I am quietly really excited for this to come out. The original space marine was such a fun game. Honestly even if this just plays like a doom eternal reskin, it would still be a 7.5/10 for me.
Yeah I feel kinda the same, it doesn't need to be anything more than a very competent TPS action game for me to be satisfied.
Honestly you saying TPS just opened my third eye to what that genre of games even is… I loved gears of war
Oh, I'm glad something good came out of me doing that annoying internet thing of using an abbreviation without explaining what it means (for which I apologize).
It's kinda funny to call Space Marine a TPS since while, technically, it is, you kinda spend 60% of the time mashing the melee button, which is very much not doing the "S" part.
It did take me a second to realise it was “third person shooter” but the context made it easy to decipher!
Funny on the melee thing too, that’s how I feel about DOOM now. You spend it all in melee range and since melee heals you..
From the videos and knowing the developer, it's going to be more like World War Z but with cinematic finishers.
I do hope it's as fun as the first, but I'm concerned about Saber Interactive being the devs instead of Relic.
