Blue Man Group But With Chainsaws
WH40k Space Marine is a very good marriage of third person shooter and hack n slash, and I would recommend the game on that fact alone. The weapons feel great, being a big bulky dude that shoots big bulky guns and swings big bulky swords feels big and bulky, and it is topped off with appropriate amounts of violence that puts chest hair to work. The graphics are great, the sound is fantastic, and the combat fun. However, it is also very linear and on the shorter end. There are hidden collectibles, but it's more exposition that ties the okay story together. The combat is great but ends up being same-y after a while. There's not much that changes up, and honestly, the cutscenes are nice but they constantly interrupt the flow of the game. There's a few gimmick sections, but they're gimmicks. The boss fights are also terrible since they're just gauntlets of enemies. The game's emphasis on melee combat also kind of falls apart when you realize that you can headshot enemies fairly easily with the right loadout, and as the game gets harder, I started to lean on it more and more as being swarmed is a good way to see a game over screen. If you just want a fun romp in the Warhammer 40k universe as a casual fan, I say play this game. If you're not a fan at all and just want to crack some skulls, it's still a good time. I don't think you need to know anything about WH40k in order to enjoy it, but having some passing knowledge is a nice bonus to get what's going on. I think I figured out what the game was going for with its protagonist, but unfortunately the game never got a sequel and probably never will. I bought the game at $10 when it released on GOG, but seeing it at $40 makes me not recommend it at that price. $10 is a fancy sandwich, a drink, and a small bag of chips. That feels like an appropriate price for this game and it being four times that for a ten year old game that's short and linear is just SEGA price gouging at that point.
Hilft dir das weiter?
