[@tequilawatcher2177]

Seen that they won't mention a really important point, I will. Playing the campaign solo on veteran (supposed to be the intended experience according to the game) or above (and some moments in normal) can get extremley frustrating because of the AI companions, who to be frank, don't help. They donb't change weapons, they don't seem to engage with objectives and will moslty stand around shooting minions while you get attacked by half the tyranid fleet right in front of them. To revive you, one of them will try to get to you, ignoring any enemy and the other guy will just watch him struggle without ever helping. "Those cokoo banas moments" he mentions become a repetition of stuns, the constant sound of unblocable attacks and spammed enemy barbed wire while you just try to figure out what even is happening.

[@dappermii9518]

Yeah the AI companions are almost completely useless. I had a little more success with pinging certain objectives but only slightly. Doesn’t help the enemies only target you 99% of the time and ignore them. I’m loving the game but that was a very big point of frustration

[@Suzuki_Hiakura]

Your description seems just like the first games AI... aside from the new revive mechanic...

[@HappyBabbyProduction]

Agreed. Also, the only way the game is made harder with every difficulty increase, is by making Titus weaker with less armour and lower defense, and the enemies more spongey. What would have been better is if they had increased the number of enemies during the fight sequences, and similar to Helldivers, throw bigger, more difficult enemies as the difficulty increases.

It's proof that a good game doesn't need to be all that complicated to be enjoyable. Seriously it's an 11/10 for me.

I remember so long ago when this channel first started making waves. Back then you didn’t have as many people giving you the low down on games on KZbin. Game informer magazines where still popular and KZbin was the last place you would think of to get info on new games. This channel has grown and blossomed into something amazing. I always had that feeling it would cause the people giving the game reviews were actual gamers and weren’t just doing for a paycheck. Thanks again for another great honest review of a new game coming out.

[@justanotherguyful]

Dude youtube used to be much better for game reviews and first impressions. In fact in the early 2010s youtube was mostly a gamers platform. Totalbuiscuits "Wtf is...?" was one of the most useful series for games on youtube ever. There were many others too, but he was one of the main pillars. After he passed, nobody came to take his place, even now, even this BYB is a shadow of what his reviews used to be, he literally systematically catolouged the whole damn gaming industry back then. RIP.

Here's a REAL Before You Buy tip: UNLESS YOU ARE AN ALWAYS ONLINE MULTIPLAYER GAMER, this game is functionally useless to you after the 8 hour campaign is over. The meat and potatoes of this game is called Operations, which has a bunch of grinding and class unlocks, and it DOES NOT SAVE PROGRESS if offline. Even if you spend a week grinding and then you GO online, you will lose all of your progress. This game is a Rent at best, and it boggles my mind that everyone is dick riding it so hard.

How is that even remotely "predatory"? If you wanna pay a little extra you get a season pass and you get to play 4 days early. If you had already planned on getting the season pass then you're saving a few bucks on top. Nobody is forcing you to spend the extra money. This isn't new and it isn't "predatory". Grown adults can choose for themselves if they wanna buy the other editions. And it's $30 more for gold which has the early access, not $40. Again, that's the usual price for season passes.

Honestly, between this and Darktide, you get a real sense of elites vs. hordes and the atmosphere. The table top side; not so much. But at this point there's the table top, the lore and the video games somewhere in the middle. If it's more of the lore try the audio books. There are a LOT of them, but audible sometimes puts them on sale for like $6/7 Another way to get a taste of other parts are the Battle Reports. KZbin channels that record tabletop games of 40k. Personally I recommend Play on Tabletop. I find Nick's energy infectious. The scale can be daunting, but find a part you like and explore bit by bit.
