Arrowhead Game Studiosstruck gold with the franchise and made the necessary changes to the sequel that resonated well with the gaming community. The gaming community was enamored by the themes of war and the gameplay but hopes there will be massive improvements in the next few patches. Some fans suggestedHelldivers 2should have weekly limited eventsfeaturing fun game modes and earning goodwill from fans.
The ambitious nature of the game allows the developers to create unique storylines and build out the lore. One player was caught off guard as they stumbled on remains that could have been around the First Galactic War, the same war when the originalHelldiversgame took place.
It is easy to forget that the galaxy the game is set in is torn by war and the remnants of the past are now scattered across distant planets. Despite being deceased for centuries, it is still a sight to see behemoth creatures lying in the field after what seems like a deadly battle against soldiers of old.

It is interesting to see the developers take assets and story beats from the previous game and reference them in the sequel for legacy players to notice and to strike fear in the hearts of newer players. The First Galactic War took a toll on the galaxy and it may not be convenient to clean up older messes but it is much easier to leave it as it is as a reminder.

Shades of the first Galactic War will never disappear and the universe has a long way to go to recover. Perhaps it is for the best for players to see random bones of dead creatures to remind them what war can bring.
Helldivers 1was a simple top-down shooter and the developers made significant overhauls to the gameplay that expanded the lore. The developers are using the past to help the present and it served the sequel well.
