The Voice Acting is not bad, but the transmissions are way to clear so it's like listening to streamers playing, which makes it sound cringe sometimes.

I'm with you. I was excited when the first trailer released, but recent insights have put me on edge about developing process. It looks really incredible, but I'm going to be very cautious.

[@WayStedYou]

Skill up said the writing was far better than he expected

[@murphyuriaguereka4360]

It is a shame that they didn't develop new fighting mechanics, is the same old shit but prettier. For me, I was looking for at least to dismember the enemies depending on where you hit them, just like Helldivers did. Pressing X or O, or R1 into an animated box just makes me fucking lose interest after 15 minutes of doing the same thing over and over. It doesn't seem like you are achieving anything at all. Also, I don't feel I am a space marine; I'm just another doll with left and right weapons. A small group of space marines fighting against an orde of aliens should have some source of battle mechanics to be efficient as the Romans did with their testudo or something that makes sense in those terms. To me it feels like they spend all budget into making a big scene but they completely didn't push themselves into developing new mechanics, it looks like the same old games but pretier. I also wonder why all 40-year-old KZbinrs seem to be ok with this.

[@azzy9293]

​​​​@@murphyuriaguereka4360 that's one hell of tirade, coulda summed it all up by saying "i don't like the game because it doesn't do gore the way i want it done and the game is too similar to the first one and for some reason KZbinrs are ok with having opinions that aren't mine. How dare they" honestly dude your main complaint is they aren't doing anything new which is an incredibly dumb thing to say considering most games die when they change too much, you know why halo 1-3 are still talked about and praised to this day?

@@DuskFaehey that's a good sign! Though how many games promised no paywalls but I am hoping for the best

[@mostlyjovial6177]

This isn’t GW deciding monetization, but the publisher. We will see if the Devs get strong armed into adding a shop. I’ll certainly be happy if not.

[@kogden8110]

The devs are in charge of MT’s not GW

[@SenseiLlama]

I see yhe cracks. Also the "hub world" format tires me. It never seems like a cohesive story.

[@mojolotz]

I so love that your Companions are now an actual force to be reckoned with. Especially when the Heavy takes apart enemies it looks so fucking glorious.

[@selore4865]

Man, it doesn't feel that long since SM1. Remember the sheer, unbridled joy of TotalBiscuit cutting up orcs. Hopefully this won't be another Darktide where previews look awesome and then the rest of the game is unfinished.

[@daneb1880]

I see the the Hive Tyrant took the “easily kill me to make a main Space Marine look badass” troupe personally

[@cptrage]

Overall the game looks amazing! One thing thats really pulling me out of the immersion tho for some reason is, where tf is he pulling that chainsword out of?! I get it, mechanically the game wants you switching quickly between melee/ranged but man theres something 4th wall breaking for me not seeing the chainsword on the character model when not in use. Hopefully they adjust that before release.

[@xxdkwxx]

I will awake on Sept 5th. I will begin my Crusade....immediately. No challenge is impossible for a Black Templar....And i will rise to occasion!

Thank you for taking your time to watch the details of the maps and what was happening. Can´t wait for this game.

[@adiabeticjedi3278]

What multiP 3rd person games need more of? Co-op finishers. I played Marvels Avengers a couple years ago and they had it. If that could look cool with flashy super heros doing finishers together, then 40K would look EPIC... in my opinion. More games need coop finishers.

[@hassandabo6288]

Can't wait to create a Salamander Heavy. Hope we get a heavy flamer for the Heavy class

[@kaimamoonfury1335]

The banter is awesome. I like how much it humanizes them, we always focus so much on their ascension distancing them from their humanity, that we forget that they ARE human. Chaos marines had their very human desires preyed upon and taken advantage of, the initial ones at least.

[@thebigwahoonie2009]

Another video already? Golly gosh, you're spoiling us! Ty

[@bunningssnag6647]

Love the first look overall. My only criticism is the weapon swap between primary and melee. For example when you swap to the chain sword it appears out of thin air. There isnt even an animation to put away the bolter. Same when you put away the chainswords the bolter just suddenly spawns in and your left arm teleports to grip it

[@seamagejoe8557]

Super excited about this game and this may be a detail, but do you guys notice how happy and cheery the Marines are to each other from reading a couple of novels not really how they interact with each other usually maybe it’s an ultramarine thing

[@jw7500]

Very much depends on the Chapter yeah...and the Marines in question.

[@themoltenedge1148]

Largely an Ultramarine thing. Morale is a real factor and Ultramarines are gonna wring every advantage it offers them, just like Bobby G taught them.

[@bknwuzheer1]

that Hive Tyrant was freakin terrifying; I always love the frantic co-op fights where it feels like you're trapped in an arena with a big, scary animal

[@olelee2161]

I wish they could add a feature that when walking by guardsmen, they look up in awe (insofar as they are not engaged in combat).

[@Ad_Ohmm]

This looks amazing!!! 😍 Can't wait till it comes out !

[@Dekan]

16:27 i never imagined space marines dodging this way :/

[@Guaguadeath]

Whadaya mean? Why not it's just a jump and roll. Just because they don't have like lightning fast darting reflexes as in the lore. It's kind of hard to portray that in a video game effectively and still make the game fun and challenging

[@junde410]

You could just put the game on the easiest difficulty, never dodge once and just be an unstoppable, impenetrable killing machine.

[@yarrick9372]

I am so excited to see more of this! I hope it’s all fun and the story is fantastic 🙏🏻

I just think there should be a mode where you play as Swarmlord and get revenge on the smurfs

[@USCGJAMESBENETEAU]

so the AI companions seem to have a poor response rate like at 23:10 the heavy is just standing there.

[@BloodFireDeath_]

sounds like a proper warhammer game to me

[@matthewmaclaren926]

Ive only very recently got into the 40k universe. But Dude, that first parry into an execution you did on that warrior gave me goosebumps, can't wait for this to release 😮

[@trevorthelen9231]

As someone who enjoys "dark souls" combat, I see where they're coming from with the roll. However, it's very uncanny to see a space marine roll like that. It would look much better as a small dash or quick step.

[@Escalusfr]

My thoughts exactly

[@pianospawn1]

With that thought, they could have made it more like the dodge in Bloodborne. Where it’s more of a sidestep/dash.

[@avalectra1]

Didn't gears roll? They also had large models. I think a jetpack dash would be cool as an I frame too

[@mojolotz]

@@avalectra1 Yeah but it's not a very Space Marine move.

[@jrr7031]

Yea, a side step and a hop would probably look much better.

[@theitchyspot]

the atmosphere, the sound design and this spectacular graphical presentation has hooked my right away.

[@Cerberusx32]

There's something 'primal'? About seeing hordes of Tyranids rushing across the bridge and the Imperium soldiers and defenses just shooting into them and it's not even doing anything. Also, I feel like it would be fun as heck to have first-person too.

[@DudokX]

Rogue trader and now this. I am glad i got into w40k lore during the pandemic

[@noodlesushi111]

is it just me or did they replace the bolter shot sound effects. it sounds way better than previous demos.

[@BaronNate]

You did a great job showing it off to us, brother. I really enjoyed the angles and shots you showed us. Looks great and hope to play it in the future. I loved and played the hell out of the first one. Thank you for sharing this with us. Black Templars assemble, we've work to do.

[@SaviourSword995]

OK. That hive Tyrant boss is literally made like an Elden Ring boss. If he is like that, then chaos boss fight is....yeah. It's not good man. But I am excited

[@jaywatson8720]

That first view with all the swarms were terrifying. I can’t wait for it to come out. Tyrannids are my favorite enemy xeno.

[@theitchyspot]

47:39: the amount of depth the gameply provides is amazing. I do not usually like watching let's palys, but this run kept me on the edge of my seat.

[@dreschlem2448]

Did we watch the same thing? Because it looks Amazing and the fights have impact - but it seems quite simplistic on a mechanics level. Looks like one melee attack, aim&shoot, dodge, one counter and one skill. No cover system, team interaction or somewhat deeper fight mechanics. Seems like they hit what they where aiming for, but it still looks outdated in a big budget presentation 🤔

[@mduckernz]

@@dreschlem2448 I think it will be a lot better to play on high difficulty. Luetin was not using a lot of mechanics the game offers… probably because it wasn’t hard enough that it forced him to learn them. That’s the best way to have players learn: have them die repeatedly until they care to learn how to avoid that happening

[@mduckernz]

@@dreschlem2448I also think it will be a lot better in co-op, especially on very hard difficulty, to force players to synergise their special abilities and use teamwork. In this gameplay, it was obvious that he basically ignored the AI players… because he could (wasn’t difficult enough that they were really needed) and especially because they just weren’t very good haha. But if you’re playing with human players, you can each take a different role and actually “play to type”, competently.

[@dreschlem2448]

@@mduckernz yeah I hope you are right. I also saw there are melee combos in the game, so the cqb seems to have more depth than on first sight visible.

[@Kilen_BE]

Looking great. The only thing I find a bit overly present graphically are these blue or green orbs showing what active effects are on onto the tyranid warriors. It takes too much space, masking too much of close combat happening. I assume there is a valuable reason to play effectively but it’s a bit perturbing these big blue orbs right onto the tyranid warriors… I wish we could see them better while fighting closely. Hopefully there will be a way to make it more translucent In the settings. Otherwise looking great, can’t wait to play it 👍

I am getting very big transformers fall of Cybertron vibes from this game. And I feel like when the space Marine moves if it just had the same sound effect of walking that the transformers game has it would just complete the mental image of what is essentially a walking refrigerator in terms of how they should sound when taking a step.

@@louiesatterwhite3885 Maybe, i don't know though. If the compression were the issue, then all the sound would be affected. I mentioned the bolter fire specifically because it stood out as worse than the other sound effects to me.
