They finally release a Death Korps of Krieg set and they inflate the prices. Why does it always have to be like this with Fatshark? Why can't I just compliment them on something without them pulling a fast one a few days later?

This is the type of company they chose to be. Especially after they sold out to Tencent.

They didn't even design it correctly, the air hose is missing.

The talent trees are a huge improvement, they allow varied playstyles and leveling up feels rewarding as most of the nodes give you significant bonuses. However, most of the other systems are still pretty bad. The map/difficulty selection is RNG, the weapon shop is RNG, crafting is RNG (stats gets rolled on a gun when you buy it so you might have to buy it multiple times to get what you want). Maps lack variety and identity, I can't name a single map or if somebody showed me screenshots of the game I couldn't tell you which missions they were taken from.

It's a shame because the combat is ridiculously fun and completely carries this game, it's like somebody at Fatshark thinks you need these MMOish type RNG carrot on a stick grinds to keep player retention instead of just a fun game, I just think it's off-putting as I have to go through the horrid crafting system every time I want to try a different weapon.

This game is what happens when the people in charge of monetization have no idea what they're doing. They just took a bunch of random mobile game mechanics intended to extend the game's lifespan and incentivize a cash shop, but had no idea how to combine them.

I started playing again. The game still isn't as good as Vermintide II in my opinion but at least with the latest update the performance is slightly better. Also, I'm loving the Ogryn with a gun build. I was planning on going for the giant anti-air gun but the shotgun-in-the-form-of-a-grenade-launcher, the kickback, has become my darling. I love the stun, cleave and sheer one shot damage of this beastie.
