Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2

You can preorder this thing now Steam. If you want to wait till September and take a risk.
 
Awesome!I heard this, but was away from the computer. WIsh it showed more / was new.
 
After Spacehulk, this one got me attention !

The first one was good but VERY linear, hopefully this one will be more like a space opera model.

Alas, what we really need is a true heir to Warhammer Dawn of War, now that was an instant classic.

What?

You mean a transgender person. And I've never once thought about the sexual orientation of a video game writer before, don't care. As long as the game is fun and has great gameplay, I don't think about the writer for one second.

They could be a stupid Reich-winger, anti-American Trump-tard bigot, but if the game is cool, I'll still play it.

Your decision is your decision!

Though I may look into this to find out just how much of what you say is accurate, or if it's sensationalised. I don't doubt that there are people of various backgrounds and beliefs working in any modern project... I mean, after all you're talking about ARTISTS.


Just looked it up. She joked about not casting white men in roles once on twitter in 2017?

Is it a good fit for the incredibly hyper-masculine grimdark world of 40K? I mean, if you look at the Imperium as 'the good guys' then it probably isn't a good thing.

Not pre-ordering it goes without saying, but it wouldn't stop me from playing the game if its actually good. Definitely a red flag though which will make me wait until there is a good amount of reviews and commentary from trustworthy sources before deciding whether its worth the time and money.

We've known about this since the game was first revealed in 2021.

For what it's worth, he left Saber in 2023 and is working at Motive Studio for EA now. That could just mean he finished the job and moved onto his next project.

Looks ok but I don't think it's going to be anything better than Darktide your character is clunky I do like the indoor areas that stuff looks nice.
 
Can't f'ing wait. Loved the original, and this looks even better. Conveniently, I'm on vacation the week of Sept 9th, so any potential yellow or red flags will be reported by the time I get back. Barring any unanticipated shenanigans, I'll pay full price for it, which is rare for me these days.

Looks nice. Never played a Warhammer game before, but Space Marine looks like Gears of War with more melee, which isn't a bad thing to me. Never played the first one so will probably go through that one first.

Try 4Ok Darktide I don't think this game will compete with Darktide too much going on at one time just wrecks immersion Darktide is trash mob heavy enough.

Haven't tried Datktide yet. Is it good?

I love CoOp games, is it an easy shooter to pick up and play?

And you think DT is better than SM2?
