The original PlayStation belonged to a very different era for gaming compared to what we’re used to now. In today’s world, accessibility features and the expectation of actually being able to finish a game are a luxury that wasn’t so normal in the 90s. Back then, most PS1 games didn’t take long to complete time-wise, but the sheer difficulty present in a lot of them turned a 4-hour title into a 40-hour practice run.

Oh, the days when PS2 games came with instruction manuals to help players prepare for the worst kind of challenge — and even then it wouldn’t be always be enough. Games these days tend to hold your hand from the beginning, and some don’t even let go. The PS2 era ushered in some cult classics and offered truly remarkable technology for its time, including a built-in DVD player, online play, and better graphics than anything seen before.

Every time you dive into bug-infested hell or automaton madness, death is almost guaranteed in Helldivers 2 unless you make great use of Stratagems. Stratagems are crucial to getting you and your squad to the finish line, as you can call down an array of impressive firepower to support the offensive against the galaxy’s greatest pests. From missile barrages and turrets to heavy weaponry and ammo replenishment, Stratagems are diverse and plentiful, fit to cover all kinds of situations that your squad will find themselves in.

In Helldivers 2, earning cosmetics can take time, as you’ll need Medals to purchase many of them in the Warbonds menu to give your bug-hunting expertise some style. There are several resources to keep track of, and one of the most vital of them all is the Medals. They’ll allow you to unlock a wide variety of useful items, such as new weapons, armour, and even Super Credits.

The PS3 era mostly shook off the tough arcade roots that influenced gaming in the years prior by including more advanced accessibility features compared to earlier games on previous consoles. Implementations such as fairer checkpoints, frequent autosaving, regenerating health and other tweaks to the difficulty have allowed players to customise their gaming experience to their preferred taste.
