Can I play Helldivers 2 on another operating system?

I don't know what this means but it sounds buggy?

Ignore all that, people get a wee bit enthusiastic.

I'm on arch, the steps to get playing are:

- Install Steam

- Install Helldivers2

- Launch game

(I just downloaded and launched to confirm!)

I don't know if you are aware but Steam has a Linux compatibility layer which they use on their Linux-powered devices. But you don't need their hardware, you can install Steam and play most games that doesn't require Kernel backdoors to play. And if you don't own the game on Steam, you can install their compatibility libraries from your package manager and/or GitHub.

I have been doing my PC gaming exclusively on Linux since the Jan 14, 2020 when Windows 7 was end of lifed.
