The ongoing Galactic War has been fascinating to not only watch unfold in Helldivers 2 but also participate in. Each major order allows players to absorb themselves in the narrative, however loose and uninvolved it may be for the most part, and the degree of immersion in Helldivers 2 is palpable when players are alongside their avatar and their squadmates at any given moment. So much of that experience is aboard players ships, even, and while ships are virtually identical to one another it can be neat knowing Helldivers are all collaborating in the fight for managed democracy together.
