It took GantztheDemon 10 days to be able to play Helldivers 2 again. On Feb. 21, TikTok user AJGaming shared a video featuring Gantz killing them. The sequence went viral overnight, garnering 4.8 million views as of this writing. A subsection of the Helldivers 2 community, hung up on the politically charged satire theme of the online shooter, labeled the player as a “traitor” and began inciting others to shoot on sight. Alongside dozens of TikToks campaigning for a witch hunt, Gantz’s PlayStation account was temporarily banned after receiving hundreds of reports.
Yeah same. One of my coworkers was trying to get me into it but every single time I keep coming across shit like this. No thank you.
Yeah, and last I heard, it was people getting kicked or killed for not having meta loadouts or some shit. Garbage. I’m already put off by the game because I don’t have friends, and seeing how the community reacted to a seemingly normal balance patch has really dissuaded me.
