asylum were also really really annoying. The game is definitely old, something are jank sometimes, but other than that it still holds up!

The Devs main priority seems to limit your creativity, spam you with enemies, ragdolling and nerf every weapon that becomes "meta", not because its OP, but because all the other weapons are worthless.
It seems like roleplaying as Super Earths Iron regime, has translated to how the devs handle ruling over the players.

The climbing mechanic is absolutely terrible and terrain you think you could definitely mantle wont let you, forcing you to follow the path the devs have laid out for you, like pulling the leash of a curious dog.
Speaking of Terrain, you basically are forced to play on the ground any mountains or highground you would love to use strategically is either blocked by an invisible wall when dropping in, not climbable or if you somehow make it up a bouncy castle for any stratagem that you would like to place there.
You dont get to decide how you want to play the game, you need to follow the devs vision.

sliding still hasnt gotten any depth to it, still the most worthless feature in the game, since it ignores terrain geometry and attributes, so sliding down hill is the same as sliding on even terrain, same as sliding on ice or mud.

Still not option to wear any armour you want with any passive you want, so barely any option to express yourself with your outfit without being handicapped with terrible armour passives.
Let me use my permanently maxxed out Requisition Slips for something like assigning new passives.

Requsition slips are generally just used twice a year when a free stratagem is unlockable and the rest of the year its just sits at the 50k max. Meanwhile I bearly can get any rare samples to upgrade my ship due to the upgrade pricing making rare samples more scarce than super samples

Give me a loadout option, if I am joining a lobby I dont want to waste the hosts time switching to a new set of armour and weapons, give me quick loadouts with my own presaved weapons and armour!!!!

Other Issues I have encounterd:

-The game somehow crashes on me everytime when quitting the game from the menu (ryzen 7 7800x3D, RX 7900 XTX, 32 GB RAM)

-Enemies sometimes ignore terrain and shoot you from inside a mountain or staircase

I do like the game, and they have started to address some of these problems, but also created new ones like FOMO capes...
The idea of Helldivers incredibly genius, a story game written by the Players. The actual execution of this idea has been shaky since the first balance patch and showcased how the devs will be ruling over this game.
I want this game to succeed, but how the game is progressing I find myself more and more upset everytime I revisit it and alienating me for the game at some point probably for good.

Last time I preorder anything...I believed in starbreeze that it's worth to preorder even though I had my doubts preordering a game after I preordered Battlefield 2042... I thought the reason for a preorder is to show your support to a game and as a reward for paying extra you get something exclusive to flex... I'm really dissapointed...
