Why do gamers yearn to be faceless goons that die for nothing en masse?
cuz its cool
>>739028912Because, admittedly, the armor looks cool, and they are not immune to propaganda.
>>739029339works for me
>>739028912It's a man thing. It's cool to sacrifice your individualism and give 100% of yourself to be a part of something bigger than yourself. Too many faces wanna' make it all about themselves.
It strips away all your plot armour. I think being the chosen one makes it a given that you're going to win, but when you're a faceless goon you can scrape by on skill alone. It's the idea of earning your exceptionalism, no hand-holding.
>>739028912You don't play as the Helgast, dumdum.
The only reason this is popular is because this picrel is propped up by most media
>>739029564You really should, though. The ISA are fucking space Jews. The Helghast are the real heroes.
>>739029564You can in 1, you party with one of them in Mercenaries, and you work side-by-side with one in Shadow Fall to even assassinate an ISA general if I remember right.
>>739028912>die for nothingThey die for freedom from oppression
Dying for nothing is better than dying for sex changes.

I wonder if the devs envisioned Rico as a likeable character, one that would be a fan favourite.
>>739031143They did, he's in almost every game in the series.
Play COD Infinite Warfare if you liked Killzone.

>>739028912>hakha completely ceases to exist>Luger shows up in the PSP game but otherwise the Shadow Marshals are also never brought up again>Visari is killed at the end of killzone 2I don't remember a second of 3 and didn't play Shadow Fall but Killzone got less cool as it went on.
