Helldivers 2’s intro just got a new behind the scenes look, and yes, there’s a goofy close up of the guy screaming as his family gets murdered

Ok, so, you know that bit in Helldivers 2‘s now iconic intro cinematic where one minute, everything’s fine, and the next some poor man’s screaming because a Terminid is killing his family right in from of him? Well, thanks to a new behind-the-scenes video from the company that made the sequence, you can now enjoy a hilarious ultra close up of the mo-cap for that scene.

Yes, it’s a weekday and we’re casually reccomending that you take time out of your day, minutes of your life that you’ll never get back, to watch a man scream into a camera while dressed in the slightly silly clothing that a lot of modern games, films, and shows require. Look, it’s a bit funny, ok? I promise.

To see this bit of screaming, you’ll need to check out a new behind-the-scenes video that Goodbye Kansas Studios, the Swedish VFX studio that worked on the game’s intro alongside Arrowhead, has just put out. It’s not too long, but offers some interesting glimpses at the motion capture and modelling that went into bringing the intro to life in a fashion that’s not just people in funny suits running around with gun props.
