Helldivers 2 Faces Identity Crisis After 8 Years

Two years later and Helldivers 2 still has an identity crisis.
Arrowhead took 8 years to make a game they can't seem to identify with. Is it a immensely popular horde shooter or is it a niche version of 'Tarkov in Space?' There's also the question of Glazedivers and Grunt Fantasy that needs addressing.

The discussion of what Helldivers was meant to be versus what it could become has never been answered. We've received yet another round of videos expressing both elements in this discussion, but the question still lingers. Here's my thoughts.
As always, thanks so much for all the Helldivers Love! ~ Buzz

HELLDIVERS™ 2 is a 3rd person squad-based shooter that sees the elite forces of the Helldivers battling to win an intergalactic struggle to rid the galaxy of the rising alien threats. From a 3rd person perspective, players use a variety of weapons (pistols, machine guns, flamethrowers) and stratagems (turrets, airstrikes, etc.) to shoot and kill the alien threats. Players can also aim down the sights for a more accurate 1st person camera view.
