Summary
Helldivers 2 has experienced a turbulent reception and rocky start since its launch.
Developer, Arrowhead, has sought to overcome the game’s low Steam ratings, at one point reaching 19% and normally signaling the death of a game.
However, the CEO of Arrowhead, Shams Jorjani, has worked to turn the game’s fortune around but faces challenges in communicating with Sony due to the Swedish summer vacation, which is a traditionally long break and highly observed by citizens.
Jorjani has drawn inspiration from Hello Games’ redemption story with No Man’s Sky, a similarly controversial title that is now highly regarded as a result of substantial updates from the developer.
This story showcases the power of consumer feedback in demanding improvements for live service games.
