Comment on Helldivers 2 and Palworld devs wish players understood that 'easy' additions and updates are sometimes really hard: 'That's half a year's work. That takes six months'

  But then, warbonds aren’t necessary to play the game…

  If you play 1-2 hours a week you probably haven’t even unlocked the free stuff yet, or got meaningful upgrades. The new guns are not that great. I use the same shotgun from day 1. Same OG kit. The game plays fine without the BPs. The game gives you free access to BP. The core game itself is very fun to play and the rewards come pretty naturally.How is this an issue?

  If you don’t have the time to read a book,watch a movie or play a game you should not start it.

  I’m over 50, like you only have a few hours, i have a tremendous backlog of games i just have to play and a family to provide for. (mechwarrior clans is the first one which comes to mind but i have dozens)

  But i came back for this event. You miss nothing. Every weapon you can “buy” does not really alter the game or changes anything. The standard liberator is still one of the very best primaries.

  Here the thing, if you only play 1-2 hours a week you barely have enough time to get a good load out figured out. Why don’t you just enjoy the game as is, when you have 40 hours in the game you should have unlocked a battle pass. It’s how games are monetized now. Enjoy the content available to you or fork up the cash. Welcome to 2025 we all hate it here.
