Just a few weeks ago helldivers was one of the poster child dev teams that got gamers and therefore deserve their success. What a turnaround...

Well they still are beholden to Sony executives that have no idea what gamers want unfortunately.

I still love Arrowhead. It's not like their intention was to fuck over their players. I'm sure they're not super happy about the situation. Though the team being who they are, they're not exactly ones to take shit in any form lol. Which honestly makes them more enduring to me. Having suffered being a core BF5 player those devs these are not, DICE had bent over backwards to whoever screamed loudest on the subreddit which did nothing but damage the game and its lifespan. Granted this situation isn't totally comparable, but the parallels are there.

their decision to use an unnecesary intrusive rootkit ai should have clued players into how little the devs care about the players
