Most games lose something like 80%-90% of their players in the first couple months. Helldivers 2 is still at about 35% of peak. That's pretty huge. Is it, literally, losing steam? Yes, in a technical sense, you're right. But all games lose steam. Helldivers 2 is losing it way slower than comparable games, which is much more important imo.
I play this game exclusively on Linux without issues so the anticheat doesn’t seem that intrusive. Could be my perception of it though.
Yeah, a true rootkit kernel-level anticheat wouldn't work on Linux at all (see: Valorant and its anticheat - Vanguard).
Since the butthurt mods didn't like it and removed the comment, I'll summarize it for future readers:
A wave of downvotes hits every comment critical of Helldivers 2. This whole post and discussion is paid shillery.

People aren't being shills, you're just being a moron. Your comment had nothing to do with the article in question and was nothing more than irrelevant ranting, which is why people were downvoting you.
Extra extra, shill denies shillery
You are wrong, and you should be ashamed of yourself for accusing people without any proof. If you really believe everyone who praises the game to be shills, then you're also deluded.
I've 250 hours in, and loving the game. Sure it's starting to lose the appeal slowly after this long in, but I sure as hell got my 40€ worth, and I know me and friends will return to have fun with it periodically, similarly to L4D2. The gameplay loop is just that good.
I'm so happy you're absolutely fine with your security and privacy being compromised, but it doesn't make it right.
