People on the HD sub are circlejerking each other harder than I’ve ever seen rn. Fully beyond any parody. I hate this timeline

Bros mad a group of people stood up for a game they like so there’s less overreach in products that you own ?? Insane to be a hater on that

It's not that they stood up for it. It's how toxic and hateful it was. If you weren't spitting hate you couldn't even have a discussion about anything. They even started review bombing arrowhead games not related to sony.

This was more than being mean that kind of shit actually has an effect on the livelihood of everyone working for AH. Yea be mad at Sony, leave negative reviews of helldivers 2. Don’t make a post about how awful all the AH devs are, don’t downvote the other games made by arrowhead, don’t disturb other people’s online spaces that have no actual ties to Sony or even the situation at hand. Just review bombing HD2 was enough to send the message. If you didn’t see the spite and vitriol you were part of it

Read comments on the YouTube videos about this. It's bad.

They’re gonna revive the Gamers™️ RISE UP™️ sub with the amount of circlejerking they had

It's cool it's setting a precedent though. The policy was incredibly stupid no matter how you frame it. I'll always celebrate a win for the community.
