I feel bad for Arrowhead. Sony fucked them over and it's not going to take any of the backlash, they will.

Arrowheads response to this was to sic their community managers on people and blame the community for being too lazy to “make a throwaway account to make yet another account for a game”

As far as we can tell that was never an order or anything. The CMs seem to be cracking under pressure.

idk, helldivers going from insanely popular to universally reviled is gonna hurt future deals with Sony. why would any indie or medium sized dev risk doing business with Sony when Sony will randomly push the "destroy game and profitability and reputation" button? this will decrease the number of people willing to publish titles through Sony. "oh you went with Sony? you must want to kill your game lmao"
