Helldivers 2 drops to Mostly Negative on Steam, player count plummets
Helldivers 2 has been on a near-constant decline since its peak hype window passed earlier this year. Frequent controversial nerfs and performance issues have plagued the game since launch, and it’s now receiving a wave of negative reviews again and seeing numerous players abandon ship.
Today, Aug. 30, a Reddit thread pointed out that Helldivers 2 is once more in the “Mostly Negative” review category on Steam (only 39 percent of the reviews are positive) as the game continues to receive controversial nerfs, both intentional and accidental ones that happened through game-breaking bugs.
