I'm gonna say it, helldivers 2 needs the moderation. Anyone that has tried to play in random groups knows the frustration of playing for 40 minutes, collecting every sample on the map just to have the asshole leader decide it's funny to kick everyone from the game at the last second. It's a weird kind of toxicity because it's not like typical league or fps games of voice chat slurs and shit, it's just wasting a significant amount of people's time for no reason. Anyone that gets filtered by a psn login doesn't deserve to play anyway (barring actual bullshit like not available in your area, I'm with you on that)
