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 tried looking for an alternative, the best I think is deep rock galactic, but I prefer helldivers play style.
I don’t know I just really liked dropping on with some randos, help them, hug and so on.
Even the friends I played with are in favor of SONY, so I am even losing that group of friends.
It’s a sad situation all around.
The alternative you are looking for is Starship troopers lol
