Helldivers 1 is brilliant and stands up to the test of time remarkably well. But it’s got a difficulty sweet spot and MUST be played with like-minded and similar skilled friends.
Deffo not a solo game.

PC version is using some kind of kernel level/rootkit anti-cheat 'nProtect'.
I had blue screens after the Valorant one so this game is a no for me.

Helldivers 2: The Final Preview - IGN
After going hands-on with Helldivers 2 for three hours, I’m sold on the bold pivot from the original’s top-down view to the sequel’s new third-person perspective, the appetizing roster of deadly gadgets, and the outrageous comedic tone that expertly channels the low-budget action film vibes that...
Some good footage in here.
Really put off HD2 by their anti-cheat stance
I went from a must buy to a maybe when I heard about the in-game money grubbing to a definite avoid when the anti cheat method was released.
I just want to play some co-op with mates... we don't need cheat-protection.
Make it an option and block me from playing the public Galactic War stuff that I don't care about.
They're not exactly joining an inspirational list of GameGuard protected games!
I'm gonna give HD2 a miss until they revise their stance!

What's the anti cheat about? What's performance like on pc for thkse who jave played it?
It'll install NProtect but beyond that I can't comment. I wanted the game so I installed it. I only use my PC for games so I didn't really care what the deal was as long as I could squash some bugs.
Performance on PC for me has been absolutely fine. Other than 1 crash when I was sorting out loading into a cross play match, after that I had everything on Ultra/High with no issues.

It's bloody good! Especially when you get past the intro/easy difficultly levels.
