Alright, to start I wish I could give a neutral review for this game. It will be a positive rating as it's going in the massive right direction now with the class overhaul unofficially bringing this game into 1.0. Yes I said 1.0, but it's not an early access game is it? The class overhaul is amazing and has brought life back into the game while removing a lot of the samey feeling of the game. The classes feel inspired even the Ogryn with his cinder-block grenade.

The reason I'm neutral about this game is the time it has taken to get here. My main issue is the time it took to get here, I preordered a Warhammer 40k game to play as a fully finished product. What I got was an unfinished buggy mess with an amazingly fun core surrounded by layers of trash and terrible business practices that sour the gaming industry. If they add a battlepass I'll be back here with a negative review in a heartbeat. Another thing! It has microtransaction currency like mobile games with the whole you get extra coins for buying this bundle. Don't support that, force them to either remove the Aquila or make it earnable in game while also cutting the bonuses to not psychologically manipulate players into spending more. You already bought the game, they don't need to extort you anymore, but they do and they won't stop unless you force them.

As a new player though coming into this game, I believe now is the best time for you. As far as I can see their failure due to it being part of gamepass and a much bigger IP to work with has made the crushing reality of delivering a good product sink in. You've managed to avoid their failures and hopefully you won't have to deal with too much of it in the future. It is a really fun game let's just hope the developers stay reformed enough to make it last.
