Why Buy Live Service Games If They’d Disappear. To top it all of, most of these games are 60 or 70 dollars at least. (www.gamescordia.com)

God, helldiver's is a little intimidating with the constant updates to the game.

Lol I am on the opposite side of the spectrum. I've unlocked everything possible with medals and am constantly looking for them to add new content for me to spend them on.

It has a lot of bugs that are not due to the live service approach, and they are improving their patching process.

The live service part about new missions and storyline can be joined at any time, no more complicated then when released.

But the legitimately nice thing about Helldivers is you can look through all of the updates, and decide which you want over time.

It's slowed down now, and either way you can feel free to run missions at any difficulty you're comfortable with to get equipment for viable builds.
