Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • When you compare it to other games in this genre it comes up short. Vermitide, left 4 dead, Darktide, and even the new Pain Killer game offered more variety than FBC had
  • Darktide is still gaining its momentum, slowly, but it will one day be loved too.
  • I can do Auric Maelstrom on Darktide easy
  • I prefer darktide, but both games are great.
  • Darktide is super good but they both scratch a different itch

Cons

  • I don't really feel like Darktide necessarily needs a lot more depth, what it needs is content. It's really lacking in map variety. They're also really stingy with modifiers, so many of them are locked away in havoc with no way to play...
  • Game still feels essentially the same. We need the depth that Vermentide has. Darktide is like the adopted son they neglect.
  • Darktide has already shown they can use "brain chips" to increase their intelligence.
  • Have you tried Darktide?

I don't really feel like Darktide necessarily needs a lot more depth, what it needs is content. It's really lacking in map variety. They're also really stingy with modifiers, so many of them are locked away in havoc with no way to play them on auric or other difficulties.

I’ve played both and prefer Darktide, the combat feel just can’t be beat.

The gameplay loop in DT feels way more fun. And build craft is way more in depth too

Parent context: Game still feels essentially the same. We need the depth that Vermentide has. Darktide is like the adopted son they neglect. Reply: Idk I put 1500 hours into DT and only 250 into VT. For me it’s a lot more fun. I would love a chaos wastes type mode though as it’s kinda stale for me now.
