Helldivers 2 was a pleasant surprise from Arrowhead Game Studios and the gaming community has been having a blast fighting aliens and for liberty. Unfortunately, the live service game has been on a slippery slope and the numbers do not lie about how hard it fell.
Some players take joy whenever they see a game decline in popularity which is futile and take every opportunity to compare it with others who are doing well. This kind of mentality is dangerous and pointless and could only stir up drama and pit people against one another.
The Player Count of Helldivers 2 Has Seen Better Days
Arrowhead Game Studios has been through tougher situations and will undoubtedly come out stronger than ever before. The gaming community recently uncovered new information about an old enemy faction making a comeback in Helldivers 2 which could be what the developers need to capture the attention of older players.
Not all hope is lost for the live service game to recover but some are already making fun of the drastic decline by comparing it to the statistics of another controversial game, which is not all that surprising.
This wouldn’t be the first time these two successful games were pitted against each other. The community manager of Palworld was not having it when players used these numbers as if they were bullets that could hurt each other rather than supporting the success of game studios in an oversaturated game industry.
Some people use the player count as a metric to determine if a game is a success or a flop. These numbers constantly fluctuate and are seldom in a fixed state to be used as a valid or solid form of evidence, some people find pleasure in upsetting others and making fun of the shortcomings.
Palworld Supporters Need to Take a Breath and Touch Grass
Seeing a certain faction of players waste their energy on meaningless things by spewing hate and adding more controversy can be annoying. The declining player count is not the end of the world for Arrowhead Game Studios; granted, it may be alarming but the developers are doing everything to turn it around.
Spreading hate is counterproductive and downright pointless, these people have nothing to gain by stoking the flames of the console wars. There is a strong likelihood that the player count of Palworld has skyrocketed because of the new content that promises a revamped map with new pals for the players to find and explore.
Pocket Pair has been working on some promising content that attracted the gaming community and sent them in droves to see it for themselves, while Arrowhead Game Studios is struggling to come up with something. Not everyone can win every day; perhaps the developers could do better tomorrow.
There is no need to compare and contrast to equally great games. Throwing hot water at a certain community will only result in more chaos.
