- Afternoon folks, time to get our teetch firmly stuck into Necromunda Hired Gun. One of the few FPS games to be set within the Warhammer 40,000 setting. Thus far i've put some 30 hours into this game and I feel it fair to say it's looking like "40k Doom"

I'll be streaming straight after this so feel free to jump in! th-cam.com/video/jicanO-eXXk/w-d-xo.html
Be prepared for a livestream 5 minutes after this video stops where i'll be talking through some of my thoughts. Showcasing gameplay on a higher difficulty and of course, chatting about all things Necromunda.
Please, don't forget to tell us if the game is short or not ! Thx !!!!
Omg, please let this be good, please let this be good...i REALLY need a good WH40k game about now xD
@@deniseseron7599 I give an estimate of game play duration in the video but feel free to ask in the stream after.
Airsickhydra are you ok dude Haven't seen a new video yet in a year. Everything ok with you
Good friend, most of my content is on my second channel. Roll Corruption. Gaming kinda fell by the way the last year with a lot of "life" stuff. Thanks for checking in though and watch this space.
Sounds good!
Squeaky toys for the best boy
Interesting that you say you haven't had any bugs beside a mouse cursor vanishing, but in your footage your weapon vanishes from your hands at one point and you seemingly didn't notice! No mention of the game breaking press melee to win (while being invincible) issue either? Nothing wrong with liking the game but you could probably be a bit more balanced. This game has some major issues at the moment, I'm very disappointed they seemingly haven't learned from Deathwing's launch.
One question - As a 40k fan will I gush over the story and the lore?
Something imo very important when comparing it with DOOM is: yes, it has bloody gore melee takedowns.
Sadly they dont fill your HP, like in "Space Marine" which they realy should to reward brutal aggressive playstyle
Autosanguine gives HP for any close up kill, so that overlaps a little :D
Oh hey Hydra, how the hell are ya!?
Yeh Airsick is Bk, nice review as alway. Game is on my to play list.
as a word of advice - use the ability to break shields when encountering enemies like at 13:00. Shields eat unreasonable number of bullets.
game is good, but is unbalanced. it follows old-school approach to health management but it does not have medpacks placed in levels to allow you to have any form of healing that is independent from life leech when returning fire pushing you to abusing melee kill systems for i-frames and health frops. And I think it is a major problem for me, abilities are cool, guns kick like a mule, enemies die reasonably fast just as you do unless it's an ogryn or armored vehicle. A good average quality level game worth the time of warhammer and FPS fan.
Seems pretty fun, glad to have preordered it
That was TASTY
You do still videos or was this your last? Or am i too stupid? Edit, you became father congratulation, this explains it, time is sacred, enjoy yourself
One day I may return, but I can't catch 5 minutes now, let alone an hour.
I wonder if this game is gonna be something akin to this : th-cam.com/video/0a78kzAffb4/w-d-xo.html ?
Aside from the horribly janky controls, I could not see a damn thing in this game. Weapon effects aside, it's really hard to see enemies.unless they're highlighted. And I hate this run and gun, fast paced style of shooter. It's just not fun for me at all. Couple that with a mere 10hr campaign, and I wasn't going to keep it. I liked Deathwing much better, despite it's problems. And I really hate the loot piniata crap from Doom. The hp/shield colorsplosion drive me nuts.
Hope you see this comment although it's been 4 months.... I feel very much the same. Did you end up getting Necromunda? I also abhor fast paced run & gun jumping about shooters but I have adapted a few in the past and played them on highest difficulty in a more grounded realistic way (although Doom'esque kinda games can still be quite immersion breaking with how spongey and fast they are). I reckon I could enjoy Necromunda on hardest difficulty if there was a way to say, turn off lots of the UI, effects and fluff, forego some of the more silly "powers" and if possible only carry 2 weapons rather than 4.... I dunno.... I really like it aesthetically and I'm a huge 40k fan but I'm a grounded realism snob soooo..... It'll be down to how much I can adapt and shoehorn it into being that.
@@CoffeeFiend1 I ended up refunding it. I kept hoping for some refinements, but it's looking like that won't happen.
As for your concerns, There is zero realism here. Movement is very snappy, and extremely fast, with little to no momentum build/loss. The melee animation is very jarring, and looks/feels like it's missing about half the frames it should have. The enemy spawning is one of my major complaints, as they spawn from all directions (think of how police spawn in Cyberpunk, but not so close).
Despite not liking fast paced shooters, I did enjoy Doom 2016, aside from the loot piniata hp stuff. In this Necromunda, you literally trade gunshots with enemies, to regain ho for a moment after taking damage, or through the melee kills.(though I hear they did some minor adjustments to invincibility during melee takedowns, lessening the god mode feeling). I also found enemies very difficult to see, unless they were directly highlighted by the dogs infrared vision, marking targets.
I did not progress far enough to comment further. It was immediately noticeable that I would not enjoy the game, no matter how long I played, and adjusted to the jank. It 'feels' bad to move around.
