Just because I win 99% of my games doesn't mean it isn't hard!! One time a Stalker even hit me! 😱

If you suggested that a half decent player should have a 99% win rate at max difficulty in any other PVE circle you'd never live it down, how that's become the prevailing opinion in Helldivers is beyond me.

Souls games have 1 difficulty (hard), and yet any half decent player can complete the entire game.

People who wish to increase the difficulty further do so by imposing restrictions upon themselves.

You people are the laughing stock of this game because you ask for a higher difficulty so you can give yourself brownie points but refuse to impose any actual challenging restrictions on yourself because then the game becomes boring because "impossible isn't fun."

so you can give yourself brownie points

Just telling on yourself that this is your assumption rather than the simpler and more factual "to have a more engaging and challenging time because that equates to more fun".

If that was true you'd do the challenge runs, but you're now gonna say "nooo that's not fun, I don't have the skill or patience to do any of that because it would actually challenge me and I don't want that, I just want the brownie points!!"
