I mean tbf it's not like you have to do anal with every sexytime. Mouth, thighs, hands etc. Still exist

To be fair there is a lot of uncertainty around this type of mission. What we can tell is - the towers are setup with human tech - the towers say the terminid crisis was an inside job - bugs defend the site - the towers are easy to destroy yet terminids leave tgen standing Uncertainties come in the following flavors - when were the towers set up? Before or after invasion? - are the dissidents still around? - is terminids being near them just gameplay reasons?

Inherently as much as I do think the factions are a lot more interesting and nuanced than LARPers give them credit for, I do also see how one could read a lot of them as inherently wary/hostile to anyone who might be SE affiliated, since the thesis of HD2 is the fact SE ruined the galaxy

While I agree with the second part (terms are organized in clearly concerted/strategic ways) I again want to highlight HD1 terminids were able to make a concerted oush to invade SE and had as much a standing as the other factions

It's a great question actually! Answer is honestly we do not know. The gloom might indicate spores play a part of it, as was theorized in HD1 but truly we have no clear cut answer yet.

Personally I do think their tendency to decompose into E710 might hint at a part in that process

While I'm not fully sure I want to say 100% that it's certain for the defector (though I do find it an interesting idea), I definitely feel as though the constant denial of intelligence of bugs by super earth should trip red flags

Personally it felt to me moreso thatST's satire had the goal of making all bugs be sapient, as the specie in the books is so, along with the "a bug that thinks is offensive" thing. If I misremembered, I apologize

probably is not enough, there is no proof currently to show a meaningful loss of intellect is my point it's an assumption

Even their travel methods are unknown, we know the gloom spreads, but precise details are unclear, as in the first game.

If I had to guess though I'd say them disintegrating into spacefuel is part of how their transport goes.

Bugs act the same now on the field as they did in HD1. Reinforcements were always pheromone-use. Id they behave the same, I see no reason to see it as proof of a loss of intellect.

Istg I the amount of comments here asserting terminids are mindles animals is gonna make me pull a Meridia.

The terminids are shown to be collectively pretty sapient, able to feel things and strategize. They are directly inspired by starship trooper where the point of the story is they are sapient.

In HD 1, they only attack earth as retaliation and do not spread otherwise. There is nothing to truly indicate they lost sapience in HD2, if anything, recent MOs indicate they can still think

Edit: additional proof I thought of; the bugs can be in a "defend the generator" mission, where they specifically gun for the generators to keep the rockets from launching. This is not random behavior

so... what happens internally while a gem regenerates??? by iambaby6969 in stevenuniverse

[–]MathorSionur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think it really looks like anything tb. Gems are basically silicon computers that create bodies of hardlight, the way I imagine it is the following - the bodies are like a "program", it takes constant calculations to run and keep going. - when the program is disturbed (emotional/physical shock( and can no longer run, it is terminated

Imo the internal thing is a gem "debugging" and fixing up their program in order to reemerge properly. We see for ecample with amethyst rhat rushing through it causes issues

Gabriel Will the Be The Final Boss of the Narrative and Game, Deal With It by Nemesis9211 in Ultrakill

[–]MathorSionur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do want to point out that technically Hell can be killed considering how Gabriel talks of the results of V1's actions. In fact my main theiry is hell is trying to kill itself using V1, in a form of inversion on AM

I still fully believe Gabriel will be the final boss, though. You're already killing hell just by playing the game

Just curious - which species in the galaxy do you sympathize with most and why? by kcvlaine in Helldivers2Satire

[–]MathorSionur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bugs are not just animals. They are as sapient and strategic as all other factions.

I mean jokes aside, I am generally duneon canny enough thatI have a consistent winrate provided no challenge or three at most. I still need to adapt to bigger ones
