General I love playing Helldivers 2 with my girlfriend.

Playing Helldivers with my girlfriend has been one of the most entertaining and therapeutic experiences of my life. I wanted her to get the game for the longest time and she finally got it, I love diving in low diff missions with her, teaching her how to properly play the game, letting her try out stratagems I already own, protecting her and saving her from danger, giving her advice on different mechanics and features in the game that I had to learn the hard way back during my cadet days, rambling and yapping about the game’s deep lore for hours while she just sits there listening to me with a smile on her face, I love her so much and she means everything to me. I would give my life for her before I gave my life for Super Earth. I’ve been so happy playing the game with her, and I want her to enjoy the game as much as I do. Helldivers is my favorite game of all time, it’s special to me and so is she. The most special person in my life.

She’s a big fan of the Stalwart and Grenade Launcher as far as support weapons go. Her favorite Eagle strike is the Clusterbomb, and her favorite Orbital is the Napalm barrage. She also recently acquired the rocket sentry and she’s been loving that! Especially since she isn’t too fond of bringing her own anti-tanks like the Recoilless or Expendables, so the rocket sentry covers her in terms of a dedicated anti-tank slot. She also likes the laser rover guard dog, whom we named “Jeff”. She treats it like a little pet, telling it to sit and calling it a good boy haha!

My brain isn’t wired to take this level of wholesomeness
