I have not watched Starship Troopers in over a decade, but I watched it today, because of this game. (lemmy.world)

It is better than I remember. The visual effects are far better than should have been possible for the time. The story is exquisite. As I watched it all I could think was "For Democracy!'

The visual effects are still good for the same reason the visual effects on the OG Jurassic Park are still good: they knew when to use CGI and when to use practical effects.

Paul Verhoeven also did Robocop and Total Recall before this movie. Regrettably he hasn't done anything as good, since.
