Sony backed down (twitter.com)

Although I don't know if Steam will re-enable sales for regions without PSN coverage.

I just want the game to die so people quit LARPing across socials. The super ultra "ironic" freedom and democracy shit is so played out.

Yes I agree. What if warhammer 40k got stupidly popular with pretty much everyone and also they understand even less, somehow? That’s helldivers to me. I don’t really care how actually well made or fun it is. At least before I could ignore the chuds in a still relatively niche tabletop game and paint pretty models, now they are all swarming my Internet floorboards every second tab screaming about bugs and robots and democracy. Cool.

It's so old. I got to the point where i was snapping at people repeating the exact same cliched "i'm calling the democracy officer!" Shit to every discussion. And then i stopped going to the subreddit because god redditors are insufferable.

The tweet:

Helldivers fans -- we’ve heard your feedback on the Helldivers 2 account linking update. The May 6 update, which would have required Steam and PlayStation Network account linking for new players and for current players beginning May 30, will not be moving forward.

We’re still learning what is best for PC players and your feedback has been invaluable. Thanks again for your continued support of Helldivers 2 and we’ll keep you updated on future plans.

Gamers voted and it worked. This time.

got severe whiplash from seeing Ian Miles Cheong in the replies, but I'm not surprised considering this game's community lmao

Cheong is exactly the class of reactionary shit I expect to see involved in these campaigns.

Wonder if steam will list the game for sale again in those countries. Must have gotten a lot of refunds
