This was one of the coolest runs I’ve ever played on any Tide game. Its something I’ve wanted to do for quite awhile, a full cinematic run with “some” semblance of real tactics, room clearing, disciplined volleys, bayonet charges, shovel shenanigans, and a cohesive 40k theme to it. This one wasn't really meant to push the difficulty, its just regular Damnation. There will be lots of insane Auric maelstrom missions coming soon. It was all about atmosphere and immersion taking in the sights and sounds. The Lucius pattern lasgun is absolutely bonkers right now with Deadshot, Crits costing no ammo node, Surgical, and Onslaught. Some really great moments throughout, from a Beast of Nurgle being cut apart by coordinated lasfire, multiple bayonet charges, a breach and clear through smoke, and the neverending fun that are Krak Grenades. As for the skins themselves, they look great, they’re a very solid representation of Krieg. But I am obviously not a fan of the price hike for less content. Previous packs that cost less had more items and weapon skins. Fatshark need to do a MUCH better job of quality control (clipping, bugs, and hair removal issues) and of providing value in their cosmetic packs. Which means weapon skins for the shovel and Lucius, dongles, and the “premium” hats need to all be included in the bundle, not separated out for even more money. And the timing (while naturally good for them from a business perspective with high player counts), is really not ideal from the consumer side. They still have a LOT of goodwill to earn back from the community, and immediately jumping into price gouging at the first real opportunity is a bad look. Penance gear and more earnable cosmetics need to be more common moving forward. So far this has been a very solid update, but there’s still a lot of work to do to fix the crafting and insane grind, and add maps, weapons, and additional content to make this game a classic.
