Helldivers 2 was a success across the board, not only for the intrinsic qualities of the game but also for Sony's wise decision to release it on PC at the same time, thus increasing the user base and consequently the number of online players. At this link is our review.
Therefore, although critics and the public are satisfied – as is Sony – there are those who still think that denigrating another game is a good thing, even if it's not exactly the same kind. On X in fact, then user thought of putting Helldivers 2 and Halo Infinite on the same level, supporting, with a certain degree of “antipathy” towards the Redmond househow Sony's latest work is decidedly better than that done by Microsoft.
We all know a little about the difficult dynamics that 343 had to face during the development of the last chapter starring Master Chief, however making a comparison with a title that thrives on something completely different is somewhat unfair. So unfair that the director of Helldivers 2 Johan Pilestedt also intervened directly, stating that it is not necessary to compare the projects and not only that: “Why compare? Let players love and enjoy both titles. We need more compassion and unity in this world, and less rivalry.”
This is nothing new though: in 2024 we very often find similar situations in various social networks, where it is still difficult to enjoy your favorite game without pointing the finger at rivals. We know, we are somehow looking for confirmation and praise for the choice of “side” and however much we can explain how this is at least limiting, it is a phenomenon that will never disappear, not even if the creators of our beloved video games themselves took action firsthand.
