What draws gamers to this aesthetic?

>>725316092 (OP)
They are racist and want to look like nazis

>>725316092 (OP)
Would you rather look like a soft, delicate pink baby? Or a badass walking tank? I know my answer.

>>725316384
it's always the chuddies

>>725316640
Both

its the homoerotical subconscious that yearns for depersonalization and being a faceless goon who's only purpose is to serve. All men have this, but not all can contain it.

every white man has a secret desire to be part of a death squad fighting for a righteous cause

Unironically this.

>>725316092 (OP)
hell yeah

>>725316092 (OP)
Killzone could literally have been a top Sony franchise if these faggots only embraced the Helghast being the good guys instead of the ISA.

>>725316092 (OP)
Cool factor

>>725316092 (OP)
because the alternative looks boring and shit

It signals competence.

>>725318323
That's the problem.
If Helghast are the bad guys at least you get to look at them for the whole game. ISA are fucking boring and lame regardless of which side you are on.

>>725318323
Helghast literally were the good guys which made the whole series weird as fuck because everyone knew it but were forced to ignore it.

>>725317498
I love lady hunk

>>725316092 (OP)
I've been using the Hellghast helmet in HD2 since it came out. It's a kino aesthetic.

>>725318729
You're seeing the same with Russia and you saw the same with France and Germany.
But they attacked instead of being bullied with soft power so they're le bad.

>>725318323
Helghast did nothing wrong and i'm genuinely not trying to be edgy. They did nothing wrong and their plight and motivation was fare more relatable.

>>725318874
There's a lot of chuddy helmets to pick from.

>>725319230
herm, Ameribros are we the baddies?

>>725319446
yes

Looking like Stardolf is based desu

>>725319230
Yeah but I want a proper Killzone game where you play as the Hellghast, so I use that helmet.

>>725319126

this.

>lose a trade war
>the winning corporation takes over the government and banishes the losers to a toxic wasteland covered in radiation.
>somehow against all odds they survive

>hey these mutated prisoners are trying to unionize. go kill them!!!

>>725319742
cool it with the anti-ISAtism

in my opinion some of the coolest armor sets are the "masked tacticool" asthetic

the desire to be an npc.

>>725319742
>tfw still no game where you fight on helghasts side
its literally leaving money on the table. dumb motherfuckers

There's a section of the population alive today that actually believe cool looking armor is fascism. It's why we have games right now coming out that have armors that look like they were collected from toy stores.

>>725316092 (OP)
women need the character to look like them so they can self insert
men need the character to have a cool helmet/mask so they can self insert

>>725318323
still amazes me they dropped killzone for gay robo dinosaurs

>>725322610
Why? It was way more successful right out of the gate.

>>725316092 (OP)
They crave being united in righteous fury.
Cool nameless soldier is how you achieve that feeling.

I fucking hate people who post this shit; they are not fans of anything, just mindless slop consumers of a certain kind of aesthetic.
Go actually fucking watch Oshii's Red Spectacles and stop aesthetic posting like a retard

Replace the helmet with a hood and now we're talking

>>725316384
Or they're edgy dorks that love Sid from Slip Knot and have no idea that the aesthetic ties back to nazi shit.

>>725324671
Niga, who?
No one gives a shit about your industry plant metal-pop collective.

Men are slaves of progress yes. Men are nothing but a means to an end and if he is distinguished than he is only slave to nature, nature of idealism and conquest

the faceless man
stoic, devoid of emotion
inhuman.

the gas mask just does that so well, it's just peak when done right what can I say?

>>725317860
You are 100% correct.

>>725316092 (OP)
I enjoy playing the faceless nobody

>>725324671
>Sid from Slip Knot
For me it's Pinhead Larry. That madlad would always go ballistic on the drums.

>>725322610
I hate Horizon but Killzone was floundering. Nobody bought Shadowfall or whatever the PS4 one was called.

>>725316384
>WW1 soldiers
>nazis

I see it and think Hel Ghast

>>725325425
>Nobody bought Shadowfall or whatever the PS4 one was called.
Yeah probably because it was the 5th game where you play as the ISGay again. Little Bald Riding Hood is mediocre when you already had Hakha from the early days played by Alfred.

>>725316092 (OP)
I like gas masks. They look cool. But I like "Faceless" or featureless characters anyway. It's why I always played as Tensor in UT.

>>725316384
Have tou considered that the nazis used the look because it's cool and not that the look is cool because the nazis used it

>>725326032
Cool is a dogwhistle for nazi coded propaganda these days like Hyperborean, Argartha and human rights.

>>725325425
That would have been remedied if they just made a game where you played as the Hellghast and it had good multiplayer modes.

>>725325794
>>725322396
>>725324036

i feel like this is part of why Dark Souls games are so popular. You just pick the coolest blank face helmet to self-insert on.

>>725326362
I have no mask aperture and i must consume many eggs

>>725324671
for me, its portal

>>725316092 (OP)
hell yeah

Men will mock Barbie Doll Fashion House, but give him a game where he can be a faceless super soldier and suddenly he turns into a premier fashion designer.

>No bitch, that chokebold blue is so last conflict. It's all about the redemption red with the contempt of darkness black and godhood gold, makes it pop pop pop.

>Execute people who dont want to fight in a war
>Those who helped opress tyhe people are the new leadership (Thats why so much of the high command had hair was due to their lack of exposure to Helgans natural atmosphere whyile the common Helghan is balding due to their exposure to the chemicals
>executes innocent civilians for some shit that happened 100 years ago
>Treats half helghans as subhumans
Uh huh

>>725327176
>Helghast nobility still kept their hair because of wealth, status and rejuvenation treatments from Vekta despite the society wide blockade
>average hig is a buddhist monk looking motherfucker with the occasional prosthetic feet due to rampant mutation

>>725325425
The entire premise of the story in that game was an extremely retarded one. Also yet again Helghast bad, ISA good and did nothing wrong when they clearly do everything wrong.

>>725316384
I like the gas mask+helmet combo the same way I like plague doctors
I don't think nazis was a thing in the 1600s

>>725327141
nah barbie doll is just small time, so we skip over it. fashion design was always mens domain.

>>725327141
>Men will mock Barbie Doll Fashion House
Real men know the truth. https://youtu.be/CQoIh4VUB9s

>>725316384
No, he asked about gamers, not trannies.

I like it because it hides the human behind the mask. Less human and you can look cool and menacing.

Helmets are fucking cool bros

Is there such a thing as an uncool mask/helmet?

>>725330456
You can always count on 343 industries to be fucking retarded

>>725316092 (OP)
Human bodies are dex/con maxxed but they're quite ugly. The general shape is good, but the texture isn't.

>>725316092 (OP)
>not wearing a helmet into battle
Imagine how much better these guys would look if they just wore helmets like that.

>>725327141
Men like fashion when it serves a purpose. To designate rank, to inspire, or to induce fear, or to mark a history of when and where the person has been. Fashion for the sake of fashion is empty.
