https://go.twitch.tv/fatsharkgames This spear really looks poo poo I'm sorry. The guy hasn't explained a single new thing and there are hints of new mechanics in play and it's pissing me off.

The spawn of chaos boss is just magical. Get grabbed, take a load of damage, can't be freed. Owns.

Wonder if we'll see any beastmen, or if it's strictly Warriors of Chaos.

I'm reasonably excited to kill them, at least. They're fine when they're dying like the mooks they are, it's when the writers get a boner for Chaos *winning* that they really start to suck.

Mzbundifund posted:I'd be extremely surprised if we saw non-skaven enemies take a major role in V2. Skaven are the perfect mix of hilarious and easy to kill, but vast in numbers. Undead could fit the bill but I kind of hope we don't have undead because they're just so common as video game trash mobs. Warhammer Orks are way too beefy to be trash mobs, and they're so big they'd block sight lines all the time. Skaven have the nice feature that the trash rats are short but the dangerous rats are tall, so you can see them in the crowd. Just quoting to say how glad I am that this was wrong.

I'm not. Skaven are basically the perfect videogame enemies because there's infinity of them but they're lovely and die constantly. But unlike boring poo poo like zombies or basically anything else that fits that description, they have great personality so vermintide 1 wouldn't be the same without the focus on them.

Chaos are big and imposing and make for good minibosses, but yeah, if you end up fighting more marauders than clanrats, then you have a problem.

Chaos is generally lame, but at least they're adding cool poo poo like Bile Trolls and Spawn. If they add Blight Toads I may squeal a little.

I'll need to watch the rest of the stream after work but I like that they're decoupling weapon damage from weapon color. I'm hoping the career thing doesn't end up making a bigger impact than your weapon selection did in vermintide 1. Might sound weird but I was really hoping they wouldn't do something like that because I think the first game's system of all characters being equal with your weapon choice + skill completely deciding what you can do was perfect. I did not like the effect the skill trees had on payday 2 and felt like vermintide ended up the far superior game in the end.

I like Slayers as a concept but they don't fit Bardin. Dude's got nothing to be ashamed of. I hope Saltzpyre can also go Witch Hunter Captain and get a truly fantastic hat.

While the Chaos Spawn looked cool, I'm really not hot on the 'get grabbed and be locked in a long animation where you take a lot of unavoidable damage' thing. There needs to be a way to get knocked out of that grab even if it comes down to bombs or strength potions or something. Norse marauders as the new faceless chaff screen will probably work fine, especially if they are keeping clan and slaverats in and the AI director can ratchet between the three. If you can consider clanrats to be skavenslave++, then it would make sense to have Norse be clanrat++ and be a bit tougher and stronger. Lot of recycled assets so far, which is fine considering it's still a ways out. I'm sure (or at least hoping) they'll get those voice actors in to do new passes on some of the lines that are being reused from the first game. The spear seemed fine, moveset seemed kind of similar to a slightly slower WH Rapier and I'll bet it probably gets used in a similar fashion. Repeater crossbow is kind of a headscratcher from a lore perspective, but it would be kind of funny if the big character reveal for this game was that Kerellian was actually a dark elf in disguise (they do that kind of on the regular in lore IIRC, though mostly just dressing up as High Elves rather than Wood Elves) that happened to be in and around Athel Loren for whatever reason when she got whatever that curse that she is alluded to having in the first game.

I'd love it if Kerillian turned out to be a Naggarondite with a lovely dye job.

From the Website Kerillian seems to have fallen for Khaine in that Carrier. So she pretty much just became a Dark Elf.

I'm guessing there'll be a light, dark, and neutral option for all five. Like Bardin becoming Sad or Kerillian edgelording so hard she pledges herself to the Edgelord God.

The religion is hating rats.' Well option 1 is confirmed. He becomes a Bounty Hunter that wants to hunt down Skaven because the Rest of the Witch Hunter Order kept telling him not to talk about it. Sienna becomes a Battle Wizard to temper herself is one of hers. And Kruger is Knighted and starts climbing the political ladder reluctantly is one of his.

The religion is hating rats.' I mean, the blurb from the website makes it sound like Saltzpyre left the Witch Hunters and is now a bounty hunter, so he's taken a pretty significant step back in the social hierarchy of the Empire. That's made up for by Kruber being knighted, I guess.
