I just didn't buy it because the game looked boring and I have zero trust for big publishers. Glad I didn't.

Helldivers in not a boring game at all, quite the opposite, but Sony just got way too greedy and screwed it completely.

Apologies, I find it boring. Wave shooters or repetitive A to B walking/holding shoot isn't really fun in my mind. Seen a bunch of gameplay videos, it's all the same regardless of the video. Hence boring to me.

That's fair. This is the first extraction style game I've actually liked. And even still I rarely enjoy defending the extraction zone for 2 minutes or more. I'd rather do the thing and move on, it also destroys some of the novelty because every mission ends the same.
