This game had a lot of issues when it it launched, but it's really good now. The new paid DLC class that was added to the game is pretty fun as well.






I'd recommend it if you like Left 4 Dead type co-op games, action that includes a mix of melee and shooting, and games that focus on gameplay and general atmosphere over storytelling.

Is the gameplay loop similar to Vermintide 2?

I tried Back 4 Blood after Left 4 Dead, but it was trash. Haven't tested anything close to it since then.

Yes, but with more of a focus on ranged attacks. You can still build melee focused classes, but ranged weapons aren't limited to only certain classes like in Vermintide 2. In Darktide, every class can use guns.

I also thought that game was awful. Darktide is considerably better, IMO.

Terrible for new players.

How so? While I do think the game is at it's best on harder difficulties with fully unlocked skill trees, I think getting to that point is still pretty fun.
