    To be honest, while fans of warhammer *generally* liked the game at launch, the servers were super prone to crashing and the skill trees were woefully underdeveloped. I think the PS5 players got the best launch experience because the game was finally firing on all cylinders by the time that came around

    Warms my heart to see new players. Welcome to the pain/fun. Little tip, every weapon has a special attack of some sort. Some are more useful than others. Check your keybinds and see what the button for it is. I mention it because the Devil's Claw you're using has a parry for the special attack and with a good sword, you can literally oneshot those dual-wielding axe guys. With your pistol you just like... do a little shove. Not very good. Most of the guns don't have very good specials.

    In my opinion the best class to start with is Zealot since its a melee focused class and learning the ins and outs of melee is key to surviving higher difficulties as for Psyker I would suggest using only the force swords and staffs once you unlock them to learn how to control your peril in high intensity situations

    Exclusive games have always been a pain for gamers, benefiting only console makers. Growing up, I hated how console wars limited access-I just wanted to play everything but couldn’t afford every system. Sticking to PC meant suffering through terrible ports of exclusives.
    Exclusivity often backfires, too-like with Sony during the PS3 era and now the PS5, or Microsoft with the Xbox One. At least Microsoft has eased up, bringing more games to PC and even Sony. Helldivers 2, for example, could’ve had a larger player base if it weren’t PS/PC-exclusive.
    As for Darktide, yeah, it sucks it skipped consoles at launch, but in hindsight, it might’ve been for the best. I played the pre-order beta (because I hate myself LOL), and it was a mess-practically alpha-level and even after release it might as well have been still alpha. Back then, the game had broken servers, no crafting, few missions, and awful penances. Even the community manager was a nightmare. Combat was solid, though, which gave me hope, and it’s much better now. A lot of players dodged a bullet waiting for the fixes, whether waiting by choice or otherwise.

    I mean, you didn't missed anything, at launch the game was pretty buggy, it was basically incomplete and had a lot of flaws. Past year was playable but still had a lot of issues, and rn is the best time to play the game. Good thing you're playing it around these times! It looks really polished and it's really fun.
