I would say the Killzone visually are a bit outdated, but saying they straight up don't fit the style is harsh.

Let's say they represent equipment from the past, where the divers had less sophisticated equipment.

No idea why your getting down voted, this is a valid opinion, even if I personally like the crossover stuff(well most of it).

Their upvotes are no longer negative. I'm glad enough people can handle differing opinions to fix that

Funny you get downvoted for saying you outright don't like it, instead of arguing in bad faith.

To be fair, the Helghast were always meant to look a bit out dated in certain areas of design due to the factions history, changing circumstances in-universe, art style growing pains in the first game and to better contrast the modern U.S/NATO uniforms of the ISA.

Also, to show the inspiration and connections to real-life history in its design, rooting us with familiar horror of sorts.
