Let's talk about Helldivers 2 - Discussion Thread

Hey everyone, I'm thinking for this one rather than posting a review thread like I normally do, we can just chat.

Has anyone picked it up? If so what are your thoughts so far? If you haven't picked it up, are you enticed by what you've seen in reviews and impressions? Do you have concerns? Also, if anyone here has played the first one, how do you like or dislike the changes they've made?

Personally, I am 90% certain I'm gonna pick it up. Tonally it looks hilarious, and gameplaywise it looks very tactical and visceral. I also think the price is just right for me to be a bit impulsive ($40). I'm trying to hype my friend group up to see if we can get a party together. If not, then I'll probably wait for them to patch the issue with public matchmaking on PS5 before I pick it up.

So what do you all think?
