This game has so many horrible design decisions for the sake of being challenging it really makes me think if these devs had any intention of designing a fun game. Like even setting aside my distaste for the total cavalier attitude towards mother fucking grey knight power fantasy (having to get widdled down by little shitters with ak47s, hold me back) the game just doesn't feel like it lets you put the tools at your disposal to experiment various tactical roll outs and ways to play.

Pretty sure I have more than a few rant posts in this thread about the poor design decisions made by the devs. The 'cultists shouldnt even be a threat to Grey Knights' complaint is the dumbest complaint there is because yeah it isn't wrong but the game needs some chump level enemies at the beginning.

As for other ways to play, the devs nerfed every playstyle except melee blitzing. Either directly (taunt used to be a targetable aoe instead of a pbaoe so you used it in a ranged comp to pull enemies out of cover so your shooters could light them up) or indirectly (heavy armor tanking was very strong until they saturated the game with armour break weapons with the two DLCs). The Dreadnought DLC was horribly implemented and the entire playerbase hated it but instead of listening to their playerbase and unfucking it they tried to just bandaid fix it with the Assassin DLC although I'm not sure if it was an accident that the Callidus is so broken in the early game or if they actually know enough about their game to have designed her on purpose.
Lots of reasons to be very concerned about the upcoming Deathwatch game from the same studio.
