Personally, I think what we are seeing is the outrage cycle dynamic in action.

#Helldivers2 is a really fun game, and more than the sum of its parts. But imho it's far from GOAT. Imho the game has been quite a bit over-hyped, and Arrowhead has had the hero/saviour trope assigned quite a bit.

And now folks are all too eager to see the hero/saviour cast into the dust. You could see that in the negative hyperbole to the latest balance patch already. Dramaturgic powerplay. 🤮
