Why haven't u reviewed ~ King Arthur : Knight's Tale ~ Please Review tht @ACG
Its one of the Rarest Gem which underrated in X-com style storytelling and King arthur mythos is super new to me.. i'm not fully into tht lore. but this game needs your Highlights Karak
You mentioned using a rating scale of Buy, Wait for Sale or Never Touch, but didn't actually end up rating it. Maybe I'm stupid, but I assume it's a buy? I enjoy w40k, but I really wasn't sure for 40 dollars haha.
@@Arclibs He does that for many videos. i think he says something like "If ur warhammer 40K fan its a buy"
Hey I just got hit by by a dude using your logo asking me to download Whatsapp, assuming that wasn't you/one of your bots?
@@Tauntingwolf I get those on from many youtube channels its not bot its spam..
The X-Com style was made for Warhammer. I'm glad they're finally getting it right.
About freaking time somebody emulated what makes XCOM fun and incorporated that into a 40K game. I thought Battlescector was going to be it, but it was too stingy with it's "MUST BE EXACTLY LIKE THE TTGAME or DIE, HERECTIC" gameplay. A good game in this genre is about speed, traversal options, and just over all flair of the combat. I will definitely be checking out this title at some point. thanks for the review!
play Mechancious 40K xcom mechnicious vs necrons
yeah, mechanicus was pretty great as well. nice to have more!
It was done before in the original Chaos Gate game, which I still prefer personally over this one. So far it's still the only Warhammer video game that's come the closest to emulating the actual tabletop game.
@@rtsgod put 25+ hours into it
mechanicus and mordheim are both basically this
the mechanicus soundtrack was so goddamn good, hoped to get more of that style.
The single-sentence thing I find is a really good streamlining technique. If they spoke every line in their dialogue rather than a single, pertinent one we’d be complaining about the overwhelming volume of speaking.
Fraxis really captured lightning in a bottle with the xcom reboot and nothing has really come close to it (not even Phoenix Point which had xcom vets behind it). This looks like the best contender to that crown so far though
the Mechanicus game was more enjoyable to me than XCOM but mostly because the soundtrack and stuff put it over the top for me.
Gears Tactics is great.
if you have that itch, check out Troubleshooter: Abandoned Children. I've not played it myself, but I hear it's great if you're into the combat/builds
@@raknikmik Yeah best so far for me sadly it needed more map and mission variety.
@@Sammo212 The guy that made that soundtrack is also doing the one for Ixion and it is also great.
Loved Mechanicus, and am looking forward to this one. Warhammer games seem to finally be hitting it out of the park lately.
@LiL Bo pEEp Darktide has no reason to not be great. They nailed vermintide.
@@totalmetaljacket789 especially after all the work they've done on vermintide 🙏🏼
@@totalmetaljacket789 oof
@@xenophon5354 Yeah they really dropped the fuckin ball with that one.
I recently picked up WH40K Mechanicus on sale, and really enjoyed it. I think I'll like this one too. Mechanicus has just the best music, too.
Never been an XCOM fan, but I do like WH40K's lore and illustration.
Spot on with Mechanicus soundtrack - some great stuff :)
Yeah the music is next level in that game. Might be one of the most perfect kind for that game
The "voice" acting in mechanicus is amazing. I love it. And the music is scary good as well.
Mechanicus is better. Chaos gate is decent.
The gameplay is better in Chaos Gate, while the soundtrack is better in Mechanicus.
i hope that in a year they release more factions, enemies and/or location , or at least a capable Modder do it
Don't hold your breath ....
@@zigzagkill8153 why not?khorne asset are already in game and the modder comunity is more than capable when properly motivated.
@@filiasnox1116 If't like the modding with xcom they probably will be mods for rebalancing ,change of skins or adding new weapons or items ,I don't think both the devs or modderes will add a whole new faction with a story to it
Not having Mechanicus brought up during the soundtrack bit is criminal, ACG...its heresy, even.
Going by what's shown here it's Nurgle and Khorne featuring. Wandering if there are any other NPCs besides the Inquisitor and the Tech-priest, would be good to see a Canoness and the Sisters of Battle pop up even if only for a few missions.
Does look like a rare example of a good game based on a GW IP. Shame about the voice acting and story Aaron Dembski-Bowden has written some of the best 40K books.
They really love Nurgle's forces as the main antangonist rep in games these days, kind of wish Slaanesh or Tzeench could get the spotlight now and then.
@@rainfoxhound8199 Maybe it's because Slaanesh and Tzeentch are more about magic than brute force, which might be more problematic in terms of game mechanics?
@@rainfoxhound8199 tzeench doesn't lose unless he wants to so wouldn't make much sense if he lost unless it was a way to set up a win for him. Don't see how you'd beat tzeench without nerfing him hard and people wouldn't like that.
@@thelitmango6333 Tzeench looses all the time, for all Tzeenchs forsight it is not omnipotent.
@@nebadin that's exactly why he has Kairos Fateweaver
We saw many grenade throws but not with grenades that have something written on them! The most important part in war is communicating, and what better way to communicate than write "Wrath" on a grenade you throw at your enemy?
You calling them the Grey Wardens even if it was a slip up is totally perfect. This looks like real good times.
nobody cares nerd.
I feel like it's worth addressing something about this game's art direction. You mentioned it has less of that gritty beaten-up feel that 40K games usually go for, and that this game looks "cleaner" in that sense. Even that detail is a thematic lore-based decision. The Grey Knights are an "elite among elites" faction, they have many overlaps with what other Space Marines do, but with a more specific focus and superior enhancements than the already-superhuman Space Marines of other chapters. This is also helped by enhanced equipment, which typically looks more like it's brand new, while other chapters have gear which runs like it's brand new, but shows the traces of its thousands of years of maintenance in that surface vineer of cracks and grime.
The Emperor Protec
Im sorry but it looks cartoony. Say it, cartoony. It's a design choice that doesn't feel executed properly and comes off as cheap and buzz-lightyeary
@@hypno5690 I don't personally agree, but I can understand how you got to that conclusion. I think it's perfectly reasonable not to like this game's aesthetic, especially if you prefer the more grity battle-worn look of other 40K games. I'm just explaining that there's a lore-related reason why it makes sense here while the dirtier look fits for other groups in the setting.
You can't look at that inquisitor and not think cartoony, right? How is that grimdark and not fortnite or something!?
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that.
Subscribed for the line at @2:18 about the cash register. Beautiful word smithing
Thank you for the in-depth and detailed review- as always. I had guys on a Facebook group saying they really enjoyed it, but I saw a lot of mixed ratings on steam all of a sudden out of nowhere. I figure I'll go ahead and take the plunge and start sending demons back to the warp after my exams!
Been having fun on it so far today, pretty much Xcom 2 and Gears Tactics in the warhammer universe.
I like the sound of the single sentence being spoken from a paragraph of dialog. My eyes read a lot faster than dialog gets spoken, which in a game like this, I will inevitably do instead of waiting to listen to the conversation as the gameplay extends out for dozens of hours. By reducing it down to the highlight of the paragraph, it ensures the best part of the writing is still spoken and draws emphasis to it, while the voice actor still adds the emotion and energy to the character to put me in the moment, and understand what the character is feeling, as I quickly read through their dialog. Sounds like a pretty well thought out feature, to be honest.
The graphics in the role-playing segment remind me a lot of Fable, to which I mean as a high compliment.
Love the editing style and the animated Karak on the thumbnail! As if these reviews weren't on point already! Leaving a comment for that algorithm and shall watch fully later 🥳
Awesome review! Going to pick this one up, it looks fantastic
Dude.... I came here sceptical about someone who revieved the game pre release for review. Then I heard you plug to not as popular you tubers like myself and I decided to stick around. Humble and looking out for your fellow content creators deserves a sub in my book. Cheers!
Loving the new overlays and stuff that you're using. Slick.
Christ, that's not a grenade, that's a war crime in a can.
Thank you for covering this game Karak..looking forward to playing it! :D
Not enough Warhammer 40k games out there.
PC Gamer has an article on the best ones available - 44 listed in total
Loving the new Thumbnail format
Divinity 2 was one of my favorite games, so I’m hoping this can fill the void I’ve been feeling lately.
The more Warhammer stuff I see, the more I want to learn about it. The lore and universe just seem so dense, it's like someone actually thought all this stuff through, instead of adding something just because it's cool. Anyway thanks karak I think I might check this out.
Definitely check it out, it's a bit of a rabbit-hole but the world is incredible and is imo the best fictional universe ever created. i started my 40k journey this year. just bought my first set of Marines and am currently reading one of the books. i'd reccomend Bricky for a more humorous approach to the lore, Weshammer and Leutin09 for the more in depth stuff.
😂😂😂 Literally the opposite is true. Warhammer 40k is just a huge amalgamation of thing the various game creators, and black library authors thought was cool smashed together. It is incredibly dense though you are right about that. Not to discredit the efforts of GW and the black libraries attempt to edit and retcon their universe into something cohesive, but he illusion of a huge preplanned creation is mostly a happy accident.
Thank you for the excellent review which is what we have come to expect from you. Keep up the good work!
I would like to thank you for reviewing this, it had my attention cause I love Warhammer (fantasy and 40k), was hoping this would fix and itch.
This was one of the best done reviews I've seen of any game. Nice job.
awesome review acg! :) Thinkin' about getting this now.
I like the one paragraph only thing with speaking, as I read a lot quicker than people talk so I get through the sections between battles quicker than if I have to listen to someone as I struggle to read if someone's talking the words over the top of me reading them
Bro, you...are...the MAN!! As usual you do not disappoint my guy. Subbed a while ago and you still deliver. Was on the fence about this game and as usual, you break that fence down and make an easy choice for me. Keep it up brother 💪🏿
Thank you for the thorough review as always sir 🙏
Thanks for the review. No mention of denuvo?
@ACG you have an art for analogy and metaphor.
First vid of yours I've seen. Thanks!
I can't shake the feeling a lot of ACG's one liners in this review were intentionally made to drive 40k fans crazy
;)
Wow, youre sharp, nobody gets anything by you.
@@BlinkBoyBrad You must be fun at parties.
Warhammer 40K: Mechanicus had an epic soundtrack. I wish that was the case here too. :(
grey knights are my favorite chapter by far, I bought this game before I even knew what genre it was, I'm not the biggest fan of xcom but I might like it more in a 40k presentation
I am amazed you did not compare this game to WH40k: Mechanicus
Came for the review, stayed for the comments. I'm having a good time with WH: Inquisitor: Martyr, but this looks fun too.
I've waited 24 years for this sequel. I am so stoked.
My ACG shirt just came in today. It looks so good and the material is so freaking nice dude!!!!
Long time fan, thank you for all you do and for turning me onto Happy Console Gamer as well. Great review as always.
Just gotta say man, you are hands down the best reviewer period. You out major publications to shame with how thorough and professional you are with your reviews.
I’ve been playing this all morning… I’ve played xcom, phoenix, mechanicus, a bunch of others like partisans, broken lines, othercide, also triangle strategy, fire emblem, as well as this new one Wartales.
This game has a feel which none of those games, not even xcom, has captured. I’d say there are some UI problems in this game currently, but I might get more used to it.
I think we have something special on our hands boys.
I think we have something that is a real disappointment.
The review of the audio is pretty indepth in comparison to other reviewers. I agree with you based on the hours of streams I watched.
Played so much of the og chaos gate in my youth. Hype for this
Damn, this game looks on point! I hear the few detractors but visuals (even the ridiculous huds) look solid. Might have to dive into it. Entertaining review too.
Mechanicus really is the pinnacle of Warhammer universe music. I wonder when we will get something on par with that in the music department.
Random Games Inc. took what Firaxis Games had already established with the XCOM franchise and they've implemented the same kind of gameplay into their latest release. They've done a solid job in the process. Warhammer 40k Chaos Gate DaemonHunters is a day one purchase as far as I'm concerned and I can't wait to play it. Otherwise, thanks as always Karak for another honest, unbiased and detailed review! I really appreciate the hard work!
Can't wait to check this review out bro, love your content.
I wasn't aware this was Dragon Age when you started calling the Grey Knights Grey Wardens 😂
The mixing of 2 games is always better than one
you can also use requisition to hire knights via the roster.
Love your anime dude on the video thumbnail, ACG!!! 😁
Does the squad size eventually open up to 6 members ala XCom or does it stay at 4 for the whole time?
4 all the way down unfortunately. The abilities aren't too fun either, wargear can be incredibly dull, and the gray knights are made out of tissue paper. It really hits more than it misses, and has hurt ACGs standing with me a little as one of my most trusted review sources.
You gotta review King Arthur: Knight's Tale. It's my favorite Xcom-like, and it deserves way more attention than it has gotten
So it's basically X-Com meets 40k.
The cleaner artstyle reminds me of Mechanicus, closer in proportion and style to the actual miniatures.
Thank you brother.Opening game of 2022 for me :)
Wow. I was almost sure it would come out mediocre at best. Now it's a 100% buy. Thanks for this great review! :)
Rreminds me of Mechanicus a lot, and I loved that. Still waiting for a sale, but mostly since I just have more games lined up currently than time to play.
Thanks for the great review!
I kinda wish there were more variations to the chaos enemies. Most games when they bring in chaos, it's usually Nurgle's variant.
I just started playing Xcom like a week ago, i just cracked 100 hours in WOTC lol. IF this is anything like Xcom, im gonna dump some hours into that. I watch this guy named TapCat. Older dude, calm, chill vids.
Can't wait to spam overwatch for the Emperor
Does anyone know if this is playable with a controller? Thinking about playing it on the steam deck.
The FPS drops during your gameplay, were they in 4k, 1080p? I didn't notice you mentioning the resolution sorry 😊♥️
I think it was 4k. At least that's what resolution was selected when he showed us the settings screen: 3840x2160
Would you recommend easy or normal for people new not looking to get frustrated, but not a cakewalk?
I subscribed because you first said to subscribe to other people. Love that attitude
if this works on the steam deck, I'm definitely getting it soon. I'm a big Grey Knights and XCOM fan.
An excellent review - I just got this on Humble Bundle and will be playing.
now we need this style of game for deathwatch
Is this coming to PC game pass ?
or just steam/epic stores
This is the only Warhammer game I have been interested in.
Looks better than anything else they've ever put out that's for sure.
darktide? space marine 2?
ok dude
@@spectre722 I just learned of those 2 games after I wrote this post.
Every time he said Grey Wardens instead of Grey Knights I thought of the characters from Dragon Age and kept getting confused
Was hyped but then saw the corruption of matt wards canon of grey knights wielding a khornate sword, heresy, extermanatus declared
The service studs space marines have in their skulls represent not rank but years of service.
Did you review this on the Steam deck? Is it playable and runs smooth?
This game has one of the most brutal difficulty jumps I’ve ever experienced in a game. It started off so easy that I wanted to bump the difficulty up to hard from normal, then suddenly I got into a mission where there were literally double the amount of enemies and way more of them were elite. It became 3x more difficult with zero gradual transition at all. It’s still a fun game, but it annoys the hell out of me that you can’t just abandon a mission. I’ve had to restart the game twice already due to getting stuck in a literally unbeatable mission with an underperforming squad.
Thanks for the video
F'yeah! I like seeing warhammer games getting good reviews thanks for the video dude.
Don't forget to platform in the beginning please.
PC only for anyone wondering.
Okay but what's the install size? Cuz if it's 121GB like King Arthur: Knight's tale you can forget it.
A Husqvarna reference? Did not expect that.
This and warhammer:DarkTide were in my wishlist for long time….now this turned good im waiting for darktide
Is there ultrawide support?
Thank you for the good review
Looks great. I hope Darktide will also turn out great. Good time to be a 40k fan.
As a DeepRock player cant wait for darktide
Steam page says full Controller Support - true? Tested?
Looks fun. But I still have Battlesector to get through first...
love the Warhammer games, especially when they are Turnbased Combat, always lots of fun, thanks for the review..
Can someone tell me if the gameplay feels like Adeptus Mechanikus? I loved that game, especially the soundtrack.
Waiting for this review.
It looks cartoony while Space Marine looked accurate.
Can't really put my finger on it
Is this game only on PC? I’d really love to be able to play on console.
It may be like xcon, but chaosgate(1) was released late 90s early 20s.
This is more streamlined from the first version.
This latest release doeant have a skirmish mode
(Choose armies scrap it out on a map)
Regardless of agreeing or disagreeing with anything you've stated, this is a really great review in my opinion. This is my first time seeing your videos, and it's pretty clear that this is something you should be doing. Keep up the good work, ACG.
I’ve never heard a better summary of a purity seal than this
