He should be better in every way since he underwent Primaris transformation

Yep, it sure does look like another Space Marine, the spectacle and visuals are gorgeous however.
Sound design is utterly underwhelming.

Its indeed tiresome. Unless its were chaos lite Drukari. Opportunistic dark Eldar pirates swooping in during a Tyrannid invasion to snatch the blessed McGuffin. Our valiant hero in pursuit gets captured and spirited away through the webway to the Dark City that is Commoragh and fights in the arena. The gauntlet is capped by dueling a graceful and lithe succubus.
Cliffhanger ending.
Personally I was relieved to find out it wasn't all Tyranids. They're a cool army, and terrifying, but story-wise they're far more interesting when they create an opportunity for someone else to manipulate the situation. And who better than the Changer?

Watched the gameplay trailer, and for once I am not optimistic about this. SM the first was a fun romp, with scrumptious bloodshed, punchy bolters and gory criticals. In the clip, the bolters do not bring enough boom to the table, and melee seemed more like a super-watered-down Platinum ordeal rather than intense chopping through waves of enemies.
One thing that seemed interesting was that your companions were marked with Ultramarinara emblems, which seems to suggest that you might get other chapters making an appearance as well.

The combat definitely lacks impact. How can they possibly overlook this?

By the Emperor, how do you fuck up something so essential?
IIRC in one of the books a thoroughly embarrassed Terminator had to be rescued by his brothers after he fell through a staircase.

Especially when Darktide exists and has the best depiction of a bolter. Just fucking copy it.
They better not fucking copy Darktide's monetization.

So it's sort of like a kid's sparkler toy that has a big sound effect, but does nothing, even if you're shooting a cardboard box. You 40k fags are lame as hell.

Bolters fire self-propelled projectiles, it would not sound anything like this. Also way too deep of a sound for the size, sounds like a tank firing.

Bolters use gyrojet rockets for ammo. Here's a real gyrojet pistol firing.
The one in the video I believe is .51 caliber. Bolters fire .75 caliber rounds so the sound wouldn't be too much louder than the real gyrojet rounds.
