[PCGamer] Helldivers 2 is the least I've felt pressured to spend money on a game in years, so of course I'm buying everything in the store (www.pcgamer.com)

HD1 is playable offline. No reason the second game shouldn't be either

The reason is the cash shop of course. I know, it's cheap and fair compared to every other live services, but it still limits your play to be online only.

We can only hope the game does an Avengers when it closes down and patches offline play, but we can't trust these companies.
