How Helldivers 2 Uses the Fear of Missing Out to Create a Can't Miss Experience

Through the triumph of togetherness, Helldivers 2 has become one of the breakout gaming titles of 2024. And unlike other live service games that use FOMO in avarice ways through pay to win structures and time-restricted content, Helldivers 2 leverages this concept in a positive manner to create a thriving gaming community that's ready to stand up for freedom at a moment's notice.

[@Mattznick]

it's really cool to see a modern game be able to bring those feelings of community and comradery of gamers just having fun instead of heavy competition or meta gaming hope more games like that come out

[@borissmorkis2836]

chivalry 2 is kinda like medieval helldivers in that way! plus it's funny and has great gameplay

[@Mattznick]

[@dipdor1]

Excellent review

[@hhowdy]

I want this game so bad I’ve seen it grow and become huge over the past couple months but never got it. I want it soon, looks insanely fun.

[@xrodiexapatlot_5552]

Yea I’m in the same boat I’ve gotta get me a ps5😭

[@raystonge154]

I have the fear of missing out because I get disconnected from 90% of my games in Helldivers 2

[@taketheleep]

Sounds like a scrambler may be near by. Charge in and take it out.

[@StTrina]

Is it too late to get into now? And is it easier to play with keyboard or controller?

[@taketheleep]

Definitely not :) I'd say it's still accessible to get into it if it looks appealing to you. I've only played on keyboard & mouse but plenty players are on controller.

Dude stole the name of *MY* Super Destroyer!

[@taketheleep]

Helldivers, it has come to our attention that an imposter Titan of Twilight has been seen patrolling the galactic map. Our sources tell us that the commander of this vessel is either an Automaton spy or the ship is run entirely by a corrupt robot AI. If you come across this ship on your way to spreading democracy, use any means necessary to blow it up on sight, then reach out to Super Earth authorities... in that order.

It's just DRG for boring ppl.

[@RoboVenturer]

And how would you feel if someone said the same about a game you like, would that mean you’re a boring person? Of course not, but it doesn’t mean you’d feel happy hearing/reading that. Lol

[@JohnkyTonkbadonkadonk]

Never touched DRG cause it looks boring.

[@Mandatory.Testicular.Torsion]

@@JohnkyTonkbadonkadonkno missing out, I’ve played it and it is. HD2 is leagues above

[@Forgottenmyname]

Tf is DRG

[@JohnkyTonkbadonkadonk]

@@Forgottenmyname Deep Rock Galactic. Had to Google to figure it out. DRG just means 'Dragoon' to me. *shrug*

[@amythistfire5042]

I have yet to try HD2 so far, but this video just convinced me to take the plunge 🫡

[@taketheleep]

Welcome to the fight, diver 🫡

[@leonardovelasco5625]

[@stockrappy]
