I genuinely love this game as it has a great overall theme, gameplay loop is solid, and if you even have one other friend to play with, Helldivers 2 is an enjoyable experience.

However...Arrowhead can't seem to focus on what is important. I understand content can make or break a game, but since launch the performance of the game has drastically gone down hill with every patch, new game breaking software issues come up with every patch(crashing, glitching out of terrain, can't reload, loadouts not being applied, etc.), and in a PvE game weapons are constantly being nerfed while others remain untouched(or are just broken and don't work).

I play games to have fun and unfortunately Arrowhead is actively fighting against this.

At full price at this current moment, I don't believe the game is worth picking up in its current state.

If you can get it for around $20 then it may be of value, or wait 6 months for Arrowhead to figure out how to make a game fun.
