This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Isn't the one character who greets you when you return from a mission black? Or am I misremembering.

Oh, this is from a game?

I thought it was some random channers wet dream

Here's the game's intro

It perfectly captures the parody vibes in the game.

Over the top propaganda is oozing out of every hole of this game. It's great

Haven't played in about a year, and the intro really makes me want to fire it up again

Its Helldivers 2 apparrntly, if people don't want a link.

Helldivers. A game which applies over the top levels of sarcastic propaganda for the managed democracy of Super Earth. In the game, you play as a footsoldier (helldiver) for Super Earth. Hence, the whole culture around the game is soaked with sarcastic propaganda.

You don't play as A helldiver. You play as as many helldivers as it takes to complete the mission. They literally throw people at the problem until it stops being a problem.

Not if you're really good at the game. Then you play as the helldiver.

That's exactly the attitude that makes the Helldivers the best of the best, Son. Have you ever considered signing up to do your part to protect Super Earth?

/s (as is required to really emulate this game's feel)

More specifically shock soldiers. The SEAF are the actual grunts, Helldivers are more akin to the Trench Raiders or Stormtroopers of WW1.
