I’m keen on developing a new gaming persona called ‘Chaosdiver.’ It’d be cool if I could change my in-game name between this new identity and my current one to switch up my gameplay style. How do I make this happen without too much hassle?

You can simply change your Steam name to reflect your new persona. It’s quick and can be done as often as you like through your profile settings. No need for new accounts or buying another game copy.
If your intention isn’t to grief or cause any mischief but rather to enjoy different types of roleplaying, no worries. Changing names for roleplay is perfectly valid. However, another account might complicate playing with friends who know you under one name.
Honestly, if you want to keep your two personas separate, it might be easiest to create a second Steam account and purchase an additional copy of the game. This avoids the hassle of constantly changing your Steam name and worrying about syncing issues with the game’s servers.
Yeah, multiple accounts can be confusing. Plus, it sucks having to buy the game again just for a different persona.
