It is no secret Helldivers 2 has proven to be one of 2024’s (and gaming’s) biggest hits. Hundreds of thousands of players clock in daily to kill some bugs and bots. However, one player claims the game is so popular it “took over” their hometown—even the butcher’s shops.
Reddit user Kaleon shared their story of Helldivers 2‘s popularity in an April 24 thread, where they claimed the game has completely taken over their real-life town. Everywhere they went, they heard of Super Earth’s greatness, including butcher’s shops, bars, and dog walkers passing by. They even claim they saw bumper stickers on a few cars, which goes to show just how powerful the magnetism of Managed Democracy truly is.
