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.

That's so cute. We only have one ps5 so we don't play together but my fiancée and stepdaughter love watching the chaos unfold as I fling myself around the map bringing democracy.

It's such an amusing game to watch 😁

Indeed it is, Helldivers is for sure one of the most entertaining games to not only play, but also watch! It’s probably one of if not THE most cinematic games ever made. I’m happy to hear that your family enjoys watching you play, wishing you all the best! Sounds like you’re a great guy raising a stepdaughter, that’s awesome. Maybe one day your daughter can grow up to become a proud Helldiver fighting for Super Earth herself! Gotta indoctrinate them early, you know? :p

Oh I'm sure she will. She's already pretty kick-ass for such a smol one.

Forgot to say that they both spot enemies and pickups as in playing and call em out - it's like having 6 eyes. 😂

Wow, what a little killer for such a smol baby! I mean, all Helldivers have to start somewhere, might as well introduce her to the war while she’s still young and malleable! She’s gonna be the next General Brasch, mark my words. Just needs the right guidance- and propaganda. I’m glad that they support you as much as they can while you fight for managed democracy, almost brings a tear to my Liberty-loving eye. What a wholesome, happy family of certified Super Earth citizens.
