Pretty sure it's gonna be closer to WWZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mplayer is not the main attraction like with Darktide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLeon Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 I’m interested, but I have plenty to play right now. By the time I’ll get around to it it’ll probably be on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in the movement and abilities, but in the mission layout and progression. Very live servicey and grindy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 I remember Wade saying the first game was pretty fun for what it was; didn't do anything new or exciting, but what it did do it did it very, very well. I should wait for the next time it's on sale and pick it up. The Anniversary edition on Steam is like $70. That's a bit steep for an older game.

I'm sure that is the case, but I hate not knowing da lore. I feel like I'm missing so much context. Happened with Wukong big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was all set to get WuKong and then I think it was the Fextralife review said that the story and everything was extremely difficult to appreciate and even follow if you didn’t already have a good knowledge of Into The West. That alone made me hold off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That alone made me hold off. I'm not getting that feeling at all with Wukong and Ive picked up the basic premise of the story pretty well. And I'm admittedly almost mentally challenged when it comes to lore. I'm 4.5 chapters in and don't feel like the story is really anything of importance anyway lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dre801 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Been years since I played the original. I remember how punchy and satisfying the guns were in that game. Definitely gonna check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxEvil AshxX Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Fuckin' Mandela effect. I could've sworn this was a Game Pass launch title. I think I was getting it confused with Darktide. Not that I have a problem dropping the cash for it, though. Looks like it'll be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happened with Wukong big time. WH:40K is literally: Pure Human = Good Anything Else = Bad (from perspective of Imperium) But also sometimes Pure Human = Bad And then the goal is to kill everyone who is Bad, even if that also means many Good die in crossfire. There are stories, but they don't really matter. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skillzdadirecta Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Marvel got the license and put out a couple of Warhammer comics a couple of years ago. I got a little familiar with the lore through those. Ialso played the first Space Marine Game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
