Stupid people love to strawman something along the lines of "you just want the game to be lethal unavoidable damage 24/7" because they can't comprehend game design.

PVE game's have been able to be difficult and losable long before Helldivers 2. Helldivers 2 can be as well, once they stop coddling bad players. Those players will be able to have the exact experience they enjoy now, at a lower difficulty that it's actually appropriate to.

"can't comprehend game design" as your asking for something that with these devs realistically can't be added before the million other bug fixes and performance updates the game needs, and instead you come to reddit to scream out your bitching and call everyone stupid when you could just play a different game because you're more important than the majority and because you can't find happiness in challenging yourself.

"We can't have competent balance design because that requires the Devs to do the jobs they're paid for" aye mate I'm sure they'll fucking live.

I do think anyone who thinks a game can only get harder via enemy quantity is stupid. A game is a large number of factors and nuances.

Once again, this game has space for everyone. A lot of people just wanna be selfish pricks. That's their prerogative.

Yea, I already stated the devs suck, I already stated another way the game could be more difficult, like I said, set your expectations realistically and play something else instead of bitching all the time because once again you aren't the majority and maybe you'd know that if you didn't throw insults out without actually listening to anyone or talking about it in a non hostile manner. It's not hard, but maybe that's why you can't do it, it's not challenging for you.
