Helldivers kind of subverts this though as underneath the militaristic drip most Helldivers are trying to do the right thing and defend the innocent, but are ultimately dependent on a government so evil it undoes most of their progress with its own ineptitude.

unfortunately the message of HD2 is that you can't let it become too late for anyone to do anything.

Despite the fuckups along the way by now irrelevant/dead characters in the backstory, the Terran Republic are the closest thing to "good guys" (ie least bad, they're just trying to hold things together while the other two factions want everything for themselves) in the fucked up three way war, but their motif is the baddest looking of the lot.

Not 100% relevant but I remember playing this RTS called Rising Kingdoms which had 3 factions, Darklings, Humans and Foresters and surprisingly the foresters are unrepentingly evil savages, the Darklings (Who look like demons) noble people trying to save the world and the humans right in the middle. As a kid always thought it was weird, like an inverse of WC3.

Anon the good guys are explicitly jackboot tyrants in Halo. The Spartans were made specifically to stomp out rebellious colonies and lucked into getting to use them for ayy wars. They're not gears of war bad but they're the good guys for the same reason helldivers are the good guys: because the preservation of mankind is more important than ayys and the average marine is still just a 19 year old kid serving his country and having a time with his buddies.

I mean most factions looks cool but you don’t really get to decides who are the good guys. Most of the time it’s a clear bad guy vs good guy dichotomy. The good guys are flawed but the bad guys rarely have redeeming qualities especially in Fallout 2

The synth armor is atrocious, I don't understand how come Bethesda even approved this final design. It doesn't look cool, it doesn't look high-tech, it doesn't look functional, what were they even aiming for with this?
The concept art is fine, it's not sensational, but it's alright

good guys: practical, resourceful, getting the job done because they have to
bad guys: vain, shallow need to appear cool

lol no, they had already spent years stomping out colonies to the point where they were already 2 generations of spartans around, combat ready, before they ever found the covenant. The cosmic joke is that the shit that all of humanity hated and loathed became heroes of the next war due to sheer luck

>>713410591

>>713402406
I enjoyed the Carmine gag and was glad to see a payoff.

>>713410906
That Bethesda has people who've apparently never seen a gun, design a bunch of them? Would it have been so difficult to get a gunsmith on staff as an actual consultant to design their fictional guns?

Bethesda doesn’t like to listen to criticism and act on that part. It’s why they have the same shitty writers ever since Oblivion despite how people have been calling the writing weak for every game they make

>>713411394

No need to stand anon, you're 100% on the right side.

>>713411581
On retrospect I sound kinda retarded when put that way. But Bethesda could have just simply called the weapon "Light Machinegun" and model Combat Rifle to look more like an actual AR.

>>713402234
What game?

>>713411627
We're talking Bethesda here, they are allergic to putting hard restrictions on what the player can and can't do in their games. If you had a class of weaponry that was only usable while in power armor, they would immediately remove that requirement. Even though FO4 gives you power armor within the first hour of gameplay. If they were going to do that, might as well double down on power armor customization down to even weapon classes have power armor only weaponry.

That's because it was. The Chinese assrifle from FO3 was the intended standard rifle and is half-finished in the game's files, it got cut and the LMG demoted to assrifle because there were "too many" guns. Todd is hack.

I do think it's ironic that one of the things the artist did to make the good guys look dumb is put them in short shorts, considering that there's a substantial part of the internet that fellates the rhodie army wearing the booty shorts.

Those civilian lives wouldn't even be in danger of it wasn't for super earth. The bugs in the first game were largely peaceful and even sapient, the cyborgs just wanted to be left alone, and the illuminate were a peaceful race that wanted super earth to stop being so authoritarian. If HD1 is super earth fucking around, HD2 is super earth finding out. Not only that, but those civilians are treated as a disposable resource to fuel the war economy. Super earth couldn't give less of a fuck about the average life of a person.

I love the NCR trooper uniform. It looks like something that could potentially be mass produced in the basic government/infrastructure of the NCR. It's not 'modern' by any stretch but it's half decent.

Legion is both cool and retarded. Legion's glownigger operations are kinos and some of the most memorable parts of the game regardless of faction chosen.
I think the legion roaming death squads and assassination attempts get completely fucked by the game requiring you to walk past specific objects for them to generate and spawn rather than having them stalk you from afar and pull off actual tactical strikes.
Legion's dumbass football and dinner plate gear make a lot more sense when you're only seeing them for a few seconds before they're throwing explosives and blasting you with high tier smgs and assault rifles. They just end up being goofy as fuck when they need to run up to you, tell you you've been a bad boy, and then take aim on you.

>>713412836

>>713428524
They're good as a faction, being so hyper aggressive in their infiltration and sabotage, it's just their fashion is so bad and goofy.
I don't mind the roman motif, I think it even works occasionally with stuff like the Legate being appropriate for early Fallout giant faces art deco stuff - but this should've been the standard, not the outlier. The Legion looking creepy and dangerous would've been way more appealing than the moron sports gear, that look belongs on one of the crackhead bandit tribes.

It's part of the WW2 zeitgeist. American troopers looked like hillbilly retards with their big goofy helmets but they still kicked the sharp-dressed cool nazis back into the sewers. And videogames naturaly glorify this since if the nazis won there'd be no videogames and you'd either be dying in a concentration camp or getting worked to death in a factory.

>>713413706
Only a fucking moron wouldn't. If you think the Imperium is evil within the context of the world it finds itself in, you are incapable of looking at cause and effect. Half the reason humanity hates xenos is because the lot of them willingly or cowardly watched as early humanity was nearly snuffed from the stars and made extinct, many of them wanting to easily lap up the power gap that would have been created. Then there's the entire thing with Chaos, the Tyranids who wish to consume all biomass, the Necrons who want all flesh in the galaxy but for more selfish reasons beyond baser instincts, the Eldar who are just the worst aspects of every Tumblr DnD character (self-absorbed degenerates who think they're better than you at everything), and finally the Tau, who are ardent expansionists with no respect for any borders who will put you into indentured slavery and call this an improvement.

I was actually pretty disappointed that Super Earth "won" the whole Illuminate thing (because clearly the devs weren't going to let the Helldivers lose) because I think it would have lead to a cooler story about a shitty regime getting what's coming to them.
Personally I'm holding out hope that they make a new faction that is just Human separatists that actually care about freedom and liberty and their battle cries aren't just lip service.

The devs definitely didn’t railroad the super earth defense, 90% of the playerbase was playing super earth all the time, no MO could fail under those conditions. The devs fuck over the playerbase more often than help, I can think of them helping all of once because they set the murder rate way too high to ever be accomplished.

Media literacy retards keep trying to make their protagonist faction evil to be hecking deep, but pit them against forces and consequences that justify all of the protagonists evil actions. Anybody who burbles about media literacy just can't differentiate between fiction and reality and is seeing whoever it is they're crying about as whatever real world group that makes them fart and cry.
Trench Crusade is a perfect example. Imagine being such an unrecoverable fedora tipper that you look at a setting where literal demons are actively trying to drag all of humanity into hell to make them suffer unimaginable pain forever forever for no reason other then a bruised ego, and the only thing stopping them is literal God taking an active overt role in the world, and deciding that God isn't the good guy in all this.

The imperium is fucking evil even within the context of it's setting. The shit it does on the regular to it's own people is more often than not completely unnecessary and unreasonable, and born out of ignorance, dogma and just incompetence. And half of the reason why the galaxy is so hostile to humanity is because the Emperor, in his autistic, xenocidal crusade exterminated most peaceful alien races and the only ones that remained were the ones the nascent imperium was incapable of eradicating.

Both the Tau and the Craftworld Eldar, whom you lambast, treat humans better than the Imperium itself does, neither has a go to policy of genociding any humans they encounter, even the most hardline of the CWE, the Biel-Tan, tend to give human civilians the courtesy of warning to fuck off from their maiden worlds before attacking, whereas the Imperium goes out of it's way to kill all aliens it encounters as a matter of principle. The imperium is the cause of like half of the problems it faces, and it continues to create more problems because it is ran by dogmatic zealots that are inculcated against critical thinking or questioning their dogma.

>>713444941
Everything humanity does is justified if misguided in the methods in which it chooses to do so. Sacrificing thousands of psykers to the Emperor's Corpse is done because he's the shining light that allows humanity to even move through the Warp at all. They have no possible way of knowing he'll simply resurrect if allowed to actually die.

This is your headcanon. GW has been quite explicit about how the imperium is as much at fault for it's state of decilne and how so much of why shit has gone bad is just due to stupidity, dogma and ignorance. Both the cult mechanicus as well as the ecclesiarchy have retarded the thinking of humanity within the imperium to a point where it is fundamentally incapable of reversing the ongoing state of collapse it is in. Most of the fucking tech the imperials use is basically black box shit, that not even the admech truly understands. The imperium is a fucking shitshow.

With the way GW rebooted the squats as an offshoot of Dark Age of Technology humanity, that still actually fucking understands how their shit works and is capable of innovation and technological advancement, there finally is a window of a "what if" alternative for what humans could have been had the emperor not fucked up so massively and led humanity down the path of complete pants on head retardation.
