    As someone who fought the illuminates in HD1. I always felt that for all the advancements they have, the illuminate always felt kinda cult like. It was bad enough that they shoot lightning and that were blue. But they also took in Super earth traitors. I would love to see those bottom feeding cultist squids come back. I really do as I have a score to settle with them. Them becoming more desperate cultists wont stop me from blasting them with a bomb.

    Put bluntly, I find it very hard to believe that Super Earth actually defeated The Illuminate during the First Galactic War. We know for a fact that we defeated the Terminids and put them in the Element-710 Farms and we also know for a fact we defeated the Cyborgs given the state of Cyberstan. What happened to The Illuminate though? They just vanished? That's not like Super Earth at all.
    So, what really happened?
    I suspect that after defeating the Terminids and the Cyborgs, Super Earth was out of steam and conflict with The Illuminate had ground to a stalemate. The Illuminate undeniably had superior technology and likely did not commit their entire force to the conflict for reasons unknown. How could a diminished Super Earth have won?
    Here's what The Ministry Of Truth really does not want anyone to know...
    We did not defeat them, we instead brokered a truce with them. Super Earth lied to their citizens so to not lose face.
    I strongly suspect that the Dark Fluid we used on Meridia was not "liberated" from The Illuminate, it was a peace offering from them to Super Earth. Dark Fluid was never meant to be used as a weapon, it was meant to be used by Super Earth as a renewable energy source for the FTL systems, which is also technology we "liberated" from The Illuminate; likely another lie. Prior to the FTL Super Earth was using Alcubierre Drives on their ships, which we still use for shorter duration jumps around planetary orbits.
    Why did The Illuminate do this though?
    Why didn't they wipe out a weary Super Earth when they could have?
    I think the answer lies in their culture. The Illuminate are a naturally pacifist people and are deeply religious. They chose to give us the benefit of the doubt and gave us the means to pursue a less aggressive way.
    However… pacificism is seldom profitable, neither is a renewable energy source as opposed to Element-710.
    This will all come to a head now that Super Earth succeeded in collapsing Meridia into a black hole using a weaponised version of the same Dark Fluid given as a peace offering and gesture of faith. I think upon seeing what Super Earth has done The Illuminate will return, this time in full force, with the express goal of subduing Super Earth. There is no way that they will allow Super Earth to retain the ability to collapse planets and potentially shatter space-time, especially when they also have to share the blame because they chose to believe Super Earth could be better if shown another way.

    • @jackrogers5712
      @jackrogers5712 6 місяців тому +40

      I think Super Earth won only because the Illuminate in our galaxy are a tiny fraction of the whole. After humanity won the war, the survivors left the galaxy to go home and report what happened.
      The Illuminate we're going to see in HD2 looks to be reinforcements from beyond.

    Helldivers is heavily based of starcraft,
    terminids = zerg / tyranids / bugs (starship troopers)
    super earth = terrans
    illuminate = protoss
    and i guess automatons are basicly mechanicus from 40k
    so instead of saying everything is nanobots, its probably psychic energy like every ancient alien race has....

      Each of the factions was inspired by a different piece of media
      Terminids = Starship Troopers
      Automatons = Terminator
      Illuminate = War of The Worlds
      Super Earth is just Super Earth

And in HD 1 once you lost your gear you fked uo... No recharging gear, tha stratsgem is gone... That las gun you had? Gone. The jump pack? Calcinated. So you were screwed and only had the stratagems that were actually rechargable like orbital strikes or the 10 nukes

  • @mr-mr-101
    @mr-mr-101 2 місяці тому

    I definitely get the feeling that the Illuminate have been "scarred" in a cultural psyche sense. For lack of a better word, they look less refined than in HD1. They still look alien, but before there was a certain elegance to them. They wanted to look sophisticated.
    But the designs in HD2 seem less caring on being elegant. They look more sinister and cult like. The digging brute looks downright monstrous, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was called an Abherant or something. The summoner's whip leads me to believe they have become crueler too, demanding instead of imploring.
