Started playing not too long ago and this is definitly an improvement in most aspects from the first game. I have developed an odd love of Handmaiden Kerillian with a giant axe. That thing just feels stright up busted. Also Knight Kruber with a huge mallet.

I was looking forward to Unchained Sienna, but mechanically she's very simplistic and flat to play, plus her melee selection is pretty anemic.

I absolutely love fighting the Stormfiends. They're great addition to the boss roster for sure. I know I'm in for a good time when that music kicks in.

Is it really that hard (or necessary) to get reds? I've mostly been rerolling items and upgrading them with all the scrap I've gotten from other items, but I only play casually until friends buy this game on sale. I live in a region that sells it dirt cheap, atm.

Loot is nice, but only in that it allows me to fight harder rats. I really enjoy the gameplay. Also the banter, and I'm glad it looks like they're patching it to make that play more evenly.

One mutator I wish we could have is to select a single faction to play against (except for faction specific maps/areas). Beastmen would have problems though, given they seem to lack alot of specials and an additional boss.

Still, having that oldschool us vs Skaven feeling would be nice. The Stormfiend is probably my favourite boss, too.

Haven't played in a while, but I like what they did with Kerillian's Greatsword. Feels good to use.

Basically it sounds like they're replacing paid DLC map packs with a cosmetic store that Lohner will run, in-game. From that point forward, they'll be releasing alot of maps for free, with the Drachenfels maps being the first of those. I kind of expect to see alot of older maps coming back, ala Drachenfels.

I had one baller Waywatcher Kerillian game where my Swift Bow spat multiple penetrating, ricocheting arrows. She was a gattling gun and the only reason we failed was because a Minotaur blindsided us and knocked three of us into lava.

Personal favorite melee in the game is Kerillian's two-handed sword. Easy sweep and clear, plus accurate piercing heavy. Especially on Handmaiden. I am kind of a huge Elf-stan, it would seem. Shameful.

If they gave Kerillian a melee only class like a Wardancer, it would be the fastest I have ever spent money on this game.

Second only to if they made a Skink a new playable character.

Idk Skaven are still fairly silly in Vermintide. There is not a person in my playgroup who does not take delight in "catch-catch!" or "always sneaking stabbing". Skaven are loving weirdos.

Occasionally, you'll see a lone surviving rat pressing his back to a wall, trying to get away from you, whimpering "No... noooooooo..."

A Genestealer cult would be pretty rad though. Chaos never gets enough flavor to be a genuinely repped threat, and no one is brave enough to do a Slaaneshii incursion.

This doesn't excuse lack of Orks.

Seriously, I wanna hear a WAAAAAAAAGH thundering down a hallway as hordes of greenskins charge me with choppas and dakka, all while a Weirdboy special makes my teammate start shooting at us and a Nob jumps over a barrier and bumrushes someone to suplex them, all before we get to the boss, a Warboss who hallway through the fight summons a Truk that smashes through a wall with a bunch of grots manning big dakka while Stormboyz jump out of the top and try to kamikaze us and explode on death.

Is that too much to ask?

Saltz has always been on the road to being some kind of fallen doubter, if not an outright heretic. I get the feeling that he's listening to one of the voices we all hear down there.

Or he becomes a Stromcast Eternal.

I keep desperately hoping for more Vermintide peoples, but I just don't think it's in the cards at this point. I really wanted a Light or Celestial wizard, but... well, I doubt that'll happen.

Personally, I would have loved a Skink, because a). Cute wee beastie that's smart and interesting. b). Lizardmen are one of the great Order races. c). I mean, c'mon look at this little fucker:

Conversely, I'd also like gear choice to be slightly more of a factor than they are in current Wastes runs. Something along the lines of Hades, with giving a currency from runs that I can use to add abilities or stats when using certain gear, would be nice.

I wish I could install a "Light" version of the game that strips out most of the other modes, aside from the Chaos Wastes. I like the rest of the game myself, but I find I never play anything outside of the Wastes anymore, and I'd like the space back.

Noise Marines suck compared to all the other wild, weird, kinky poo poo Slaanesh has. I'd have preferred Tzeentch for the game myself. They have some units that just embody chaos with the aesthetics and outrageous mutations. Unfortunately, zombies have once more plagued humanity.

I wish they'd put out a cut down install of the game that only plays the Chaos Wastes, because I cannot justify the size of the base game's install when that's all I want to play, dammit.
