Disclosure: I am a Warhammer 40K fan and I primarily play Thousand Sons. So, this is a game almost custom made for me. As a result I have a bias which I am disclosing here. Furthermore, I mention in the video that I was not able to get PVP working. It's my understanding that some people in certain areas of the world got lucky and were able to test it to varying degrees, but where I live I was never able to matchmake. TLDW: Space Marine 2 is a bloody good time filled with all the hack and slashing you could hope for in a Warhammer game. The combat is more nuanced than it appears at first, and the extremely varied difficulty levels can keep things interesting long-term. You will notice that the game is highly repetitive and enemy variety is not great, but on higher difficulties there's plenty of challenge to be found and some more unique enemies to be spawned. This won't be for everybody, especially those who don't like hack-and-slash games with repetitive structures, but many people are going to eat this up. In many ways, it is exactly what it appears to be in the trailers. If you think the trailers look good you will almost certainly like the game.

If you see issues with lip-sync'ing in games. Try lowering the image quality, as a test, to see if that helps. That will tell you if they screwed up, or, if you're system can't process it quick enough. I.e. graphics turned to 9/10, instead of 11/10, should help lip-syncing unless it's completely broken on the dev's end.

After getting 3 classes to at least level 20, I can safely say that sniper scales very hard. Low level sniper doesn't have enough ammo to move between engagements, doesn't have enough utility in the cloak for it to be worthwhile, doesn't have enough damage to take out the elites in a timely manner. Just overall bad. High level sniper gets cloak so consistently, makes it easy to force threats away from you to line up the elites, has enough ammo and damage to be dropping elites almost as soon as they spawn. Definitely the hardest power scale of the three that I've really played (heavy, sniper, bulwark). Overall, great game. Can't wait for some more missions to be added to the Co-op mode, as that's about the only issue I have with the game. 6 missions is just not enough, especially considering the randomness in missions is essentially opening door A rather than door B, groups of enemies being different, or planting on column 1 vs column 2. All things Darktide did much better with.

"A shockingly huge game for a decent price point. Impressive." A 10-hour campaign for 59.99$ base game or 99.99$ for a complete package. I suppose it is indeed "shockingly good" if you compare it to Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 (2023). I mean, spelling out loud that the game has borderline zero depth and copy-pasted encounters in a different coat of paint is quite commendable, however, the statement about the price is so ridiculous I decided to comment for the first time in the last 3 years on YT.

And while the game has PVE and PVP modes on paper, I am yet too see any information on them that would convince me I (or a huge chunk of the playerbase) could spend hundreds of hours slaying things beyond the main campaign. Furthermore, in a world where Elden Ring and Baldur's Gate 3 exist for 59.99$ one does not simply call a 99.99$ "complete" package a "shockingly good price point". The statement was obviously disingenuous. And while it is not hard to see why Mr. Luke said that, I simply could not resist myself from pointing it out. If anyone disagrees with that and it is fine for people to pay 59.99$, play for two hours, get the value out of the purchase and then drop the game forever - all the power to you.

@EugeneCutting The PVP and PVE are what adds replay value. Nobody is going to "drop it forever" after finishing the campaign because that isn't the point.

You pretty much sum up what i expected as soon as i heard by whom this Game is made as well the Gameplay-Footage. Saber Interactive playing their strength for horde-shooters (like their previous Game World War Z, or other titles like Left 4 Dead, Alien Fireteam Elite, Back 4 Blood, Vermintide or as you pointed out Darktide) but mixing it with some aspects of the first Space Marine Game. Which means it's not a surprise to me that it might become very repetitive esp. with the Co-op / Missions Mode which you'll play over and over again. But as you pointed out that's also part of the appeal due various reason, like tinkering around with gear and builds, often these games despite having some premade chokepoints still have some variation in enemy placement (not sure how that's the case for SM2), and in case of Left 4 Dead 2 the PvPvE aspect where people can play on the monster-side also keeps the game fresh. So i also fear that a potential issue can be people expecting too much / a different type of game and might dissapointed because of that (because i've seen some people even compare it to Remnant 2). About the Enemy-variety, also not a surprise either. I don't know what it is exactly with this genre, but it's quite common that they lack in terms of variety. Even Left 4 Dead 2 - which might be considered one of the best cult-classic does lack variety in the long run. So that's like - you could say, a staple flaw which hardly gets adressed (and one reason why in Vermintide 2 - which is my favorite game in this genre by the way, i never could get the b'tching about the winds of magic dlc, because they brought a new enemy type faction with it which added so much more variety to it, ... aehm sorry i sidetracked a bit). Good Video and Review, i'm super excited for Monday now.

It seems good but still rather bare bones. The Warhammer 40k universe is populated by so many weird and wonderful races, cultures and creatures and they really could have expanded the scope of the game in that regard. Ill wait a bit and see where the updates take this game and then pick it up on a sale or something.

Man, I was considering getting into this but having zero interest in PVP, or replayable multiplayer/co-op content, and only was looking for a huge, long awesome, challenging campaign, but it sounds like this thing is pretty short, and taking away the multiplayer experiences, sounds like there's not a whole lot there. Bummer.

The operations can be played with bots and are apparently basically more structured missions. Developers also plan to add more missions so may still be worth a look
@thebiggestbaz12 күн бұрын
It was never going to be a huge campaign my guy. If it is anything like the first one 10 hours is very reasonable. The whole selling point was the repeatable multiplayer offerings + a campaign. If you have no interest to the multiplayer parts then the game isn't for you champ

Well you don't need to now anything about 40k lore but I would watch a recap of the first game and I would say yes but that comes down to you it is only 10 hours and most of the replay value is in the multi-player that being said I would give the multi-player a try you might like it

if it's anything like the first one, probably wait for a sale (unless you're in a country that gets it cheaper probably worth 40 bucks for an 8 hr campaign). Coop and pvp are significant part of the value prop.

Luke, I just want to point out, the helmet bug you are talking about that is only present in the multiplayer pve mode, is NOT a bug. You're having the helmet off because its an appearance. To have the helmet on you have to change your appearance. Helmet on/off is ONLY for the campaign PVE mission.

2 things you can wear a helmet its not broken that option is only for storyyou have to equip it in the customization duh and 2nd operations is like that cause it a small side stories of a team that helps titus on his main missions its the missons that happen in between and there will be more for free you would know this if you payed attention to the tutorial when meeting the squad

So happy it turned out well but for what it seems to be offering, a fun brutal combat loop that leans toward repetitive with not too much content yet waiting makes sense. Road map looks good too, it's the type of game if you pick up for 30-40 bucks in a year you're so hype at the deal and content you find after updates!

He came to me and asked if I was gonna buy the deluxe version to get the skin and play early and I told him “no, I’m gonna save the extra I would spend on the deluxe version and use it on whatever micro transactions they add becuase this is a game I’m willing to spend extra money on.” Now I feel like an idiot haha and I feel bad because he did the same thing…
