Helldivers 2 arrived on the scene and stunned everybody with how enjoyable it’s to play and the way enjoyable it’s to role-play inside the little story the sport affords.
It’s a multiplayer recreation at the beginning, however the narrative you observe that’s Tremendous Earth spreading democracy and the way its efforts are going throughout totally different battlefronts is one gamers get deep into.
Which leads gamers immediately into imaging how cool it might be to play a correct story mode, one thing that’s nonetheless co-op based mostly however maybe with extra linear missions with massive set-pieces.
Should you suppose that feels like one thing cool Arrowhead may do, you’re not improper – nevertheless it gained’t be taking place. Affirmation of this got here down from Arrowhead’s chief govt officer, Shams Jorjani, who replied to a fan asking Arrowhead to launch a narrative mode.
“Not taking place. Sorry bro. That’s like constructing a completely new recreation,” he mentioned in response. A disappointing reply for anybody who’d fortunately play a narrative mode in Helldivers 2, positive.
However Jorjani’s level nonetheless stands that to easily ask Arrowhead to ‘make a narrative mode’ is much more work than the common participant would possibly suppose. It will be extraordinarily troublesome, if not virtually inconceivable, for Arrowhead to maintain the primary multiplayer mode up and working, create new content material for that after which create this story mode that would probably warrant much more content material be made after its preliminary launch.
And that’s all earlier than even moving into whether or not or not Arrowhead desires to go down this street. If it did, then it in all probability would’ve already accomplished it/been engaged on it.
