Helldivers 2 may be recovering from the controversy caused by Sony, but the gaming community isn’t too happy with the game as it is. Players have lost interest due to the adjustments made by the developers, and it is not looking good for the game’s future.

It would appear that the developers are slowly losing their edge, and players no longer find the joy and satisfaction they once had in the game. Director Johan Pilestedt is aware of the changes and the grief they caused and has promised to remedy the situation, but it might be too late.

It is unsurprising to see the game in the state it is in at the moment after recent controversies negatively affected the developers. The gaming community has noticed the steady decline in quality and is concerned about the future, and some players are ready to move on from it.

It wasn’t long ago when some players reached out to director Johan Pilestedt and raised some concerns with recent changes the developers have made for the sake of scaling and balancing. Pilestedt acknowledges these complaints and promises that he will look into them himself.

The game is not as fun as it used to be, and players are not fans of the nerfs that affected their primary weapons. They even suggested an increase in capacity for the magazines that Pilestedt quickly shut down, not because it was a bad idea, but because it is a tedious one.

The once-unpopular opinion is now gaining more traction, and the player base agrees that the game is in serious need of new content. From enemy variety to equipment, Arrowhead needs to step up its game. Rather than having fun, players are constantly bullied by endless hordes of enemies and are armed with nerfed weapons that are most likely useless against them.

Helldivers 2 Had One Hell of a Run That May Be Ending Soon

Helldivers 2 is still salvageable if the developers put in more effort to make it fun and less stressful.

The developers addressed the concerns of the gaming community and made a promise to make some changes that would benefit them. The annoying spawn rate of enemies will most likely be toned down, which will allow players to acclimate better in the field.

Hopefully, this will be one of the many more improvements the developers will make to avoid losing the high player count. Live service games will need constant support, and it won’t take Arrowhead long to give the players the game they deserve.

Perhaps the newest enemy faction, called the Illuminate, can draw players back in and give them the entertainment they are looking for. New enemy types can spice up the experience and could be what the community needs right now.

Helldivers 2 was a massive triumph for the developers, and they will not drop the ball because of these minor setbacks. Pilestedt has ambitious plans for the future of this franchise and will likely not rest until that vision is manifested into reality.
