Y’all, Helldivers 2 is just so much fun. I would not have assumed at the beginning of 2024, just after completing Baldur’s Gate 3, that I would be championing an always online squad shooter - but this game is just so damn enjoyable. Furthermore, the community has been so engaged and invested in the spirit of liberty that it’s made me prioritize a style of game that I thought I had mostly left in my past.
Now we’re in the middle of this huge nonsense with PSN and it has completely sucked all the air out of the room. I understand why people are upset and I don’t agree with the shit that Sony is trying to pull. I just want to keep this magic going.
I don’t have much to say other than try to maintain some empathy for Arrowhead, as this seems to be out of their hands. They genuinely seem to want to just make a kick-ass game.
Keep up the good work Helldivers.
I’m right there with ya! I’ve put in ~120 hrs w/ DRG to date and was happy, even proud to “tip” the devs with real cash money for silly cosmetics over the year plus that me and the boys went caving for rock & stone! 🤘🏼 Now, just shy of two months into Helldivers 2, I’ve logged >65hrs and almost got the band back together (thankfully, two of the friends needed to wait until now to make that happen — which seems to have saved them the headache)…
If anyone is “in favor” of SONY’s fuckery, they’re either lazy or an idiot, or both.
