Cyberpunk 2077 was fixed up enough that by the time I tried it some months back I was satisfied with it. It was never going to live up to the overhype train, but it was a solid single player action rpg. They basically relaunched the game alongside the anime, as well.

Massive difference between that and the many problems with helldivers, multiple of which are absolutely unacceptable. Cyberpunk was a bad release that got fixed. Helldivers has fuck you peasant levels of anti-consumer shit built into it deliberately. And cyberpunk got massive backlash for it's terrible release, while HD2 rode the retard train and paid for enough streamers to drown out voices of sanity.

Freemium shit on it's own is disgusting. The always online drm is "you don't own the game" tier, when it's a 4 player coop peer to peer game. Ridiculous. And while on principle I dislike kernel level anticheat, the one they use is far worse than the usual ones. All of that should have gotten backlash. The massive viral marketing campaign drowned it all out.
