N64/Gamecube era: I'm going to hype you up with a cinamatic intro and also I'm going to render a whole interactive 3D space with a catchy theme song for my title screen and save select screens.

Modern era games: Lol heres a .png of our promotional art and a piano tinkling. No intro.

I'm getting old.

      They're fun. All the stations in Darktide have a voiced NPC, and most of them will be your mission coordinator in some missions, so it ties the interactive menu area in to the actual gameplay. The helldivers menu area is the bridge of your space ship where you choose what planet to bring LIBER-TEA to, then everyone jumps in to their drop pod to start the mission.

          I was really worried about the sequel announcement until i watched it a few times and saw at least a half dozen team-kills.
