Disclaimer: haven’t played the game, just interested since I saw people comparing it to Starship Troopers.

Yes, the CCP and DPRK are just like the war obsessed SEAF whereas the US who has been in some kind of war for its whole existence is just like uhhhh the pacifist Illuminate?

Like the parallel is staring you in the face - China and the US “ostensibly compete for space and resources”, but which one is constantly at war to reach those ends?

Not even the most dunk-worthy comment either, this one just annoyed me by drawing me into a wall of text and then pulling out this turd half way through.

    Also, it’s all but said in the first game that Super Earth attacks the Illuminate because they want to steal their technology

    They attack the Cyborgs for ideological reasons and they attack the Terminids because they turn their corpses into a substance called E-710 (Oil) that they use as fuel

    With the fact that Super Earthicans are constantly shouting about Freedom and Democracy, they are very clearly USAans
