Changing this back to a positive review since they caved, but keeping the negative version here too as a reminder of why Sony sucks.

Original Review:

Genuinely the best Co-op game since Left-4-Dead 2. It doesn't disrespect your time or your wallet. This is how you do a live service game. Feature complete at launch, no predatory micro transactions, and earnable premium currency in both gameplay and the free battle pass.

The gameplay is buttery smooth and runs flawlessly. The optimization here is incredible, especially with how much is constantly happening on screen.

Both enemy factions feel incredibly different from each other, so if you don't like fighting one or get tired of them, you can just change to the other faction's missions.

The Edited Version:

The sole job of a publisher is to PROPERLY distribute a developer's game. That's it. Maybe market it for them if they ask. Sony sold the game globally, knowing full well that not every country they were selling the game in would be able to link to a PSN account. There are 195 countries in the world. Helldivers 2 went from buyable globally to unavailable in 177 countries. People who live outside the 69 countries PSN is available in will have no way to play the game that Sony sold to them after this month. All because they wanted to pad PSN member numbers to satisfy the never ending corporate greed of stockholders. I really enjoyed this game, sad to see Sony shoot themselves in the foot again while shooting the devs in the back over this
