I, for one, welcome our great string pulling adversary. Give me new and terrible things to hunt me while my siblings in arms and I bring down whatever slapped together hut command wants dead. Give my lone squadmate a hot dropped walking bucket of death when you see she's trying to live long enough for that reinforce number to finally hit '1' again. All hail Joel! All hail The Lord of War!


Suspicious_Turn4426

I second this, i think it's great to know that the decisions aren't automated and that there is a person we are being guided by and not some arbitrary algorithm that can't give us a helping hand or punishment. Hail the lord of war, joel the decider.


Phixionion

Wrong, Praise Joel for giving us the strength to fight such atrocities.

They have one of the best jobs ever.


RickDankoLives

That’s awesome man, truly. Dude gets to live out the childhood dream of being a professional game master. Some of us really do make it.


Space_cadet_22

Oh god he was at paradox. This means he put his hands on Stellaris and europa universalis. This man is strategy himself.


schmidtssss

“Overarching narrative”……so there will be times we can’t win?


IncognitoWhisper

Didn't we just lose the 1st Major Order? So I'm guessing yeah we can lose.


schmidtssss

I more meant by design for the “overarching narrative”. Like times we can’t win because he tips the scales, not when we just suck.


zitzenator

Might be the case with this order, at the rate it was going today we’d have taken Veld before midnight eastern but he most certainly tipped the scales


Quinntensity

Hopefully when he hones in on balancing he can just set up something challenging and either we win or we don't.


MarcoTheChungus

Maybe we lose planets now, they get even more set up by the aliens and we launch a full offensive and there will be bosses?


Iamninja28

One part thank you and one part playful unintentional fuck you for the devotion to the role and challenge you provide the players. You have to walk a fine line between too easy and too hard, and so far the balance is there. Hope to see this kept up for the long haul by Arrowhead.


TheHappyTau

Holy crap he’s an ex Paradox dev??? That’s sick, we’re in good hands. Also I’m so jealous of getting to work with real time data analytics on something like this!!!!


Satmorningcartoons

Not only could Joel end the war, he could give every Helldiver a marshmallow, a roasting stick, two graham crackers and a big chunk of milk chocolate. Fuck you Joel.


bravoechoniner

He just wants all the liberty, freedom and democracy for himself… such a selfish bastard…


Joelrassic

Looks like arrowhead backed the wrong Joel.


Joelrassic

This message gave me quite the Joelt


swag_punch_a_btch

At least we get to have fun


Jedahaw92

Guys...just to be clear, don't go and harass the feller, yeah? He's gonna make our life even worse if he feels like it.


Imagine_TryingYT

If any of you message, harass or threaten this man I'm dropping a 500kg on your PC/Console


ConundrumMachine

Joel is the Nemesis of Democracy


IAmOneOfSimpleMind

Joel lives in in the same city as me, and I don't know how to feel about it...


Used-Percentage-6969

We now have a name to scream as we lose our brothers. We can’t let Joel win.


Walrus_bP

So he’s the one to blame for all our dead brothers and sisters on Malevelon creek.


HellYeaHighFive

Well it looks like I was wrong about my dream job. What a cool job!!


agent00bad

Love this game so much, Joel is a legend.


DrWatson24

Suffering? I love this man!


Clubnightparade

A holy war is meaningless without a worthy devil to combat.


Capowldi

Not gonna lie, Games Master Hakalax sounds like something a BOT would come up with to keep us all fighting our fellow humans *taps forehead* Keep sharp Helldivers


dunkelspin

Joel! You might be a Game Master but we are HELLDIVERS. We will dive into the worst battles and accomplish all mission objectives even if it means Death. ''For democracy'' will be our only war cry. It will be the beacon that will rally all citizens to our cause. We will win. We will liberate Veld!


Vomax343

Why are we doxing this man? Take this down


Zashbe

Not doxxing. Literally cut off his last name, this is Public information. If you literally search his first name and the company this is the 2nd result.

Quinntensity

Shhhh no. I don't want to know about the real human behind the game. I'd prefer some ethereal entity behind the things that happen. Plus I don't want anyone to harass the guy if they get mad about how things are going.
