Title^

Helldivers has been on my radar for a while now and I was wondering what should I expect

Since I dropped planetside I’ve been looking for a “main game” to fill the void

All I really know is shoot bug and if you aren’t getting friendly fired to hell and back you’re playing wrong

Honestly it is a fairly complex game. I've got 60 hours in it and still don't know what's going on most of the time.

I think you're expected to spend your days browsing YouTube videos or following the devs on Twitter to even understand what's happening (like way too many modern games) but I have zero interest in that.

There's even a tutorial but it really doesn't go beyond extremely basic mechanics of the game.

"Shoot bugs" is fun for a while but eventually you want to upgrade and progress but trying to figure out how to do that is needlessly complicated.
