Divided Views on Purposeful Failure
Amid speculation that completing new Major Orders involving the use of chemicals in Termicide missions may spawn mutated enemies, a faction of players advocates for deliberately failing these missions to prevent their emergence.
However, this stance is met with skepticism from others within the community, who argue against the effectiveness of such actions. They believe that regardless of mission outcome, developers are likely to introduce new enemies as part of the game's ongoing narrative progression.
Community Debates and Perspectives
The debate unfolds on Helldivers 2's subreddit, with proponents of intentional failure highlighting concerns about potential consequences and advocating for strategic resistance. Conversely, opponents argue that the developers are committed to introducing new content regardless of mission outcomes, rendering purposeful failure futile.
One player draws parallels between the game's unfolding narrative and the dynamics of Dungeons & Dragons, emphasizing the creative approach taken by developers in introducing fresh challenges. Despite differing opinions on management aspects, the community generally acknowledges the developers' adeptness in introducing engaging content to the game.
