I liked the game from my first minutes in and just based on my gameplay I definately recommend it to everyone. Like stated above the gameplay and everything around it is awesome and I have lots of fun. Love the whole story and basically world wide scale D&D we have going on. So much so that I even created and played a custom Helldiver's playthrough in Stellaris, but enough of random side facts.
Doesn't matter if it is fighting the bugs or the bots. Both sides offer unique strategies and gameplay with multiple main and side objectives during missions to do and fight through the hordes of various enemies of democracy. Personally I mainly fight the Automaton threat, but don't hesitate to deliver 500kg of freedom against the Terminid hordes should it be needed.
However the game already puts you at risk just having it installed due to it using Kernel level Anti-Cheat. For those who don't know, Kernel level Anti-Cheats have access to you pc on a full level. Meaning it has access both software and hardware based on your entire system. It doesn't stop cheating as there is no silver bullet against that and is absolutely not needed to detect cheaters. In short, if the Anti-Cheat itself ever gets hacked all us Helldiver's are going to be in trouble, unless you run a dedicated secondary machine.

It's time to increase our Democracy per second, helldiver!
