Helldivers 2 Fans Are Down Bad For Eagle-1

It's pretty lonely out there as a Helldiver. Sure, you're surrounded by other Helldivers, and superior officers occasionally give you a pat on the back for collecting your samples and killing bots like a good little soldier, but there are very few NPCs in Helldivers 2 that actually have your back when things get tough.

She's married to her job folks, and any chance of an office romance between the two of you has exploded in one of her expertly dropped 500kg bombs.
