The combat looks super casual and dumbed down unfortunately, shooting round walls, seeing enemies behind cover, no recoil etc

Last thing I care about in RPG’s is combat really. I understand why people want innovative combat, but I’d rather them not blow the budget on something that isn’t the focus of the game.

It's a true RPG - you have hit points and each shot has a "roll" for damage. Don't blame the game for your lack of clarity on what it actually is.

As for the gunplay looking woeful - the big "This is not representative of actual gameplay/the finished project" that they plastered everywhere was clearly not big enough for everyone.

My take is every time they try to go in that direction (imrproved gunplay, etc.), they blow the budget on unnecessary crap and end up making a mediocre combat system anyways. That is not their strength.

Of course I know what they are and signify, I’m saying it’s a horrible design choice and looks tacky regardless.

Also the disclaimer at the top is put there as a failsafe so that when people criticise elements anyone can just say “well it’s not finished yet”.. which is fair enough but also requires a certain level of stupidness to assume they would show 45 minutes of gameplay if they weren’t reasonably satisfied with what they’re presenting.

It’s like when people go “it’s alpha/beta” out of some belief that something they dislike will change drastically before release when in fact reality and history shows this is rarely the case... especially with core game mechanics.

I think it’s delusional to think the gunplay will change drastically between now and release, tweaks sure but it’s pretty clear from the video the style of gunplay they are going for and I’m not a fan of that style.

Humble Bundle email says Warhammer Space Marine is free for another day or so. Not sure what hoops need to be jumped through or if my machine can run it well enough but I'm gonna try and grab it later

If you don't have a humble account, just sign one up and redeem the game.

It is an older game (released in 2011) so chances are you should be able to run it so long as you are not rocking a computer from the 00's

It’s got to be from at least 2012 as my boys were born in 2013 which stopped me spending as much, but probably older.

No benchmark site has a Radeon HD 6700. A 6700M, but not 6700. Do you mean a 6770??
