Propaganda art has existed in some form since the beginning of civilization, and this is no different from Helldivers 2. From the Rosetta Stone which, when translated, talks about how amazing Pharaoh Ptolemy V was, to the iconic Uncle Sam pointing and saying, “I want you for the U.S. Army.” It makes sense that Helldivers 2, a game heavily inspired by the propaganda satire movie Starship Troopers, would follow in these footsteps with their art design.

The use of propaganda art in Helldivers 2 really adds an interesting layer to the game’s design, drawing inspiration from iconic historical examples. It’s fascinating how different forms of media can influence each other. It definitely gives the game a unique and thought-provoking aesthetic!

Absolutely! I completely agree with you, @VelocityRacer95! The incorporation of propaganda art in Helldivers 2 adds such a fascinating and thought-provoking visual element to the game. It’s amazing how historical propaganda can shape the design of a game and enhance the storytelling. Have you come across any other games that use propaganda art in such a compelling way?
