Hmm, i do find it hard to believe they think its financially wise. At least if they start developing such a game now or release a game like that now. There is too much backlash to what is perceived woke due to streamera bringing it to peoples attention and more and more people is fatigued to the endless political bullshit. It seems to me its more the "ethical" part and proving a point. White men are racists and lbqthr+-× and women are oppressed. The fact that they treat white men badly does not enter into their equation, which is a big reason their ship is slowly sinking as white men are the biggest customer base in aaa gaming.
I think the issue is that game dev culture as a whole has turned really woke, and when you eventually get into that whole sphere because you're surrounded with it you believe it's a norm. They're making games for themselves, and not for an actual, existing audience, at least not one which is so big that it is profitable. Fucking Zoomers, such a retarded generation of people.
It's so paradoxal to be a game dev and also woke, because a lot of what wokeness means is being against gamers/gamer culture. SBI has already admitted they're going after gamers and the idea is basically to burn the whole industry down, they know exactly what they're doing and it's not trying to make the companies profitable.
And that's the type of people game devs wants to be. It's so fucking dumb it's almost unbelievable.
Indie games is again our hope and our way out of it, they prove them over and over what idiots they are and how to do it correctly. Eventually they'll get it, like when financially bankrupt, or close to
It has been reported that some players were displaying hurtful behaviors or comments in-game. We do not tolerate that and will take action to prevent it.
First and foremost, we kindly ask you to remain respectful, mature and mannerly with your fellow Space Marines. You can never know how old the other players may be, how their day is going, how sensitive they may be… overall, you never know who your brothers and sisters are… It could even be 😏 … you don’t want to insult Henry Cavill, brother, no you don’t.

"Oh heavens to betsy! Someone called me a worthless fucktard in a game while I was disembowling their teammate with a chainsword after having put a bolter round through someone's skull! I felt violated and hurt and unsafe in quite possibly the darkest franchise in history. What ever shall I do? Please, please Focus make it stop!"
Seriously, these snowflakes can fuck right off. Game experience may change during online play. It's because of dipshits like this that we can't talk to the enemy team anymore in FPS games. Turn off voice/chat in your settings if you're a sensitive Nancy and quit bitching about a non-issue.
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

Game difficulty is also fucked up now, across the board. It just emphasizes how shitty melee combat in this game is. The new mission basically consists of mobs zerging and gangbanging you non-stop.

Forgot about this post, but i think you're entirely right about this. The only thing i find so puzzling is that no matter how you slice and dice it, there should be teams out there that hate wokeness. Yet... They don't seem to exist. Whenever i speak to people in the real world about this bullshit, well, i can count on one finger how many have tried berating me for anything. Most are against it. So why are seemingly every single team, big or small part of this collective madness?
Fun, much as I dislike the Tyranid as a bit boring, like Zerg from Starcraft but to a Warhammer enthusiast the actual density of some of the fights and proper swarms must be something and it is nice with a bit of a break from the default pick of yet more Ork.
The loading times though, first it has to load and then it has to initialize the game. First time in a very long while, since getting an SSD, that I've had actual loading times. Comparably to the HDD days these still aren't that bad but it is the longest load times I've observed in years.
Nice to see more of Markus though, had to do some googling early on to get into what some of the terminology was and what it actually meant to be and go through these things and how the game just skipped over a bit of what happened at the end of the first game.
(Doesn't matter too much though and the prologue mission / tutorial still leans into it a bit.)
Also feels very online and co-op focused but it works as a bit of a solo experience with decent AI support that doesn't get in the way or get themselves killed off at the most inopportune of times, or all the time depending on game.
Runs fantastic and looks excellent too, coarse with how expensive video games are to actually acquire these days this is through a later on discount several patches on, although its almost become a bit of a better way to acquire games now. They are back to the 60 Euro something price range, with less but still some bugs. (But now this is only through a 40% or greater price cut, games have gotten really expensive this last year. )
EDIT: I'm only at mission 2 though so there's little to say, early game setpieces and showing off some of the larger scale and scope of things have been the games thing while presenting early gear upgrades and gameplay mechanios.
Apparently I'm getting near some end-mission encounter everyone uses to gauge the games CPU performance with a real show of what the swarm tech can be used for.
