New player who dosent quite get warhammer games; this IP shits out a bazillion warhammer games of all different genres every year, so logically most of them are shit right? Even on the play store I see theres warhammer slop mobile games, so spill the beans for me, is the warhammer IP basically like cod or ass creed at this point? Why do this company feel the need to spam release their ip with a bunch of different genres? How can these be quality games if they barely take any years in development?I've never played warhammer games truthfully, aside from vermintide which is good, but are the rest goyslop?
>>727649740Gladius is an amazing game, simply on the basis of its ai; which is some of the best in the 4x genre.
>>727649740The majority of warhammer video games are ass. Shovelware shit.Some, a few, are really good. GW has often seemed willing to lease the IP to any studio with a pulse.>Why do this company feel the need to spam release their ip with a bunch of different genres?Warhammer is primarily a Table Top franchise. That is the bread and butter. All the games and books are advertisements for the little plastic army dudes people assemble, paint, and smoosh into each other. A minimally viable product is acceptable so long as the IP lore is upheld... for the most part. >is the warhammer IP basically like cod or ass creed at this point?No. It is probably more comparable to Stat Wars. Yes, star wars is for and about the movies first but they have spread the IP to every niche and interest a nerd could have. That's what GW-warhammer is doing.
>>727650169What are the good warhammer games worth playing?
>>727649740Vermintide 2, and darktide are the best pve games ever made and I think that's a pretty objective opinion, nothing compares nor is there much competition.
>>727650417Not him but it depends on what kind of games you're looking for. Like that Anon said, there's pretty much a game for any genre you can think of. There's plenty of good ones, but most of them are pretty derivative of other game. Dawn of War is your standard RTS, Total Warhammer is just Total War but Warhammer, Space Marine 2 is your standard hack and slash. The only one I'd say stands out is Vermintide 2 (set in fantasy) which is heavily based off Left 4 Dead, but it has the benefit of being made in 2018, so a lot of the gameplay is smoothed out and you are given a lot of abilities and skill trees to work with which is really cool. Darktide is a lot more gun heavy than Vermintide 2, but its arguably shittier than Vermintide 2.
>>727650417vermintide, total war, darktide (kind of), dawn of war 1
>>727649924are you joking?
>make the lore stupidly complex and difficult to understand>wonder why nobody plays your shit
>>727651586No im not.
WH games have only started getting good in the last 7 years.Space Marine 2, Vermintide, Darktide, Hired Gun, Boltgun. It was trash for like 30 years other than Dawn of War and Total War
>>727651919The graphics and presentation is space marine 2 look super fucking cool but I can't get past the fact the gameplay is a basic bitch hack and slash type of deal
>>727649740Warhammer is mainly books, miniatures, and tabletop wargame. Games are secondary, and the owners give their IP to pretty much anyone. Almost every Warhammer game is made by different developers.
>>727649740most of them are shit, the only good ones are like, dawn of war 1/2, vermintide 1/2, total warhammer and mechanicus
