    Been putting hours into Helldivers 2. What a fantastic game, I think my first live service game i've bought. The gameplay loop with killing the bugs feels exactly like what it would be like in the movie Aliens. Not much of a fan of the automatons, takes a lot of headshots to kill them quickly but it's not that big of a deal unless you get overrun with multiple chainsaw wielding bots.

    The game is a master class on how video games need to be. I'm having an absolute blast, im about 40 hours in and just got to act 2. What a freakin game. I'm not surprised other companies are scared. Put your game for early access three years before release with a lot of community feedback and you get yourself what could be the greatest pc game of all time. I know it's I think #1 pc game of all time metacritic

    I've been trying to clean up my act for a while. Sorry for treating tildes like reddit sometimes. I won't just provide noise anymore. Deleted a lot of comments that were probably marked as noise. I know you mentioned this back in 2018 only because I looked at my messages. Literally no memory of that. It is very scary for stuff like this to happen. I've never been arrested or anything and it just makes me scared shit like this goes on when I'm just drinking.

    Thanks. I hope you work on your drinking. I've seen you mention it as an issue multiple times, and it really does seem to be causing problems for you.

    the last message before i left

    Please try to make an effort to only post comments when you have something to contribute to a discussion. A large portion of your comments are being (rightfully) labeled as Noise.

    Update the title maybe the link also? I know it was still "Breaking" and flashing at the top of NBC news when I first posted.
