Helldivers 2 is not in the best place nowadays after the notable shortcomings from the recent Escalation of Freedom update that caused more harm than good. The daily active player count has been dwindling steadily and this is a perfect opportunity for the competition to gain more traction and publicity.
It was only a matter of time before the live service game made a mistake and lost momentum to pave the way for other projects with great promise to take the top spot. Players on the PC platform are fortunate to have access to countless games that can assert dominance.
Helldivers 2 Is No Longer the Most Beloved Game on PC Based on Recent Findings
The developers of Arrowhead Game Studios are struggling to keep the game afloat and to meet the gaming community’s expectations. The community has been begging the developers to crank up the entertainment factor in Helldivers 2 after the most recent update made the experience way worse, and players would not spend their precious time playing a game if it is not fun.
It would make sense for the gaming community to abandon their posts and allow enemy factions to take over occupied territory and for them to move on to something far more appealing. The game has suffered long enough and players are spending more time with an unplayable benchmark tool for an upcoming game and it shows how far the game has fallen.

Game Science released a free benchmark tool for PC players to evaluate whether their gaming rigs are powerful enough to run Black Myth: Wukong before the official release date. The charts on Steam are solid proof that this ambitious project will have a better chance of winning the favor of the gaming community rather than established multiplayer games from popular brands.
Other games like Palworld somehow gained an edge against the online multiplayer game shared across the PC and PlayStation 5 platform by having more players which is ironic given the drastic differences and nature of each game. The numbers do not lie and show where the interest of the gaming community is currently at.
The Free Benchmark Tool of Black Myth: Wukong Made Short Work of the Competition

The gaming community is convinced that this upcoming game will be better than most available in the market and better than Elden Ring, which is a bold statement. The enthusiasm and excitement are through the roof and players will only have to wait a little longer before experiencing what Game Science has prepared.
These recent findings should give the developers of Arrowhead Game Studios some pause to reconsider and evaluate their content output. The gaming community is fed up with cannon fodder content and is more interested in unique games.
There is also a possibility that the interest naturally died down after enough time has passed giving new games an advantage to take over as the center of attraction. Game Science has the rare opportunity to gain a massive hold on the player base.
The gaming community’s interest can shift making it a problem for developers to keep up. One day online multiplayer games are all the rage and the next they will be single-player titles.
