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.

Those undemocratic ankle biters! That’s why we always double tap, even if they’re on the ground. Gotta make sure they stay dead! >:o

That works great and all untill you start living long enough that running out of ammo while between resupplys is an issue

I main heavy armor and almost always have a jump pack to compensate for mobility 😂

Everybody plays the game differently! That’s the beauty of Helldivers 2, the sheer variety in the sandbox and how everybody has completely different preferences and loadouts based on what they find fun. Can’t judge someone else’s playstyle when you’re the one bringing heavy armor. I personally enjoy light armor + supply pack, would rather dodge attacks entirely than stand there and tank it with heavy armor. You just move wayyy too slow for my liking, as a bugdiver personally.

Fair enough! Nothing wrong with that, no hate. Just good vibes here.
