This game properly simulates what it is like to remind a cockroach that it was indeed Man that was created in God's image

"We have Space Marine 2 at home."
Jokes aside, this is great. It's like GTFO if stealth wasn't an option and you were built like a Ford F-150.

TLDR- This is a good game. A good Warhammer game and the closest I've seen to a good Aliens game. The environments are awe inspiring, dark, creepy, and feel great. The combat is fun and can be intense, though slower paced. The AI companions aren't perfect, but I like having them. I wish it had a manual save feature, but it does auto-save somewhat frequently.
Full Review:
This game is highly underrated. It's had a lot of negative comments which I don't quite understand. The atmosphere is amazing. They've captured the grim dark feeling of Warhammer very well, with a nice variety of ship locations like huge chapels, dark access tunnels, shrines, body pits, you name it.
The atmosphere is what I would expect from an Aliens game, done right. The combat is slower paced, which I think matches the kind of Space Marine you're playing. More the lumbering steam roller, then a run-and-gun type.
I personally really like having the two AI companions. It makes it feel less lonely while traveling and they help out a lot. Sure, the AI isn't perfect, but it works well enough for what I need them to do.
My only complaint would be the save feature. It auto saves at points, but is not real clear about when that is. And can be at unreliable times. This can make for long backtracking if you die at a bad spot. There is no manual save feature. For casual players like me, that's a must. It does auto-save when you teleport back to your ship, which is used to heal, res companions and change loadouts. This would work fine, but you only get a limited number of these "charges" per mission (I think 3). And they are long missions. So you can use it to save if you have to, but you'll be wasting a limited resource to do it.
Ultimately, great game, I've had lots of fun, and I'm going to continue playing. Give it the 2-hour shot to see if you like it.

Space Hulk: Deathwing Enhanced Edition is one of the rare FPS Warhammer games out there. You have to fight a lot of aliens in indoor places also dont forget to lock door behind you its important:
Pros:
+ graphics
+ core gameplay is fun
+ online coop (vortex mode is fun to unlock abilities)
+ gore is alright
+ 9 missions (4-6 hours) theres also Bonus Missions 10 of them with some extra content but its the same maps only with different quests
Cons:
- bots are really stupid and not helpful at all
- environment diversity is poor i know it takes place on a spaceship but still it's not that bad
At first i didnt liked it at all but over the time i understood how the game works and it was a little fun in online coop. Single Player is very boring in this game because of the super useless bots. Its not the best game at all but its ok.

Really not as bad as alot of people on the internet were saying. Only issue ive had so far has been performance, AI for the campaign bots is pretty meh but it goes both ways with the enemies acting a little silly at times as well. Very fun as long as you like slaughtering xenos and locking doors behind you.

Gameplay can get repetitive, but the 40k atmosphere & ship interiors are some of the best out there.
