A bruised Helldivers 2 community finds solace with a player who’s become everyone’s new ‘frend’
Wounded hearts tend to grow closer together, which is something the Helldivers 2 community has learned after a recent crushing defeat. After a fellow diver found themselves at the receiving end of a boot, the Helldivers 2 community swiftly responded by making them everyone's "frend." A few days ago, a Helldivers 2 subreddit user by the name of RoboBadger07 shared a shattering image of a conversation in a post titled, "The interraction [sic] that can make a grown man cry." It starred a diver named dremskiy, who joined a match only for the host to tell them they were about to get kicked. "[W]e playing friends opnly," the host explains. "[I] hv to kick you." Dremskiy replied, "im frend." The plea fell on deaf ears: "dontmake this more difficult." https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1cr02xb/the_interraction_that_can_make_a_grown_man_cry/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button The brief, devastating conversation exploded on the subreddit, spurning a wave of memes and creating the kind of camaraderie sorely needed for the wounded community. https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1ct7ei0/thank_you_frend/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button Helldivers 2 community needed a new frend, and one got a few too many It's been a rough go for the Helldivers 2 community these last few weeks. I can elucidate the recent history for whole entire minutes, but I feel it could be more fun to go over it in tantalizing list form: Sony proposed forced PSN accounts, blocking nearly 200 countries from playing the game until backtracking An unfortunate nerfing to my innocent baby boy, the Eruptor Balancing concerns and a lukewarm reception to the latest Warbond An upsetting loss of a Major Order and its Stratagem award Indeed, things have been more optimistic for the live-service shooter. Not even the recent announcement of its impressive sales figures was enough to clear the dark clouds overhead. Perhaps the people didn't need numbers, but a hero. Of sorts. Dremskiy is also aware of their internet fame, as discovered in a recent Reddit post. One player managed to run into them during a match and mentioned their fame. Dremskiy replied that they learned about the memes thanks to a friend, and says the whole situation has made them "genuinely happy." https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1csu1u7/the_legend_the_myth_our_frend/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button Even the official Helldivers 2 account on Twitter has gotten in on the fun. https://twitter.com/helldivers2/status/1790753121074807103 Sadly, if you're looking to be a frend to dremskiy, you're a little too late.
