This game is great. Everyone who is into space fantasy loves 40k. Most 40k games are sub par knock offs of other popular games, some form of turn based or real time strategy game. We all remember playing Dawn of War or watching our siblings play and just thinking how cool the whole 40K universe is. Darktide is the first person godsend we all want in a slew of bad 40k videogames. Fatshark did an incredible job with VT2 and everyone had massive hopes for this game when it was first announced. I played the closed beta and the "prelaunch beta" and racked up many hours in the game. It IS a great game. More vermintide fun which is exactly what I want, but in the way cooler setting of 40k. The atmosphere, music, combat. You will read about people singing its praises for these categories, and it is deserved. The issue though, is that FatShark clearly has a gem of a game they are covering in absolute filth. We had so much more at launch with vermintide 2 and it is STAGGERING how much they have tried to push the envelope with the term "minimum viable product". They obviously had multiple new systems in place and scrapped em throughout the 4 different delays this game saw, resulting in them copy pasting the talents system from vermintide2 in the most uninspired way possible. We were told only 4 classes because the were going to be SO MUCH different than the career system in vermintide2. What we got instead is just the exact same thing as careers, and 8 less of them. OH but guess what, they plan to roll out new classes quarterly and "are still debating if they will be free or paid". ILL GIVE YOU TWO GUESSES, BUT YOU'LL ONLY NEED ONE FOR WHAT THEY WILL DO. Every progression system is RNG grind, not fun and deterministic grinding. You want a force sword for your psyker since its a psyker exclusive weapon? Good luck, i played mine to 28 and went from levels 3 to 26 without seeing a single force sword in the hourly RNG shop. Whatever, I will just go craft a sword and upgrade it myself. NOPE, didn't carry that system from VT2. Wanna experiment with gear? Sorry, maybe you will get a random emperor's gift after 15~ games that is the weapon you want to try out and play with. 70+ guns in the game at launch? LOL 40 of those are literally different laz or auto guns with differences as major and game changing as "full auto vs semi auto". Special weapon attacks on every weapon? HA its a dam on/off button for a flashlight or a terrible weak melee attack on all of them.

There is a gem here, the gameplay is good, and fatshark deserves praise for making the best first person combat system I have every played and refining it even further in darktide. However, they also deserve scorn for all the missing systems, and releasing a BARELY viable game missing nearly all core features that FatShark said we would have on launch. DONT FORGET THOUGH, the cash shop is in game now and fully functional. With the lovely "buy 2100 coins but the skin costs 2400 coins and wouldnt you know it, we don't sell coins in bundles besides 2100 and 4000. only available for 24 more hours!" Absolute scumbag practice THEY BOUGHT INTO. In VT2 you could buy skins for ACTUAL CASH THROUGH STEAM. This is anti consumer and anti gamer. If the game was F2P, these are pretty excusable systems to let the devs make money, BUT YOU PAID FOR THE GAME.

Buy this game on sale, and get it at least a year and a half after launch because that is when this will be out of early access and have full features. The game going gold today is an absolute lie and scam from FatShark and their investors.

WAIT TO BUY THIS GAME

This game has been on my radar since the teaser announcement. With nearly 300 hours in VT2, I really felt like I got a great game for my money. I liked the gameplay so much, I would constantly go back to play in between other games to max out another career option and when new paid classes came out, I would buy them to show support for the devs, Fat Shark. Bought the DLC's to get all the maps and the harder difficulty. I was beyond excited to play the sci-fi version of the game I really enjoyed.

This game if we are to draw conclusions from the beta is not worth your money. The music, the environments, the atmosphere is all incredible. Excellent enemy designs that look really cool and are memorable.

The gameplay systems however, are not even a side-grade to VT2. Everything is strictly worse. And the nail in the coffin is Fat Shark is not going to support mods, so modders can't even go through and fix the game for them. Optimization is terrible. Would be constantly bouncing between 60-20 fps during hordes. The framerate stutter issue was so bad and often my eyes actually hurt to look at the screen after extended playtime. The animations and speed of the game felt terrible too. Every single animation felt like I was pushing through water, it was all so slow and blunt. The base movement speed felt like crawling and after your stamina ran out for a sprint, the no stam sprint felt like walking. All the classes should move at empty stamina ogryn speed at least. Also, they have said that they plan to either release more classes for free in the future or as paid DLC, like the outcast engineer and the sister of thorns. This is one of the biggest turn offs of this game IMO. We had cool, distinct, interesting characters with the U5 from VT2 and now we have generic forgettable interactions with no flavor to draw you in. We got 3 careers for 5 characters in VT2, now we get 1 class/character with them expecting us to buy the rest. Not to mention these basic characters are so generic and copy paste from VT2, they didn't even try with the Zealot Preacher. Its actually just saltzpyre zealot. The trait system in Darktide 2 did not present depth or any interesting choices. Generic "this skill is stronger/lower cooldown/ extended range" Nothing that changes how that classes gimmic is played.

To say I feel terrible about Fat Shark's work is an understatement. I would recommend picking up this game a year or two after release when on sale if the beta we played this last weekend is even remotely similar to the gold version of the game.
