Helldivers 2 is going through some performance issues, and the studio's boss has been explaining how tech debt plays a part in the problem.
Helldivers 2's performance issues have become a large part of the conversation about the game recently, with Shams Jorjani, the CEO of developer Arrowhead, admitting "we're not getting a passing grade on performance and stability", and that there is a development plan in place to tackle it starting with an update next month. Jorjani has been active in the game's Discord, admitting that the game has a lot of technical debt (effectively, development decisions made in the past which have long-standing effects on the game).
