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.

Absolutely. The hats a good thing! We need terrible games like concord and star wars outlaws to close up shop and run within 6 months and then games like this to completely embarrass them in terms of sales, player count and longevity. $60 games that triple sales and player count of $70 ones means these big companies need to step up there game. Unfortunately they only care about day 1 sales because these companies aren't gamers. They are business men. If they sell a million copies and no one is playing after a month, that's a huge win in their eyes

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.

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.

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

Just a heads up, the helmet toggle isn't bugged. It just only applies to Titus and the campaign. In order to change the multi-player character's helmets, you have to do it through the armory customization menu! Great video otherwise.

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

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

Sounds like a buy for me after a dip in price. 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!

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.

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.

Also, the goofing off and shenanigans you'd attempt to pull in the slow moments. I'm beyond hyped
