Helldivers 2 regained positive opinions on Steam, but the behavior of community managers continues to stir controversy.
Nevertheless, it cannot be denied that last weekend was stressful for the entire Helldivers community, including fans of the first installment and the devs of the brand. One of the community managers had difficulties and seems to have fallen out of favor with the publisher, but has managed to keep his job for the time being.
Dev “almost” fired for supporting players
In fact, probably no one was surprised by this. Spitz was encouraging players not to complain in random messages on social media, but “where it will actually make a difference.” He even specified that it involves requesting game refunds (which Steam allowed as an exception) and so-called review bombing.
