Reddit user EQRightsEQPunishment took to the game’s subreddit and thanked everyone involved with the game, from developer Arrowhead to the massive community and Sony, even after the PSN account controversy. They appreciated the developer for being “receptive, transparent, accountable and professional” towards the community.

The player also said that they acknowledge the work that Arrowhead has put in the game to get the game to achieve “overwhelming growth and popularity,” especially after the studio’s budget and size in comparison to other AAA studios. They said that the developer needs to know that it’s efforts have “not gone unnoticed or unappreciated.”

They also said that they have logged over 750 hours in the game and that they are not yet done. “I can confidently say I still am not remotely tired or feeling burnt out and enjoy each mission as much as my next,” the player stated. They also asked fellow Helldivers to keep playing the game.

The player said the Helldivers 2 community is the best one in all their years of gaming. The majority of the fans praised the game and also the OP for speaking well about Arrowhead and Helldivers 2 when many were bashing it.
