is the game that good?

  The vision and theme and gameplay is excellent. The game is absolutely riddled with bugs, though, and every update adds more. It was a massive surprise success from a small studio and they are really struggling to keep it together, the game is made on a engine that stopped getting support like 8 years ago. It's worth the money now but hopefully in a year it's a lot more solid technically.

      Yeah, too many people just fight bugs and ignore the bots. ;-)

  I enjoyed it for a time. It's a particularly well executed blend of co-op and third person shooting, like the Starship Troopers game I've wanted for a while. Amusingly, there was an officially licensed Troopers game that came out shortly before Helldivers 2, and it basically went nowhere. I stopped playing because the developers don't wish for me to continue playing at my preferred difficulty, and lock me out of mission types and progression unless I play at the annoying, stressful high difficulties they prefer.

    They truly hate their own game. It's been a while since I've witnessed such a fumble

  It’s ok. I enjoyed Left 4 Dead and Deep Rock Galactic more. The game lacks content compared to those two, but that’s to be expected as its only been out a short while. Its theme feels like a homage to 1997’s Starship Troopers which gives it a strong identity.

  It's honestly my most enjoyed game of the last few years. The feeling of boarding the Pelican right at the end of the mission never gets old.

  Is a worse Deep Rock Galactic.

    Please don't mislead people who are genuinely interested. These are two very different games
