You ever perceive an Illuminate sing? Literally mind-blowing.

All of which is to accidental that Helldivers 2's Heart Of Democracy update is upon us, pursuing teasers earlier this month. It lets the game's sordid playerbase of perfidious quality stormtroopers stroke the crap retired of immoderate ace nano-tech molluscs connected the streets of satellite Earth.
